24. An apparatus, comprising:
-
a processor; a plurality of filters configured to filter one or more frames of audio data to produce energies of filtered audio data independent of whether the processor is in a low-power state or in an active state; a converter configured to generate audio feature data based on the energies of the filtered audio data; and a transformer configured to apply a transform function to the audio feature data to generate transformed data, wherein, the processor is configured to perform one or more operations on the transformed data after transitioning out of the low-power state to the active state. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27, 28)

29. An apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to; dynamically switch between operating in a first mode and operating in a second mode based on an application context of the processor; retrieve audio feature data from a buffer after transitioning out of a low-power state, the audio feature data indicating features of audio data received by a coder/decoder (CODEC) while the processor is in the low-power state; and analyze the audio feature data, wherein a ratio of CODEC activity to processor activity in the first mode is greater than a ratio of CODEC activity to processor activity in the second mode. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34)

35. An apparatus comprising:
-
means for receiving one or more frames of audio data; means for filtering the one or more frames of audio data to produce filtered audio data independent of whether a processor is in a low-power state or in an active state; means for generating audio feature data based on the energies of the filtered audio data; means for transforming the audio feature data to generate transformed data; and means for performing one or more operations on the transformed data after the processor transitions out of the low-power state to the active state. - View Dependent Claims (36)

37. A non-transitory processor-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
-
dynamically switch between operating in a first mode and operating in a second mode, wherein a ratio of coder/decoder (CODEC) activity to processor activity in the first mode is greater than a ratio of CODEC activity to processor activity in the second mode; transition out of a low-power state during a duty cycle; analyze audio feature data that is extracted during the low-power state; and transition back into the low-power state. - View Dependent Claims (38)

39. A method comprising
receiving sound data at a first component of an electronic device; -
performing, at the first component, at least one signal detection operation on the sound data; and selectively activating a second component of the electronic device based on a result of the at least one signal detection operation, wherein the second component when active consumes more power at the electronic device than the first component when active. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41, 42, 43, 44)
