    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein relating to audio matching. Interest points that are onsets are generally very efficient in audio matching in that they are robust to multiple types of distortion. Prominent onsets can be detected within an audio signal excerpt as interest points and combined as a function of a set of interest points to form a descriptor. Descriptors associated with an audio signal excerpt that contain a set of prominent onsets as interest points can be used in matching the audio signal excerpt to an audio reference. The benefits in generating and using prominent onsets within descriptors improve the accuracy of an audio matching system.

    Abstract: Apparatus, systems and methods provide incentive-based usage of an audio recognition system. In an aspect, a system is provided that includes a query component configured to receive an audio sample from a device and a recognition component configured to determine an identification of the audio sample. The system further includes a reward component configured to identify a reward associated with the identification of the audio sample, wherein the query component is further configured to provide a query result to the device, the query result comprising the identification of the audio sample and the reward associated therewith.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for a content-based security for computing devices. An example method includes identifying content rendered by a mobile application, the content being rendered during a session, generating feature vectors from the content and determining that the feature vectors do not match a classification model. The method also includes providing, in response to the determination that the feature vectors do not match the classification model, a challenge configured to authenticate a user of the mobile device. Another example method includes determining a computing device is located at a trusted location, capturing information from a session, the information coming from content rendered by a mobile application during the session, generating feature vectors for the session, and repeating this until a training criteria is met. The method also includes training a classification model using the feature vectors and authenticating a user of the device using the trained classification model.

    Abstract: Systems and methods simulate a hyperlink in regular content displayed on a screen. An example method can include generating, responsive to detecting a simulated hyperlink indication, a centered selection from content displayed on a display of a computing device, providing the centered selection to a simulated hyperlink model that predicts an operation given the centered selection, and initiating the operation using an intent associated with a mobile application. The simulated hyperlink model may also provide, from the centered selection, an intelligent selection used the intent's parameter. Another method includes identifying documents having a hyperlink whitelisted websites, generating positive training examples for a simulated hyperlink model using the documents, each positive training example having a centered selection, a website, and a mobile application mapped to the website, and training the simulated hyperlink model, using the positive training examples, to predict an operation for the mobile application given the centered selection.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for receiving audio data corresponding to an utterance, determining that the audio data corresponds to a hotword, generating a hotword audio fingerprint of the audio data that is determined to correspond to the hotword, comparing the hotword audio fingerprint to one or more stored audio fingerprints of audio data that was previously determined to correspond to the hotword, detecting whether the hotword audio fingerprint matches a stored audio fingerprint of audio data that was previously determined to correspond to the hotword based on whether the comparison indicates a similarity between the hotword audio fingerprint and one of the one or more stored audio fingerprints that satisfies a predetermined threshold, and in response to detecting that the hotword audio fingerprint matches a stored audio fingerprint, disabling access to a computing device into which the utterance was spoken.
