Problems solved by technology

Due to the huge amount of calculation of the DNN model, the current speech recognition calculation is mainly carried out through the cloud server. Huge, and the power consumption is also very high, and it also needs to consume a huge network bandwidth, and the recognition calculation cannot be performed when there is no network or the network is disconnected
If a system-on-a-chip (SoC) integrating single-core or multi-core high-performance CPU or GPU and digital signal processing (DSP) core is used locally for calculation, only small DNN model calculations can be performed, or due to calculation power consumption and The cost is huge, which has a great impact on the competitiveness of end products
[0003] There are also some chips on the market that use non-DNN model methods such as the Gaussian mixture model method. Although this method has a small amount of calculation, it can be undertaken by ordinary CPU cores, but the recognition performance is much worse than the speech recognition method based on the DNN model.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electronic technology, in particular to an intelligent voice recognition system and method. Background technique [0002] With the breakthrough of artificial intelligence algorithm, deep neural network (DNN) has been applied in speech intelligent recognition, which has greatly improved the accuracy of speech recognition, making speech recognition gradually popularized and applied in various fields in the past two years. Due to the huge amount of calculation of the DNN model, the current speech recognition calculation is mainly carried out through the cloud server. It is huge, and the power consumption is extremely high, and it also needs to consume a huge network bandwidth, and the recognition calculation cannot be performed without the network or when the network is disconnected. If a system-on-chip (SoC) integrating single-core or multi-core high-performance CPU or GPU and digital signal processing (DSP) core is...
