First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computerized method for spotting an at least one call interaction out of a multiplicity of call interactions, in which an at least one target speaker participates, the method comprising:
- capturing at least one target speaker speech sample of the at least one target speaker by a speech capture device;
generating by a computerized engine a multiplicity of speaker models based on a multiplicity of speaker speech samples from the at least one call interaction;
matching by a computerized server the at least one target speaker speech sample with speaker models the multiplicity of speaker models to determine a target speaker model;
determining a score for each call interaction of the multiplicity of call interactions according to a comparison between the target speaker model and the multiplicity of speaker models; and
based on scores that are higher than a predetermined threshold, determining call interactions, of the multiplicity of call interactions, in which the at least one target speaker participates.

29. A computerized apparatus for spotting an at least one call interaction out of a multiplicity of call interactions in which a target speaker participates, the apparatus comprising:
-
a training computerized component configured for generating a multiplicity of speaker models based on a multiplicity of speaker speech samples from the at least one call interaction; and a speaker spotting computerized component configured for matching the target speaker speech sample with speaker models of the multiplicity of speaker models to determine a target speaker model, determining a score for each call interaction of the multiplicity of call interactions according to a comparison between the target speaker model and the multiplicity of speaker models, and based on scores that are higher than a predetermined threshold, determining call interactions, of the multiplicity of call interactions, and in which the at least one target speaker participates. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38)
