Base Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method comprising: obtaining, by a first user device, a first score that indicates a likelihood that an utterance encoded in an audio signal that is generated by the first user device was spoken by a first user of the first user device; obtaining, by the first user device from another device that is a different device than the first user device and for a second user device that is co-located with the first user device, a second score that indicates a likelihood that the utterance was spoken by a second user that is associated with the second user device; determining, by the first user device, that the utterance was likely spoken by the first user based at least on (i) the first score that indicates a likelihood that the utterance was spoken by the first user of the first user device, and (ii) the second score that indicates a likelihood that the utterance was spoken by the second user that is associated with the second user device; and performing an action that corresponds with a spoken command encoded in the audio signal in response to determining that the utterance was likely spoken by the first user.

Claim 9:
9. The method of claim 1 comprising: determining, by the first user device, one or more third speaker models, associated with the first user device, for other people who may be located in a physical area near a physical location of the first user device; and determining, by the first user device, that the utterance was likely spoken by the first user based at least on (i) the first score that indicates a likelihood that the utterance was spoken by the first user of the first user device, (ii) the second score that indicates a likelihood that the utterance was spoken by the second user that is associated with the second user device, and (iii) the third speaker models for other people who may be located in a physical area near a physical location of the first user device.
