    Abstract: A method for adapting a guest mode for portable speakers includes obtaining a current state of an assistant-enabled device while a guest mode is enabled. Here, the assistant-enabled device is configured to allow a digital assistant to fulfill queries spoken by speakers who are not enrolled users when the guest mode is enabled. Based on the current state of the assistant-enabled device, the method includes disabling the guest mode to suppress fulfillment of queries spoken by speakers who are not enrolled users. While the guest mode is disabled, the method includes receiving audio data corresponding to a query, the query including a command for the digital assistant to perform an action, performing speaker identification to determine that a speaker of the query is not an enrolled user, and based on determining that the speaker of the query is not an enrolled user, suppressing fulfillment of the action.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides computer-implemented methods, systems, and devices for detecting a vehicle type in order to adapt directions and navigation instructions mitigating noise in a signal. A computing device initiates, in response to user input, a navigation application. The computing device further detects one or more vehicle type identification signals associated with a vehicle. The computing device further automatically determines, using the one or more signals, a vehicle type associated with the vehicle. The computing device further receives from the navigation application, navigation information, wherein the navigation information is customized based on the determined vehicle type.

    Abstract: User interaction may be supported with an audio presentation by an automated assistant, and in particular with the spoken content of such an audio presentation that is presented at particular points within the audio presentation. Analysis of an audio presentation may be performed to identify one or more entities addressed by, mentioned by, or otherwise associated with the audio presentation, and utterance classification may be performed to determine whether an utterance received during playback of the audio presentation is directed to the audio presentation, and in some instances, to a particular entity and/or point of playback in the audio presentation, thereby enabling a suitable response to be generated to the utterance.

    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: Implementations described herein relate to receiving user input directed to an automated assistant, processing the user input to determine whether data from a server and/or third-party application is needed to perform certain fulfillment of an assistant command included in the user input, and generating a prompt that requests a user consent to transmitting of a request to the server and/or the third-party application to obtain the data needed to perform the certain fulfillment. In implementations where the user consents, the data can be obtained and utilized to perform the certain fulfillment. In implementations where the user does not consent, client data can be generated locally at a client device and utilized to perform alternate fulfillment of the assistant command. In various implementations, the request transmitted to the server and/or third-party application can be modified based on ambient noise captured when the user input is received.

    Abstract: Techniques for saving mobile device power during turn by turn navigation sessions are provided. An example method includes receiving an indication of an origin location and a destination location via a navigation application operating on a mobile computing device; generating a navigation route based on the origin location and the destination location using the navigation application, including indications of one or more maneuvers required to be performed by a user; comparing a remaining battery power level associated with the mobile computing device to a predicted processing power required for the navigation application to perform one or more functions related to the navigation route; and causing the navigation application to operate in a power-saving mode based on the comparison. Operating the navigation application in the power-saving mode may include temporarily suspending at least one of the one or more functions of related to the navigation route.

    Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that facilitates the creation of complex messages from user input(s) to the automated assistant. Each message can be created according to a respective template that is selected based on user input that directs the automated assistant to communicate a message to a recipient. Furthermore, sections of a template can be designated for certain content based on prior messages communicated by one or more users to one or more recipients. In this way, in response to a user requesting that the automated assistant send a message, the automated assistant can select a related template and fill out the template accordingly. In some instances, content that is assigned to certain sections of the selected template can come from a variety of different sources and/or may not be explicitly specified in the request from the user to the automated assistant.

    Abstract: To determine whether a user is authorized to make a particular audio request during navigation, a client device receives a request for navigation directions from a starting location to a destination location. The client device provides a set of navigation directions for traversing to the destination location along a route. During a navigation session, an audio request related to the route is received from a user. The client device determines an authorization level of the user based on the audio request, and provides a response to the request based on the authorization level of the user.
