Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, receiving audio data; determining that an initial portion of the audio data corresponds to an initial portion of a hotword; in response to determining that the initial portion of the audio data corresponds to the initial portion of the hotword, selecting, from among a set of one or more actions that are performed when the entire hotword is detected, a subset of the one or more actions; and causing one or more actions of the subset to be performed.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for verifying an identity of a user. The methods, systems, and apparatus include actions of receiving a request for a verification phrase for verifying an identity of a user. Additional actions include, in response to receiving the request for the verification phrase for verifying the identity of the user, identifying subwords to be included in the verification phrase and in response to identifying the subwords to be included in the verification phrase, obtaining a candidate phrase that includes at least some of the identified subwords as the verification phrase. Further actions include providing the verification phrase as a response to the request for the verification phrase for verifying the identity of the user.
Abstract:
An example method comprises determining, by a computing device, an indication of video content, determining, by the computing device and based at least in part on the indication, one or more candidate albums, selecting, by the computing device, a particular candidate album of the one or more candidate albums based at least in part on a match between an audio fingerprint of an audio track included in the video content and an audio fingerprint of an audio track included in the particular candidate album, and sending, by the computing device, a message that associates the video content with the particular candidate album.

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for hotword detection on multiple devices are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving, by a first computing device, audio data that corresponds to an utterance. The actions further include determining a first value corresponding to a likelihood that the utterance includes a hotword. The actions further include receiving a second value corresponding to a likelihood that the utterance includes the hotword, the second value being determined by a second computing device. The actions further include comparing the first value and the second value. The actions further include based on comparing the first value to the second value, initiating speech recognition processing on the audio data.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for designating certain voice commands as hotwords. The methods, systems, and apparatus include actions of receiving a hotword followed by a voice command. Additional actions include determining that the voice command satisfies one or more predetermined criteria associated with designating the voice command as a hotword, where a voice command that is designated as a hotword is treated as a voice input regardless of whether the voice command is preceded by another hotword. Further actions include, in response to determining that the voice command satisfies one or more predetermined criteria associated with designating the voice command as a hotword, designating the voice command as a hotword.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for obtaining, for each of multiple words or sub-words, audio data corresponding to multiple users speaking the word or sub-word; training, for each of the multiple words or sub-words, a pre-computed hotword model for the word or sub-word based on the audio data for the word or sub-word; receiving a candidate hotword from a computing device; identifying one or more pre-computed hotword models that correspond to the candidate hotword; and providing the identified, pre-computed hotword models to the computing device.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for unified recognition of speech and music. One method includes an operation for starting an audio recognition mode by a computing device while receiving an audio stream. Segments of the audio stream are analyzed as the audio stream is received, where the analysis includes simultaneous checking for speech and music. Further, the method includes an operation for determining a first confidence score for speech and a second confidence score for music. As the audio stream is received, additional segments are analyzed until the end of the audio stream or until the first and second confidence scores indicate that the audio stream has been identified as speech or music. Further, results are presented on a display based on the identification of the audio stream, including text entered if the audio stream was speech or song information if the audio stream was music.
Abstract:
Down scoring overcrowded bands via IDF weighting scores provides a soft way to reduce the effect of common bands from Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) processes. An index component indexes live video references of a live streaming infrastructure pathway process in a reference index. A scoring component scores a set of bands with a set of inverse document frequency (IDF) weighting scores in the reference index. A high score is generated for bands that are featured in a small number of references and a low score is generated for bands featured in a high number of references.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided herein relating to audio classification. Genres of music can be identified by detecting unique spectral features inherent to those genres. One example genre detected is techno music. Two dimensional discrete cosine transforms can be generated for consecutive windows of the spectrogram or chromagram. A max value of the energy of portions of the two dimensional discrete cosine transforms can be determined. The max value can be normalized and aggregated with max values related to neighboring windows. If the aggregate scores meet a genre threshold, the audio sample, or portions thereof, can be associated with a genre of music.
