Abstract
Methods, systems, apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage medium, to facilitate language independent-speaker verification. In one aspect, a method includes actions of receiving, by a user device, audio data representing an utterance of a user. Other actions may include providing, to a neural network stored on the user device, input data derived from the audio data and a language identifier. The neural network may be trained using speech data representing speech in different languages or dialects. The method may include additional actions of generating, based on output of the neural network, a speaker representation and determining, based on the speaker representation and a second representation, that the utterance is an utterance of the user. The method may provide the user with access to the user device based on determining that the utterance is an utterance of the user.
