    Abstract: Disclosed are an electronic apparatus, a control method thereof, and a computer program product for the same, the electronic apparatus including: a receiver comprising receiving circuitry configured to receive a sound; and a processor configured to: identify with a given sensitivity whether a characteristic of a received sound corresponds to a voice command of a user in response to the sound being received through the receiver, identify the voice command based on identifying that the characteristic of the received sound corresponds to the voice command, and perform an operation corresponding to the identified voice command, and change the sensitivity based on identifying that the characteristic of the received sound does not correspond to the voice command. Thus, the electronic apparatus performs the optimum and/or improved audio process by properly controlling the sensitivity based on the circumstances.

    Abstract: An electronic device for speech recognition includes a multi-channel microphone array required for remote speech recognition. The electronic device improves efficiency and performance of speech recognition of the electronic device in a space where noise other than speech to be recognized exists. A control method includes receiving a plurality of audio signals output from a plurality of sources through a plurality of microphones and analyzing the audio signals and obtaining information on directions in which the audio signals are input and information on input times of the audio signals. A target source for speech recognition among the plurality of sources is determined on the basis of the obtained information on the directions in which the plurality of audio signals are input, and the obtained information on the input times of the plurality of audio signals, and an audio signal obtained from the determined target source is processed.
