Syllable-based speech characteristics as potential biomarker for differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, and cerebellar ataxia.

Journal of neurology
Speech disorders differ between Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA), but studies focusing on group differences based on syllables or including cerebellar ataxia (CA) are lacking until now. This cross-sectional study aimed to an...

A novel speech signal feature extraction technique to detect speech impairment in children accurately.

Computers in biology and medicine
Speech signal processing and extracting useful information from speech signal is necessary for speech language impairment (SLI) detection in children. Although different features has been suggested for SLI detection, there is still a scope exist for ...

Image classification-driven speech disorder detection using deep learning technique.

SLAS technology
Speech disorders affect an individual's ability to generate sounds or utilize the voice appropriately. Neurological, developmental, physical, and trauma may cause speech disorders. Speech impairments influence communication, social interaction, educa...

Is there any room for ChatGPT AI bot in speech-language pathology?

European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery
PURPOSE: This study investigates the potential of the ChatGPT-4.0 artificial intelligence bot to assist speech-language pathologists (SLPs) by assessing its accuracy, comprehensiveness, and relevance in various tasks related to speech, language, and ...

Classification of speech arrests and speech impairments during awake craniotomy: a multi-databases analysis.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Awake craniotomy presents a unique opportunity to map and preserve critical brain functions, particularly speech, during tumor resection. The ability to accurately assess linguistic functions in real-time not only enhances surgical precision...

TranStutter: A Convolution-Free Transformer-Based Deep Learning Method to Classify Stuttered Speech Using 2D Mel-Spectrogram Visualization and Attention-Based Feature Representation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Stuttering, a prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder, profoundly affects fluent speech, causing involuntary interruptions and recurrent sound patterns. This study addresses the critical need for the accurate classification of stuttering types. The res...

Deep learning applications in telerehabilitation speech therapy scenarios.

Computers in biology and medicine
Nowadays, many application scenarios benefit from automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology. Within the field of speech therapy, in some cases ASR is exploited in the treatment of dysarthria with the aim of supporting articulation output. However...

Swarm of micro flying robots in the wild.

Science robotics
Aerial robots are widely deployed, but highly cluttered environments such as dense forests remain inaccessible to drones and even more so to swarms of drones. In these scenarios, previously unknown surroundings and narrow corridors combined with requ...

Trajectory Planner CDT-RRT* for Car-Like Mobile Robots toward Narrow and Cluttered Environments.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In order to achieve the safe and efficient navigation of mobile robots, it is essential to consider both the environmental geometry and kinodynamic constraints of robots. We propose a trajectory planner for car-like robots on the basis of the Dual-Tr...

A Methodology to Differentiate Parkinson's Disease and Aging Speech Based on Glottal Flow Acoustic Analysis.

International journal of neural systems
Speech is controlled by axial neuromotor systems, therefore, it is highly sensitive to the effects of neurodegenerative illnesses such as Parkinson's Disease (PD). Patients suffering from PD present important alterations in speech, which are manifest...
