Deaf and hard-of-hearing people utilize sign language recognition (SLR) to interconnect. Sign language (SL) is vital for hard-of-hearing and deaf individuals to communicate. SL uses varied hand gestures to speak words, sentences, or letters. It aids ...
Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology

PURPOSE: We present a systematic literature review of dialogue agents for Artificial Intelligence (AI) and agent-based conversational systems dealing with cognitive disability of aged and impaired people including dementia and Parkinson's disease. We...
OBJECTIVE: The P300 speller is a common brain-computer interface (BCI) application designed to communicate language by detecting event related potentials in a subject's electroencephalogram signal. Information about the structure of natural language ...

Noninvasive electroencephalography (EEG)-based brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) popularly utilize event-related potential (ERP) for intent detection. Specifically, for EEG-based BCI typing systems, different symbol presentation paradigms have been ut...
OBJECTIVE: In this work we propose a probabilistic graphical model framework that uses language priors at the level of words as a mechanism to increase the performance of P300-based spellers.
Augmentative and alternative communication (Baltimore, Md. : 1985)

Current scanning access methods for text generation in AAC devices are limited to relatively few options, most notably row/column variations within a matrix. We present Huffman scanning, a new method for applying statistical language models to binary...
Sign language recognition, especially the sentence recognition, is of great significance for lowering the communication barrier between the hearing/speech impaired and the non-signers. The general glove solutions, which are employed to detect motions...
IEEE reviews in biomedical engineering
Jan 1, 2021
Speech technology is not appropriately explored even though modern advances in speech technology-especially those driven by deep learning (DL) technology-offer unprecedented opportunities for transforming the healthcare industry. In this paper, we ha...
