The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) is partnering with Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and nonprofit partners in the Speech Accessibility Project. The project's aim is to improve current speech recognition capabilities so that everyone, including people with disabilities and diverse speech patterns, can take advantage of speech recognition systems.
Artificial Intelligence
- AI in 2023: A year of breakthroughs that left no human thing unchanged
- These are the jobs most likely to be taken over by AI
- AI at the edge: 5G and the Internet of Things see fast times ahead
- Almost half of tech executives say their organizations aren't ready for AI or other advanced initiatives
"The option to communicate and operate devices with speech is crucial for anyone interacting with technology or the digital economy today," said Mark Hasegawa-Johnson, the UIUC professor of electrical and computer engineering who's leading the project. "Speech interfaces should be available to everybody, and that includes people with disabilities."
Currently, many speech recognition systems, such as voice assistants and translation tools, fail to recognize a wide range of speech patterns, including those often associated with disabilities such as Lou Gehrig's disease or Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, cerebral palsy, and Down syndrome.
Therefore, oftentimes people who belong to these communities cannot take advantage of the benefits that speech recognition software can offer. However, through the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning, technology companies can make their voice recognition software more inclusive, and that is the goal of the Speech Accessibility Project.
