Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for training a deep neural network. One of the methods includes training a deep neural network with a first training set by adjusting values for each of a plurality of weights included in the neural network, and training the deep neural network to determine a probability that data received by the deep neural network has features similar to key features of one or more keywords or key phrases, the training comprising providing the deep neural network with a second training set and adjusting the values for a first subset of the plurality of weights, wherein the second training set includes data representing the key features of the one or more keywords or key phrases.
Abstract:
This document generally describes systems, methods, devices, and other techniques related to speaker verification, including (i) training a neural network for a speaker verification model, (ii) enrolling users at a client device, and (iii) verifying identities of users based on characteristics of the users' voices. Some implementations include a computer-implemented method. The method can include receiving, at a computing device, data that characterizes an utterance of a user of the computing device. A speaker representation can be generated, at the computing device, for the utterance using a neural network on the computing device. The neural network can be trained based on a plurality of training samples that each: (i) include data that characterizes a first utterance and data that characterizes one or more second utterances, and (ii) are labeled as a matching speakers sample or a non-matching speakers sample.
Abstract:
A speech recognition process may perform the following operations: performing a preliminary recognition process on first audio to identify candidates for the first audio; generating first templates corresponding to the first audio, where each first template includes a number of elements; selecting second templates corresponding to the candidates, where the second templates represent second audio, and where each second template includes elements that correspond to the elements in the first templates; comparing the first templates to the second templates, where comparing comprises includes similarity metrics between the first templates and corresponding second templates; applying weights to the similarity metrics to produce weighted similarity metrics, where the weights are associated with corresponding second templates; and using the weighted similarity metrics to determine whether the first audio corresponds to the second audio.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for processing multilingual DNN acoustic models are described. An example method may include receiving training data that includes a respective training data set for each of two or more or languages. A multilingual deep neural network (DNN) acoustic model may be processed based on the training data. The multilingual DNN acoustic model may include a feedforward neural network having multiple layers of one or more nodes. Each node of a given layer may connect with a respective weight to each node of a subsequent layer, and the multiple layers of one or more nodes may include one or more shared hidden layers of nodes and a language-specific output layer of nodes corresponding to each of the two or more languages. Additionally, weights associated with the multiple layers of one or more nodes of the processed multilingual DNN acoustic model may be stored in a database.
