GB/Z 177.2-2026 Artificial intelligence terminal intelligence classification — Part 2: General requirements
3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in GB/Z 177.1-2026, GB/Z 177.2-2026 and the following apply.
3.1 speech wakeup; voice trigger
The process in which a speech interaction system, while in an audio stream monitoring state, switches to another processing state, such as command word recognition or continuous speech recognition, after detecting a specific feature or event.
[Source: GB/T 36464.2-2018, 3.13]
3.2 wakeup word
A specific word or phrase used by a user to wake up a device and initiate speech interaction.
3.3 speech recognition
The process of converting human voice signals into text or commands.
[Source: GB/T 21023-2007, 3.1]
3.4 speech synthesis
The process of synthesising human speech by mechanical or electronic methods.
NOTE: The speech produced by this process is called synthetic speech, as distinguished from natural speech produced by human vocal organs, and is sometimes also called artificial speech.
