Abstract
Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“Voice biometrics are currently used to authenticate users and to grant them access to systems and/orsensitive data. However, it may be diffi cult to obtain a good sample of the user’s voice in a way that isconvenient for the user because background noise may interfere with the audio (e.g., a microph one maypick up background noise in a phone call). For example, audio may includ e multiple people’s voices, dogsbarking, loud traffic, music, or other sounds t hat make it difficult to generate a biometric using the audiorecording. Additio nally, it may be inconvenient for the user to take time to go to a quiet environ ment sothat only the user’s voice is heard. Given these issues, it may be diffi cult to create a voice biometric for auser with call audio.”
