Quantifying perturbations in temporal dynamics for automated assessment of spastic dysarthric speech intelligibility
Spastic dysarthric speech is often associated with imprecise placement of articulators which, in turn, cause perturbations in speech temporal dynamics, such as unclear distinction...
