1. A method for reducing the amount of speech data for detecting desired speakers, comprising: receiving a plurality of speech data from a plurality of speakers using a computer program stored on a computer; labeling the speech data using the computer program; priority ranking the labeled speech data using a speaker dependent filter for each of the speakers using the computer program; generating the priority ranking by prioritizing the labeled speech data according to a performance criterion for each of the plurality of speakers using the computer program; analyzing the labeled speech data according to the priority ranking of the labeled speech data for a specific speaker; filtering out specified lower priority labeled speech data such that less of the speech data is analyzed; and adjusting the step of filtering out specified lower priority labeled speech data to attain a specified speech data throughput.
