Abstract: This document generally describes systems, methods, devices, and other techniques related to speaker verification, including (i) training a neural network for a speaker verification model, (ii) enrolling users at a client device, and (iii) verifying identities of users based on characteristics of the users' voices. Some implementations include a computer-implemented method. The method can include receiving, at a computing device, data that characterizes an utterance of a user of the computing device. A speaker representation can be generated, at the computing device, for the utterance using a neural network on the computing device. The neural network can be trained based on a plurality of training samples that each: (i) include data that characterizes a first utterance and data that characterizes one or more second utterances, and (ii) are labeled as a matching speakers sample or a non-matching speakers sample.

Abstract: A polymer-based compound, useful as a polymer masonry unit is disclosed that can include a polymer added to a quarry byproduct to manufacture a quality brick unit. The present disclosure solves the technological problem of providing a structurally sound brick or concrete alternative without the need for kiln firing, using traditionally unusable waste material. By combining quarry byproduct and a polymer, a polymer masonry unit can be fabricated having compressive strength and architectural utility. In one exemplary embodiment, fiber elements can be added to the byproduct and polymer mixture to increase structural stability. The present disclosure improves the performance of the system itself by providing a basic block or brick unit using an environmentally responsible manufacturing process that reduces cost and waste. The manufacturing process includes a polymer/base material that can be poured into molds that cures over a predetermined period, without the need for kiln firing.

Abstract: The EZ Mirror has a mirror system connected to a mirror vest by way of a flexible conduit. The mirror system has a central mirror between a left mirror and a right mirror. The left mirror is connected to the central mirror at a left mirror angle and the right mirror is connected to the central mirror at a right mirror angle. In use, the mirror system is held in place behind a user's head by the flexible conduit and mirror vest worn by a user, enabling the user to use both hands while looking into the mirror system of the EZ Mirror when engaged in activities such as cutting or braiding one's hair. The EZ Mirror allows a full view of the sides and back of a user's head without having to move any mirror in the mirror system.
