Bio-phonetic multi-phrase speaker identity verification
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving private, time-sensitive data associated with activities of an asserted speaker identity, wherein a speaker claims to have the asserted speaker identity;
prompting the speaker to speak an alpha-numeric word, wherein the alpha-numeric word is selected based on the private time-sensitive data;
extracting a voice feature from a response to the prompting;
comparing, via a processor, the voice feature with a voice profile of the asserted speaker identity, to yield a comparison; and
verifying the speaker as the asserted speaker identity when the comparison exceeds a threshold similarity between the response and the voice profile.

Abstract
Systems and methods for bio-phonetic multi-phrase speaker identity verification are disclosed. Generally, a speaker identity verification engine generates a dynamic phrase including at least one dynamically-generated word. The speaker identity verification engine prompts a user to speak the dynamic phrase and receives a dynamic phrase utterance. The speaker identity verification engine extracts at least one voice characteristic from the dynamic phrase utterance and compares the at least one voice characteristic with a voice profile the generate a score. The speaker identity verification engine then determines whether to accept a speaker identity claim based on the score.

9. A system comprising:
-
a processor; and a computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising; receiving private, time-sensitive data associated with activities of an asserted speaker identity, wherein a speaker claims to have the asserted speaker identity; prompting the speaker to speak an alpha-numeric word, wherein the alpha-numeric word is selected based on the private time-sensitive data; extracting a voice feature from a response to the prompting; comparing the voice feature with a voice profile of the asserted speaker identity, to yield a comparison; and verifying the speaker as the asserted speaker identity when the comparison exceeds a threshold similarity between the response and the voice profile. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer-readable storage device having instructions stored which, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving private, time-sensitive data associated with activities of asserted speaker identity, wherein a speaker claims to have the asserted speaker identity; prompting the speaker to speak an alpha-numeric word, wherein the alpha-numeric word is selected based on the private time-sensitive data; extracting a voice feature from a response to the prompting; comparing the voice feature with a voice profile of the asserted speaker identity, to yield a comparison; and verifying the speaker as the asserted speaker identity when the comparison exceeds a threshold similarity between the response and the voice profile. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
