Claim 7:
8. A system comprising:
a processor; and
system memory coupled to the processor and storing instructions configured to cause the processor to:
detect periods of voice activity and periods of no voice activity within a plurality of spoken words;
parse the plurality of spoken words according to a first grammar and a second grammar determining whether the plurality of spoken words is a complete parse according to the first grammar and a prefix to another complete parse according to the second grammar;
access a no voice activity detection (NVAD) cut-off period calculated from prior speech; and
scale the NVAD cut-off period, which prevents pre-mature cutting off slow voice activity and improves responsiveness to fast voice activity, based at least in part on determining whether the plurality of spoken words is a complete parse according to the first grammar and a prefix to another complete parse according to the second grammar.
