The identified portions may be redacted and the redacted normalized text provided to a destination.

Abstract: In a network device, unidirectional port aggregation can be used by aggregating corresponding ports that represent a single underlay next hop. A common layer 2 address (e.g., Media Access Control (MAC) address) can be shared across aggregated destination network devices to allow these network devices to accept traffic forwarded over the unidirectional multi-destination bond port. Port aggregations (e.g., “bonds”, “trunks”, etc.) are controlled by dynamic route updates propagating through a network of devices. Dynamic route updates can be implemented as part of routing protocols. The route updates can be interpreted by the network switches as including a port aggregation signal. Policy may be applied to these route updates to adjust the behavior of the port aggregation mechanism. The resulting port aggregation is installed in the forwarding table of network devices so that the corresponding prefixes resolve to the underlay next hop representing the aggregated port.

Abstract: A system and method for temporarily disabling keyword detection to avoid detection of machine-generated keywords. A local device may operate two keyword detectors. The first keyword detector operates on input audio data received by a microphone to capture keywords uttered by a user. In these instances, the keyword may be detected by the first detector and the audio data may be indicated for speech processing. The system may determine output audio data responsive to the input audio data. The local device may process the output audio data to determine that it also includes the keyword. The device may then disable the first keyword detector while the output audio data is played back by an audio speaker of the local device. Thus the local device may avoid detection of a keyword originating from the output audio. The first keyword detector may be reactivated after a time interval during which the keyword might be detectable in the output audio.

Abstract: Described herein is a system for encoding audio watermarks with frequency extensions to enable enhanced watermark detection. An extended audio watermark may include an existing audio watermark and a duplicate audio watermark, enabling backwards compatibility with existing watermark detection while also enabling enhanced watermark detection with increased accuracy. For example, embedding the extended audio watermark enables (i) limited devices to perform watermark detection to detect the existing audio watermark, and (ii) improved devices to perform enhanced watermark detection to detect the extended audio watermark. As the extended audio watermark includes redundancy in the form of duplicate audio watermark(s), an accuracy of performing enhanced watermark detection is increased relative to detecting the existing audio watermark alone.

The predictions may then be used to configure or reconfigure processing cluster(s) of the database system.

Abstract: Techniques for determining a command or intent likely to be subsequently invoked by a user of a system are described. A user inputs a command (either via a spoken utterance or textual input) to a system. The system determines content responsive to the command. The system also determines a second command or corresponding intent likely to be invoked by the user subsequent to the previous command. Such determination may involve analyzing pairs of intents, with each pair being associated with a probability that one intent of the pair will be invoked by a user subsequent to a second intent of the pair. The system then outputs first content responsive to the first command and second content soliciting the user as to whether the system to execute the second command.

The platform may identify: (i) a domain of a voice command within the speech based on the ASR results and based on context information associated with the speech or the user, and (ii) an intent of the voice command. In response to identifying the intent, the platform may perform a corresponding action, such as streaming audio to the device, setting a reminder for the user, purchasing an item on behalf of the user, making a reservation for the user or launching an application for the user. The speech recognition platform, in combination with the device, may therefore facilitate efficient interactions between the user and a voice-controlled device.

Abstract: Managed lifecycle roles are disclosed. Managed lifecycle roles may be used for secure credential vending or otherwise. For instance, an entity (e.g., administrator or other entity) requests, via an interface of a role manager, creation of a role associated with a lifecycle definition (e.g., an expression of an enforceable expiration of the role or similar characteristic). The role manager stores the role and role lifecycle definition to a data store. Another entity requests to use the role to perform some operation with respect to a resource. A credential service validates the request against a lifecycle definition for the role (and against an access control list, in some examples) and responds to valid requests with credentials useable to perform the operation with respect to the resource. The other entity uses the credentials to perform the operation with respect to the resource. A sweep process manages attributes of the roles.

