Abstract: Methods and systems for sharing of adapted voice profiles are provided. The method may comprise receiving, at a computing system, one or more speech samples, and the one or more speech samples may include a plurality of spoken utterances. The method may further comprise determining, at the computing system, a voice profile associated with a speaker of the plurality of spoken utterances, and including an adapted voice of the speaker. Still further, the method may comprise receiving, at the computing system, an authorization profile associated with the determined voice profile, and the authorization profile may include one or more user identifiers associated with one or more respective users. Yet still further, the method may comprise the computing system providing the voice profile to at least one computing device associated with the one or more respective users, based at least in part on the authorization profile.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for detecting hotwords using a server. One of the methods includes receiving an audio signal encoding one or more utterances including a first utterance; determining whether at least a portion of the first utterance satisfies a first threshold of being at least a portion of a key phrase; in response to determining that at least the portion of the first utterance satisfies the first threshold of being at least a portion of a key phrase, sending the audio signal to a server system that determines whether the first utterance satisfies a second threshold of being the key phrase, the second threshold being more restrictive than the first threshold; and receiving tagged text data representing the one or more utterances encoded in the audio signal when the server system determines that the first utterance satisfies the second threshold.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for language modeling of complete language sequences. Training data indicating language sequences is accessed, and counts for a number of times each language sequence occurs in the training data are determined. A proper subset of the language sequences is selected, and a first component of a language model is trained. The first component includes first probability data for assigning scores to the selected language sequences. A second component of the language model is trained based on the training data, where the second component includes second probability data for assigning scores to language sequences that are not included in the selected language sequences. Adjustment data that normalizes the second probability data with respect to the first probability data is generated, and the first component, the second component, and the adjustment data are stored.

Abstract: Methods, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for improving speech recognition based on external data sources. In one aspect, a method includes obtaining an initial candidate transcription of an utterance using an automated speech recognizer and identifying, based on a language model that is not used by the automated speech recognizer in generating the initial candidate transcription, one or more terms that are phonetically similar to one or more terms that do occur in the initial candidate transcription. Additional actions include generating one or more additional candidate transcriptions based on the identified one or more terms and selecting a transcription from among the candidate transcriptions.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for processing spoken query terms. In one aspect, a method includes performing speech recognition on an audio signal to select two or more textual, candidate transcriptions that match a spoken query term, and to establish a speech recognition confidence value for each candidate transcription, obtaining a search history for a user who spoke the spoken query term, where the search history references one or more past search queries that have been submitted by the user, generating one or more n-grams from each candidate transcription, where each n-gram is a subsequence of n phonemes, syllables, letters, characters, words or terms from a respective candidate transcription, and determining, for each n-gram, a frequency with which the n-gram occurs in the past search queries, and a weighting value that is based on the respective frequency.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a teleconferencing system that may use a virtual participant processor to translate language content of the teleconference into each participant's spoken language without additional user inputs. The virtual participant processor may connect to the teleconference as do the other participants. The virtual participant processor may intercept all text or audio data that was previously exchanged between the participants may now be intercepted by the virtual participant processor. Upon obtaining a partial or complete language recognition result or making a language preference determination, the virtual participant processor may call a translation engine appropriate for each of the participants. The virtual participant processor may send the resulting translation to a teleconference management processor. The teleconference management processor may deliver the respective translated text or audio data to the appropriate participant.

Abstract: A system is configured to receive a first string corresponding to an interpretation of a natural-language user voice entry; provide a representation of the first string as feedback to the natural-language user voice entry; receive, based on the feedback, a second string corresponding to a natural-language corrective user entry, where the natural-language corrective user entry may correspond to a correction to the natural-language user voice entry; parse the second string into one or more tokens; determine at least one corrective instruction from the one or more tokens of the second string; generate, from at least a portion of each of the first and second strings and based on the at least one corrective instruction, candidate corrected user entries; select a corrected user entry from the candidate corrected user entries; and output the selected, corrected user entry.
