Abstract: A neural network audio codec system and related methods are provided. In one example, a method is provided comprising: obtaining speech audio to be encoded; applying the speech audio to an audio encoder that is part of a neural network audio codec system that includes the audio encoder and an audio decoder. The audio encoder and the audio decoder have been trained in an end-to-end manner. The speech audio is encoded with the audio encoder to generate embedding vectors that represent a snapshot of speech audio attributes over successive timeframes of the raw speech audio, and from the embedding vectors, codeword indices are generated to entries in a codebook. The codeword indices are then transmitted or stored for later retrieval and processing by the audio decoder.

Abstract: Described herein are a system and techniques for detecting whether biometric data provided in an access request is genuine or a replay. In some embodiments, the system uses an machine learning model trained using genuine and replay sample data which is optimized in order to produce a result set in which results for the genuine samples are pulled closer to a genuine center and results for the replay samples are pushed away from the genuine center. Subjecting input biometric data (e.g., an audio sample) to the trained model results in a classification of the input biometric data as genuine or replay, which can then be used to determine whether or not to verify the input biometric data.
