Abstract: Some implementations process, using warm word model(s), a stream of audio data to determine a portion of the audio data that corresponds to particular word(s) and/or phrase(s) (e.g., a warm word) associated with an assistant command, process, using an automatic speech recognition (ASR) model, a preamble portion of the audio data (e.g., that precedes the warm word) and/or a postamble portion of the audio data (e.g., that follows the warm word) to generate ASR output, and determine, based on processing the ASR output, whether a user intended the assistant command to be performed. Additional or alternative implementations can process the stream of audio data using a speaker identification (SID) model to determine whether the audio data is sufficient to identify the user that provided a spoken utterance captured in the stream of audio data, and determine if that user is authorized to cause performance of the assistant command.

Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to an application and/or automated assistant that can identify arrangement operations to perform for arranging text during speech-to-text operations—without a user having to expressly identify the arrangement operations. In some instances, a user that is dictating a document (e.g., an email, a text message, etc.) can provide a spoken utterance to an application in order to incorporate textual content. However, in some of these instances, certain corresponding arrangements are needed for the textual content in the document. The textual content that is derived from the spoken utterance can be arranged by the application based on an intent, vocalization features, and/or contextual features associated with the spoken utterance and/or a type of the application associated with the document, without the user expressly identifying the corresponding arrangements.

Abstract: Disclosed is a tuner for tensioning a string of a plucked chordophone musical instrument. The tuner differs from the known tuners in that the seat obtained in the plate and intended to accommodate the support slab of the involute screw is shaped so as to allow, if necessary, a translation of the slab with respect to the plate so as to move the involute screw towards the gear wheel which meshes it, orthogonally to the rotation axes thereof. Advantageously, it is thus possible to restore any possible undesirable play present between the involute screw and the gear wheel without having to rotate the latter about its axis.
