Abstract

Methods and computer systems for audio search on a social networking platform are disclosed. While running a social networking application, a computer system receives a first audio input from a user of the computer system and then generates a first audio confusion network from the first audio input. After comparing the first audio confusion network with one or more second audio confusion networks, each corresponding to a second audio input associated with one of a plurality of participants of a chat session of the social networking application, the computer system identifies at least one second audio input corresponding to the at least one second audio confusion network that matches the first audio confusion network and displays a portion of the chat session including a visual icon representing the identified second audio input on a display of the computer system.
