User-defined keyword spotting on a resource-constrained edge device is challenging. However, keywords are often bounded by a maximum keyword length, which has been largely under-leveraged in prior works. Our analysis of keyword-length distribution shows that user-defined keyword spotting can be treated as a length-constrained problem, eliminating the need for aggregation over variable text length. This leads to our proposed method for efficient keyword spotting, SLiCK (exploiting Subsequences for Length-Constrained Keyword spotting). We further introduce a subsequence-level matching scheme to…
