In our study, we adopt the supervised NMF approach [15], with a focus on VC from poorly articulated speech resulting from articulation disorders into well-ordered articulation.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease of synovial joints, involving the loss of articular cartilage, synovial inflammation and changes to the subchondral bone, resulting in impaired articulation, reduced mobility, joint stiffness and pain [ 5, 6].
Osteoarthritis (OA) is associated with increased articular cartilage hydraulic permeability and decreased maintenance of high interstitial fluid load support (IFLS) during articulation, resulting in increased friction on the cartilage solid matrix.
Loss of cartilage and incongruent joint surfaces result in painful articulation, necessitating orthopaedic treatment.
In this study, we focused on a person with an articulation disorder resulting from athetoid cerebral palsy.
However, a speech conversion method for people with articulation disorders resulting from athetoid cerebral palsy has not been successfully developed.
We present in this paper a voice conversion (VC) method for a person with an articulation disorder resulting from athetoid cerebral palsy.
In the case of people with an articulation disorder resulting from athetoid cerebral palsy, it is difficult for them to input text because of their athetoid symptoms.
Despite the agrammatic nature of the turn and the indistinct quality of Graham's articulation (due to dyspraxia, a motor speech disorder resulting in effortful and imprecise articulations that commonly co-occurs with agrammatism), Alex is able to offer a version of what he thinks Graham means to say ("could call in", line 15), which is accepted.
His vaunted precision in matters of balance and articulation resulted in a lively, vigorous account, and the musicians rose to the occasion with polished, responsive playing.
