HYBRID PERFORMANCE SCALING OR SPEECH RECOGNITION
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- recording one or more non-tactile inputs to a device with one or more sensors, wherein the one or more inputs are recorded to a first memory, wherein the device is operating in a low-power state in which power is provided to a first processor and the first memory;
generating one or more first confidence scores, wherein each of the one or more first confidence scores is a measure of a degree of similarity between a corresponding recorded non-tactile input and a reference input stored in the first memory;
initiating an intermediate-power state of the device when the first confidence score is above a first threshold level, wherein the intermediate-power state comprises providing power to at least a second processor, wherein the second processor has a greater amount of available processing capability than the first processor;
generating one or more second confidence scores with the second processor, wherein each of the one or more second confidence scores is a measure of a degree of similarity between each recorded non-tactile input and a reference input;
generating a command signal that instructs the client device to execute one or more operations that are associated with the reference input when the second confidence score is above a second threshold.

Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure describe methods and apparatuses for executing operations on a client device platform that is operating in a low-power state. A first analysis may be used to assign a first confidence score to a recorded non-tactile input. When the first confidence score is above a first threshold an intermediate-power state may be activated. A second more detailed analysis may then assign a second confidence score to the non-tactile input. When the second confidence score is above a second threshold, then the operation is initiated. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.
