📄 原文摘要

In mobile and edge devices, always-on keyword spotting (KWS) is an essential function to detect wake-up words. Recent works achieved extremely low power dissipation down to ~500nW [1]. However, most of them adopt noise-dependent training, i.e. training for a specific signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and noise type [1], and therefore their accuracies degrade for different SNR levels and noise types that are not targeted in the training (Fig. 9.9.1, top left). To improve robustness, so-called noise-independent training can be considered, which is to use the training data that includes all the possible SNR levels and noise types [2]. But, this approach is challenging for an ultra-low-power device since it demands a large neural network to learn all the possible features. A neural network of a fixed size has its own memory capacity limit and reaches a plateau in accuracy if it has to learn more than its limit (Fig. 9.9.1, top right). On the other hand, it
