چکیده

We describe several approaches for using prosodic features of speech and audio localization to control interactive applications. This information can be used for parameter control, as well as for disambiguating speech recognition. We discuss how characteristics of the spoken sentences can be exploited in the user interface; for example, by considering the speed with which the sentence was spoken and the presence of extraneous utterances. We also show how coarse audio localization can be used for low-fidelity gesture tracking, by inferring the speaker's head position. CR CATEGORIES AND SUBJECT DESCRIPTORS: H.5.2 (User Interfaces): Graphical user interfaces, natural language, voice I/O; I.2.7 (Natural Language Processing). GENERAL TERMS: Design, experimentation, human factors.

The effect of bilateral subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) on the acoustic and prosodic features in patients with Parkinson’s disease: A study protocol for the first trial on Iranian patients

Background: The effect of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) on the voice features in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is controversial. No study has evaluated the voice features of PD underwent STN-DBS by the acoustic, perceptual, and patient-based assessments comprehensively. Furthermore, there is no study to investigate prosodic features before and after DBS in PD. The curren...

Distributed client/server models are becoming increasingly prevalent in multimedia systems and advanced user interface design. A multimedia application, for example, may play and record audio, use speechrecognition input, and use a window system for graphical I/O. The software architecture of such a system can be simplified if the application communicates to multiple servers (e.g., audio server...
