Frontmatter -- Foreword -- Acknowledgments -- Contents -- List of contributors -- Introduction -- Part I: Comparative analysis of methods for speaker identification, speech recognition, and intelligibility modification in the dysarthric speaker population -- 1. State-of-the-art speaker recognition methods applied to speakers with dysarthria -- 2. Enhancement of continuous dysarthric speech -- 3. Assessment and intelligibility modification for dysarthric speech -- Part II: New approaches to speech reconstruction and enhancement via conversion of non-acoustic signals -- 4. Analysis and quality conversion of nonacoustic signals: the physiological microphone (PMIC) -- 5. Non-audible murmur to audible speech conversion -- Part III: Use of novel speech diagnostic and therapeutic intervention software for speech enhancement and rehabilitation -- 6. Application of speech signal processing for assessment and treatment of voice and speech disorders -- 7. A mobile phone-based platform for asynchronous speech therapy

The book explores new ways to reconstruct and enhance speech that is compromised by various neuro-motor disorders - collectively known as "dysarthria." The authors address some of the extant lacunae in speech research of dysarthric conditions: they show how new methods can improve speaker recognition when speech is impaired due to developmental or acquired pathologies; they present a novel multi-dimensional approach to help the speech system both assess dysarthric speech and to perform intelligibility improvement of the impaired speech; they display well-performing software solutions for developmental and acquired speech impairments, and for vocal injuries; and they examine non-acoustic signals and muted nonverbal sounds in relation to audible speech conversion.
