Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media for classification using neural networks. One method includes receiving audio data corresponding to an utterance. Obtaining a transcription of the utterance. Generating a representation of the audio data. Generating a representation of the transcription of the utterance. Providing (i) the representation of the audio data and (ii) the representation of the transcription of the utterance to a classifier that, based on a given representation of the audio data and a given representation of the transcription of the utterance, is trained to output an indication of whether the utterance associated with the given representation is likely directed to an automated assistance or is likely not directed to an automated assistant. Receiving, from the classifier, an indication of whether the utterance corresponding to the received audio data is likely directed to the automated assistant or is likely not directed to the automated assistant. Selectively instructing the automated assistant based at least on the indication of whether the utterance corresponding to the received audio data is likely directed to the automated assistant or is likely not directed to the automated assistant.
