New App that Recognises Atypical Speech

A new app to recognise Atypical Speech promises to provide more independence and even an opportunity to have a conversation for people with dysarthric speech. The app developers have listened to the Disabled communities Nothing about us, without us, and ensured that the community have been involved from the start and continue to be included.

“As we receive more training data from our users, the AI becomes smarter and better able to predict general speech pathology patterns related to different conditions,” says Weissberg. “This will lessen the training time for future users because the AI engine has already implemented those learnings. So, there’s a real crowdsourcing element at work here that we think will benefit our users over the long-term.”
