Automatic speech recognition in neurodegenerative disease

چکیده
Abstract Automatic speech recognition (ASR) could potentially improve communication by providing transcriptions of in real time. ASR is particularly useful for people with progressive disorders that lead to reduced intelligibility or difficulties performing motor tasks. services are usually trained on healthy and may not be optimized impaired speech, creating a barrier accessing augmented assistance devices. We tested the performance three state-of-the-art platforms two groups neurodegenerative disease controls. further examined individual differences explain errors within groups, such as age sex. Speakers were recorded while reading standard text. Speech was elicited from individuals multiple sclerosis, Friedreich’s ataxia, Recordings manually transcribed compared using Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, IBM Watson. Accuracy measured proportion words correctly classified. accuracy higher controls than clinical sclerosis ataxia all services. Services Cloud yielded decreased increased duration. Age sex did significantly affect accuracy. faces challenges neuromuscular disorders. Until improvements made recognizing less intelligible true value requiring devices alternative remains unrealized. suggest potential methods those speech.

Abstract Recent developments in robotics automation have motivated researchers to improve the efficiency of interactive systems by making a natural man-machine interaction. Since speech is the most popular method of communication, recognizing human emotions from speech signal becomes a challenging research topic known as Speech Emotion Recognition (SER). In this study, we propose a Persian em...
متن کاملSpeech production knowledge in automatic speech recognition.
Although much is known about how speech is produced, and research into speech production has resulted in measured articulatory data, feature systems of different kinds, and numerous models, speech production knowledge is almost totally ignored in current mainstream approaches to automatic speech recognition. Representations of speech production allow simple explanations for many phenomena obser...
متن کاملSpeech recognition with automatic punctuation
We present a method of speech recognition with automatic punctuation based on a combination of acoustic and lexical evidence. In the recognizer vocabulary, punctuation marks are treated as word entries. By assigning the acoustic baseforms of silence, breath, and other non-speech sounds to punctuation marks, and using a properly processed N-gram language model, unpronounced punctuation marks of ...
