Automatic syllable stress detection is a crucial component in Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) systems for language learners. Current stress detection models are typically trained on clean speech, which may not be robust in real-world scenarios where background noise is prevalent. To addre…
Automatic syllable stress detection is an essential component in Computer assisted language learning (CALL) systems to guide nonnative language learners. In English, each word typically contains only one primary stressed syllable. However, standard loss functions, such as Binary Cross-Entropy (BCE),…
Dysarthria due to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) impacts both articulation and prosody in an individual’s speech. Complex deep neural networks exploit these cues for detection of ALS and PD. These are typically done using recordings in laboratory condition. This stu…
In this paper, we consider 2-class and 3-class classification problems for classifying patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson's Disease (PD), and Healthy Controls (HC) using a CNNLSTM network. Classification performance is examined for three different tasks, namely, Spontaneous…
