US Patent 12080276 Adapting automated speech recognition parameters based on hotword properties

A method for optimizing speech recognition includes receiving a first acoustic segment characterizing a hotword detected by a hotword detector in streaming audio captured by a user device, extracting one or more hotword attributes from the first acoustic segment, and adjusting, based on the one or more hotword attributes extracted from the first acoustic segment, one or more speech recognition parameters of an automated speech recognition (ASR) model. After adjusting the speech recognition parameters of the ASR model, the method also includes processing, using the ASR model, a second acoustic segment to generate a speech recognition result. The second acoustic segment characterizes a spoken query/command that follows the first acoustic segment in the streaming audio captured by the user device.
