  • Neural networks for speaker verification
    Patent number: 10325602
    Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, and other techniques for training and using a speaker verification neural network. A computing device may receive data that characterizes a first utterance. The computing device provides the data that characterizes the utterance to a speaker verification neural network. Subsequently, the computing device obtains, from the speaker verification neural network, a speaker representation that indicates speaking characteristics of a speaker of the first utterance. The computing device determines whether the first utterance is classified as an utterance of a registered user of the computing device. In response to determining that the first utterance is classified as an utterance of the registered user of the computing device, the device may perform an action for the registered user of the computing device.

  • Media Planning System
    Publication number: 20190147500
    Abstract: A media planning system is provided to generate a media plan. The system can employ a combination of a pre-optimization algorithm and an optimization algorithm to optimize a media plan with recommended placement block. The optimized media plan is generated based upon a fitness value using various media data and plan parameters.
    Type: Application
