US Patent 11955122 Detecting machine-outputted audio

Techniques for determining whether audio is machine-outputted or non-machine-outputted are described. A device may receive audio, may process the audio to determine audio data including audio features corresponding to the audio, and may process the audio data to determine audio embedding data. The device may process the audio embedding data to determine whether the audio is machine-outputted or non-machine-outputted. In response to determining that the audio is machine-outputted, then the audio may be discarded or not processed further. Alternatively, in response to determining that the audio is non-machine-outputted (e.g., live speech from a user), then the audio may be processed further (e.g., using ASR processing).
