Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional speech recognition systems require users to repeatedly utter a wake-up word for each command, leading to user inconvenience and increased processing costs when performing multiple actions within the same domain.

Innovation Solution

An electronic device that determines a recommended command by analyzing user voice inputs and performs speech recognition without a wake-up word using concurrent wake-up technology, matching the recommended command to a set wake-up word and storing it for subsequent use.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If conventional speech recognition requires wake-up word for each command, then speech recognition accuracy is maintained, but user convenience deteriorates and processing costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser convenienceVSAvoidtime for repeated wake-up word input
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of user voice input patterns to predict upcoming commands within the same domain, preparing recommended commands in advance. This allows the system to recognize subsequent commands without requiring repeated wake-up words, as the prediction mechanism is already activated from the initial wake-up word recognition.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements a feedback loop where each recognized command within the same domain reinforces the prediction model for subsequent commands. The system continuously learns from the sequence of commands and adjusts its prediction accuracy, creating a self-improving mechanism that reduces the need for repeated wake-up words while maintaining recognition accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Reliability

If wake-up word is required for each command, then system reliability is maintained, but processing costs and resource usage increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvespeech recognition reliabilityVSAvoidprocessing resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of requiring full wake-up word processing for every command, the system applies partial action by using lightweight prediction mechanisms for commands within the same domain. The full speech recognition processing is only activated when the prediction confidence is low or when domain switching occurs, thus reducing overall processing resource consumption while maintaining reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

Solution Approach 2:

The wake-up word recognition mechanism serves multiple functions: it activates speech recognition mode, initiates domain identification, and starts the prediction mechanism. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate processing steps, thereby lowering overall resource consumption while maintaining system reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Measurement precision

If wake-up word must be uttered for each command, then command accuracy is ensured, but operation complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommand recognition accuracyVSAvoidsystem operation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments command recognition into two stages: prediction stage for commands within the same domain (where wake-up word is not needed) and full recognition stage for domain-switching commands (where wake-up word is required). This segmentation maintains accuracy for predicted commands while reducing operational complexity by eliminating redundant wake-up word requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically adjusts its operation mode based on the predicted command domain. When the predicted domain matches the current domain, the system operates in a simplified mode without requiring wake-up words. When domain switching is detected, it transitions to full recognition mode. This dynamic adjustment reduces operational complexity while preserving accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
