Embodiment Construction

[0040] This embodiment generally relates to managing user profiles, and specifically relates to voice-activated management of user profiles.

[0041] Two types of systems are the main drivers in the evolution of the interaction between user equipment and home users towards voice-activated user interfaces. One is understanding what is being said. This is achieved with the aid of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) which enables fast voice commands and searches, followed by Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Natural Language Understanding (NLU). The other is understanding who said it, which is achieved with the help of speaker recognition (SR).

[0042]Extended user equipment (such as a set-top box) with SR functionality has two main advantages. The first is to use voice biometrics as an alternative and / or additional layer of security to restrict access to information and / or services to authorized users identified by means of SR. The second is to use the user's voice for in...

Abstract

A management of user profiles comprises calculating, for each speaker model of at least one speaker model, a confidence measure representing a probability that the speaker model represents a speaker of a cluster of audio segments. A user profile associated with the speaker model is updated based on a user preference assigned to the cluster of audio segments if the confidence measure calculated forthe speaker model represents a probability that is higher than a target probability. The embodiments achieve an efficient user profile management in a voice-controlled context but without the need for any dedicated enrollment sessions to train speaker models.

Description

technical field [0001] This embodiment generally relates to managing user profiles, and specifically relates to voice-activated management of user profiles. Background technique [0002] Over the past few years, automatic speech recognition (ASR) algorithms have found their way into user equipment. This fusion of technologies enables consumers to have hands-free control of user equipment, such as set-top boxes, using only spoken commands. In addition to simple controls, users can now interact with user devices to request content-related information, perform searches, and receive content recommendations. [0003] In order to realize the voice adaptation of the user equipment, it is necessary to register the user's voice in the registration session. From a user perspective, registering for a session is a cumbersome and artificial requirement, since each user must read text aloud to train the algorithm. [0004] Another problem with a typical registration session is that it ...