Abstract: An agent running on an IoT device of a client's network may receive a default password from a provider network and use the received default password to determine whether the password assigned to the IoT device has been changed from the default password to a different one. The agent may retrieve a salt string, a hashing algorithm, and a hashed string from a password database of the IoT device, combine the salt string with the received default password to generate a salted default password, and apply the hashing algorithm to the salted default password to generate a new hashed string. The agent may then compare the new hashed string to the hashed string retrieved from the password database. If they match, then the agent sends an indication to the provider network that the default password is still assigned to the IoT device.

Abstract: Techniques for adaptive network connectivity in a cloud provider network are described. A managed networking service obtains metadata associated with an application deployed in the cloud provider network and uses the metadata to construct a graph including application components and network components. Network flows are identified from the metadata and used to construct flow metadata that is linked to paths of the graph. The flow metadata is further enhanced with capability information for the network components on the path. The graph can be efficiently analyzed to identify alternative, superior networking configurations for the application.

Abstract: Anomalous interactions with a website or other system may be detected based on the types of characteristics associated with previous anomalous interactions, independent of the values associated with those characteristics. Historical data is used to determine characteristics of interactions, each characteristic having a type and a value. For historical interactions in which a set of characteristic values are associated with a potentially anomalous interaction, the characteristic types are analyzed in subsequent interactions. If values for those characteristic types occur at a frequency greater than a threshold frequency for a set of subsequent interactions, this may indicate that the interactions are anomalous. Use of the characteristic types for this purpose, rather than historical characteristic values, enables anomalous interactions to be detected independent of the characteristic values associated with the interactions.

Abstract: A sensor head transitions between a retracted and extended state. While retracted, sensors are covered. While extended, the sensors are exposed and may be used to acquire sensor data about the physical space. A force applied by a user, or a received command, may initiate transition. For example, a user may press on the sensor head to initiate retraction or extension. A motor provides a force to move the sensor head and generate haptic feedback, while a position encoder determines a displacement of the sensor head due to an external force being applied. Different applications of force by the user to the sensor head may result in different operations by the device. For example, a short push may retract the sensor head and disable the sensors for a specified time interval. In comparison a long push may retract the sensor head and disable the sensors until a specified clock time.

Abstract: A neural text-to-speech system may be configured to emphasize words. Applying emphasis where appropriate enables the TTS system to better reproduce prosodic characteristics of human speech. Emphasis may make the resulting synthesized speech more understandable and engaging than synthesized speech lacking emphasis. Emphasis may be manually annotated to, and/or predicted from, a source text (e.g., a book). In some implementations, the system may use a generative model such as a variational autoencoder to generate word acoustic embeddings indicating how emphasis is to be reflected in the synthesized speech. A phoneme encoder of the TTS system may process phonemes to generate phoneme embeddings. A decoder may process the word acoustic embeddings and the phoneme embeddings to generate spectrogram data representing the synthesized speech.

Abstract: A feature deployment service of a provider network may deploy feature processing units (FPUs) to implement data processing features at both a provider network and edge devices. The use of FPUs may allow a client to use new features at the edge, without delays due to compliance/testing or software upgrades. An FPU includes a model and compute logic that are used to implement a data processing feature. A feature processing service deploys the FPU to an FPU engine at the provider network and also deploys the FPU to edge devices of the client's network that each include an edge FPU engine. The FPU engine at the provider network and the edge FPU engine at each edge device conform to a common specification/API, allowing deployment and use of the same FPU/data processing features at both the cloud and the edge.

Abstract: Techniques for configuring a speech processing system with a privacy mode that is associated with the identity of a user that activated the privacy mode are described. A user may speak an indication to have the speech processing system activate a privacy mode. When such an indication is detected by the speech processing system, the speech processing system determines an identity of the user, determines a unique system identifier associated with the user, and generates a privacy mode flag. The speech processing system then associates the privacy mode flag with the user's unique system identifier. The privacy mode flag indicates to components of the speech processing system that any data related to processing of the user's utterances should not be sent to long term storage, thus causing various components of the system to delete data once the respective component is finished processing with respect to an utterance of the user.
