Abstract
Techniques for enrolling a user in a system's user recognition functionality without requiring the user speak particular speech are described. The system may determine characteristics unique to a user input. The system may generate an implicit voice profile from user inputs having similar characteristics. After an implicit voice profile is generated, the system may receive a user input having speech characteristics similar to that of the implicit voice profile. The system may ask the user if the user wants the system to associate the implicit voice profile with a particular user identifier. If the user responds affirmatively, the system may request an identifier of a user profile (e.g., a user name). In response to receiving the user's name, the system may identify a user profile associated with the name and associate the implicit voice profile with the user profile, thereby converting the implicit voice profile into an explicit voice profile.
