  • Patent number: 11545155
    Abstract: A speaker recognition system for authenticating a mobile device user includes an enrollment and learning software module, a voice biometric authentication software module, and a secure software application. Upon request by a user of the mobile device, the enrollment and learning software module displays text prompts to the user, receives speech utterances from the user, and produces a voice biometric print. The enrollment and training software module determines when a voice biometric print has met at least a quality threshold before storing it on the mobile device. The secure software application prompts a user requiring authentication to repeat an utterance based at least on an attribute of a selected voice biometric print, receives a corresponding utterance, requests the voice biometric authentication software module to verify the identity of the second user using the utterance, and, if the user is authenticated, imports the voice biometric print.

  • Patent number: 10877727
    Abstract: A received signal represents a user's speech. A first speaker recognition process is performed on a first portion of the received signal, to obtain a first output result. A second speaker recognition process is performed on a second portion of the received signal that is different from the first portion of the received signal, to obtain a second output result. The second speaker recognition process is different from the first speaker recognition process. The first and second output results are combined to obtain a combined output result indicating a likelihood that the user is a registered user.

  • Patent number: 9792912
    Abstract: The invention refers to a method of verifying the identity of a speaker based on the speakers voice comprising the steps of: receiving (1, 5) a first and a second voice utterance; using biometric voice data to verify (2, 6) that the speakers voice corresponds to the speaker the identity of which is to be verified based on the received first and/or second voice utterance and determine (8) the similarity of the two received voice utterances characterized in that the similarity is determined using biometric voice characteristics of the two voice utterances or data derived from such biometric voice characteristics.

  • Patent number: 9685159
    Abstract: A method for speaker recognition comprising: obtaining speaker information for a target speaker; obtaining speech samples from telephone calls from an unknown speaker; classifying the speech samples according the unknown speaker thereby providing speaker-dependent classes of speech samples; extracting speaker information of each of the speaker-dependent classes of speech samples; combining the extracted speaker information; comparing the combined extracted speaker information with the stored speaker information for the target speaker to obtain a comparison result; and determining whether the unknown speaker is identical with the target speaker based on the comparison result.

  • Patent number: 9336780
    Abstract: Method for speaker identification includes detecting a target speaker's utterance locally; extracting features from the detected utterance locally, analyzing the extracted features in the local device to obtain information on the speaker identification and/or encoding the extracted features locally, transmitting the encoded extracted features to a remote server, decoding and analyzing the received extracted features by the server to obtain information on the speaker identification, and transmitting the information on the speaker identification from the server to the location where the speaker's utterance was detected. The method further includes detecting speech activity locally. Extracting features, encoding the extracted features, and/or transmitting the encoded extracted features to the server, are only performed if speech activity above some predetermined threshold is detected.
