Detection of mental and pathological speech disorders
Our voice tells us much more than the meaning of the spoken words. Even in a phone conversation, we can hear if the speaker is ill or got cold. The alterations can be due to neurological and physiological reasons.
Processing of EEG signals
Our aim is to provide students with a set of informatics tools for processing EEG signals and performing experiments. The course consists of lectures and MATLAB exercises.
Ongoing research fundings
- AsrDys: Automatic transcription and modelling of speech with disfluency and voice disorders and their clinical application (NKFIH)
- Brain2Speech: Analysis of articulation and brain signals for speech-based brain-computer interfaces (NKFIH)
- CELSA-Dementia: Identification of language-independent speech and language biomarkers characteristic of dementia (CELSA)
Laboratory of Speech Acoustics
The research of speech requires a special interdisciplinary thinking. The staff of the the Laboratory of Speech Acoustics has knowledge of psychoacoustics, linguistics, pshysics, maths and informatics.
Our laboratory has a succesful collaboration with well known national and international researchers. In our research, we keep the engineering point of view our main priority.
Research topics: basic acoustic-phonetic research, database creation, automatic speech recognition, pathological and mental disorders in speech, forensic speech analysis.
