El Arte de Hablar: Tecnología NLP y Aplicaciones Móviles en la Terapia de la Dislalia.

Abstract

Natural language processing (NLP) constitutes a domain within the discipline of Artificial Intelligence that allows computational systems to understand and produce content articulated in human languages. The relevance of this field has increased significantly in services such as machine translation, spelling error detection and conversational agents. In the field of speech therapy, NLP is having a transformative impact on the treatment of communication impairments by facilitating personalized therapeutic interventions that are dynamically aligned with the specific requirements of each patient. The book proposes the development of a mobile application aimed at extending conventional therapeutic practices in dyslalia intervention. This application allows the formulation of personalized exercises and the execution of interactive activities in the home environment. For its development, Flutter, an open source development kit that facilitates the creation of applications on multiple platforms, was used. In addition, an algorithm based on a dense-layer neural network was run to classify phonemes, obtaining exceptional quality metrics, obtaining an accessible and efficient methodology to improve the treatment of dyslalia, thus revolutionizing the way in which this particular speech disorder is addressed.
