We previously introduced a training-free method for dysarthria severity assessment based on d-prime separability of phonological feature subspaces in frozen self-supervised speech representations, validated on 890 speakers across 5…
Dysarthria is a motor speech disorder that results in slow and often incomprehensible speech. Speech intelligibility significantly impacts communication, leading to barriers in social interactions. Dysarthria is often a characteristic of…
Dysarthria, a condition resulting from impaired control of the speech muscles due to neurological disorders, significantly impacts the communication and quality of life of patients. The condition's complexity, human scoring and varied…
We developed dysarthric speech intelligibility classifiers on 551,176 disordered speech samples contributed by a diverse set of 468 speakers, with a range of self-reported speaking disorders and rated for their overall intelligibility on a…
Due to the subjective nature of current clinical evaluation, the need for automatic severity evaluation in dysarthric speech has emerged. DNN models outperform ML models but lack user-friendly explainability. ML models offer explainable…
Dysarthria, a motor speech disorder, severely impacts voice quality, pronunciation, and prosody, leading to diminished speech intelligibility and reduced quality of life. Accurate assessment is crucial for effective treatment, but…
Automating dysarthria assessments offers the opportunity to develop practical, low-cost tools that address the current limitations of manual and subjective assessments. Nonetheless, the small size of most dysarthria datasets makes it…
Dysarthric speech severity classification is crucial for objective clinical assessment and progress monitoring in individuals with motor speech disorders. Although prior methods have addressed this task, achieving robust generalization in…
Automatic detection and severity assessment of dysarthria are crucial for delivering targeted therapeutic interventions to patients. While most existing research focuses primarily on speech modality, this study introduces a novel approach…
Dysarthria is a neurological speech disorder that can significantly impact affected individuals' communication abilities and overall quality of life. The accurate and objective classification of dysarthria and the determination of its…
Hypernasality is a common characteristic symptom across many motor-speech disorders. For voiced sounds, hypernasality introduces an additional resonance in the lower frequencies and, for unvoiced sounds, there is reduced articulatory…
Dysarthric speech reconstruction (DSR) aims to transform dysarthric speech into normal speech by improving the intelligibility and naturalness. This is a challenging task especially for patients with severe dysarthria and speaking in…
Dysarthria is a condition which hampers the ability of an individual to control the muscles that play a major role in speech delivery. The loss of fine control over muscles that assist the movement of lips, vocal chords, tongue and…
Speech classifiers of paralinguistic traits traditionally learn from diverse hand-crafted low-level features, by selecting the relevant information for the task at hand. We explore an alternative to this selection, by learning jointly the…
The growing prevalence of neurological disorders associated with dysarthria motivates the need for automated intelligibility assessment methods that are applicalbe across languages. However, most existing approaches are either limited to a…
Dysarthric speech recognition (DSR) presents a formidable challenge due to inherent inter-speaker variability, leading to severe performance degradation when applying DSR models to new dysarthric speakers. Traditional speaker adaptation…
Dysarthria, a motor speech disorder, affects intelligibility and requires targeted interventions for effective communication. In this work, we investigate automated mispronunciation feedback by collecting a dysarthric speech dataset from…
Automatic assessment of dysarthric speech is essential for sustained treatments and rehabilitation. However, obtaining atypical speech is challenging, often leading to data scarcity issues. To tackle the problem, we propose a novel…
Dysarthria is malfunctioning of motor speech caused by faintness in the human nervous system. It is characterized by the slurred speech along with physical impairment which restricts their communication and creates the lack of confidence…
A key challenge in dysarthric speech recognition is the speaker-level diversity attributed to both speaker-identity associated factors such as gender, and speech impairment severity. Most prior researches on addressing this issue focused on…
