  • Publication number: 20240071384
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include techniques for processing audio commands for a virtual personal assistant. A speech processing system segments speech detected in an audio input signal into a plurality of speech segments wherein the speech included in a given speech segment is uttered by a single speaker. The speech processing system clusters the speech segments included in the plurality of speech segments into a plurality of clusters, wherein each cluster included in the plurality of clusters is uttered by a different speaker. The speech processing system determines that a first cluster included in the plurality of clusters is uttered by a first authorized speaker. The speech processing system causes the virtual personal assistant to execute a first audio command included in the first cluster.
