| Abstract | This paper presents the rationale, objectives and advances of an on-goingproject (the DesPho-APaDy project funded by the French National Agency ofResearch) which aims to provide a systematic and quantified description ofFrench dysarthric speech, over a large population of patients and threedysarthria types (related to the parkinson's disease, the Amyotrophic LateralSclerosis disease, and a pure cerebellar alteration). The two French corpora ofdysarthric patients, from which the speech data have been selected for analysispurposes, are firstly described. Secondly, this paper discusses and outlinesthe requirement of a structured and organized computerized platform in order tostore, organize and make accessible (for selected and protected usage)dysarthric speech corpora and associated patients’ clinical information(mostly disseminated in different locations: labs, hospitals, …). The designof both a computer database and a multi-field query interface is proposed forthe clinical context. Finally, advances of the project related to the selectionof the population used for the dysarthria analysis, the preprocessing of thespeech files, their orthographic transcription and their automatic alignmentare also presented. |
