Ant-Brain / EfficientWord-Net

OneShot Learning-based hotword detection.

Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does

What it does

Home assistants require special phrases called hotwords to get activated (e.g., "OK Google"). EfficientWord-Net is a hotword detection engine based on few-shot learning that allows developers to add custom hotwords to their programs without extra charges. The library is purely written in Python and uses Google's TFLite implementation for faster real-time inference. It is inspired by FaceNet's Siamese Network Architecture and performs best when 3-4 hotword samples are collected directly from the user.
