Abstract

Embodiments of present disclosure relates to a voice assistant device and method for controlling the voice assistant device. The voice assistant device comprising receiver configured to receive at least one voice input from user, when operated in wake-up mode. Intent associated with the at least one voice input from the at least one user. Further, probability of issuance of a subsequent voice input from the at least one user is determined based on at least one of the intent, historic data and one or more contextual factors. An extended wake-up duration of the voice assistant device is estimated, when the probability is greater than a predefined threshold value. Further, duration of the wake-up mode is extended for the extended wake-up duration to receive the subsequent voice input from theat least one user.

Description

technical field [0001] The present subject matter generally relates to digital assistance systems, and more particularly, but not exclusively, to apparatus and methods for controlling voice assistance devices. Background technique [0002] Voice assistants are digital assistants that use speech recognition, speech synthesis and natural language processing (NLP) to provide services through specific applications. A trigger word associated with the voice assistance device is used to trigger the voice assistance device to switch from the sleep mode to the wake mode. The user can make a request to the voice-assistant device by first speaking the trigger word, followed by the request. [0003] During, and especially while a conversation is in progress with the voice-assistant device, the user may have to repeatedly keep speaking the trigger word to keep the voice-assistant device in the awake mode. With this approach, the context of the conversation can be maintained by the voic...
