Abstract

In some cases, a verbal harassment detection system may use machine learning models to detect verbal harassment in real-time or near real-time. The system may receive an audio segment comprising a portion of audio captured by a microphone located within a vehicle. Further, the system may convert the audio segment to a text segment. The system may provide at least the text segment to a prediction model associated with verbal harassment detection to obtain a harassment prediction. Further, the system may provide the audio segment to an emotion detector to obtain a detected emotion of a speaking user that made an utterance included in the audio segment. Based at least in part on the harassment prediction and the detected emotion, the system may automatically, and without user intervention, determine whether a user is being harassed.
