description Techniques for automatically identifying a speaker in a conversation as a known person based on processing of audio of the speaker's voice to extract characteristics of that voice and on an automated comparison of those characteristics to known characteristics of the known person's voice. A speaker segmentation process may be performed on audio of the conversation to produce, for each speaker in the conversation, a segment that includes the audio of that speaker. Audio of each of the segments may then be processed to extract characteristics of that speaker's voice. The characteristics derived from each segment (and thus for multiple speakers) may then be compared to characteristics of the known person's voice to determine whether the speaker for that segment is the known person. For each segment, a degree of match between the voice characteristics of the speaker and the voice characteristics of the known person may be calculated.
