• The Effects of Automatic Speech Recognition Quality on Human Transcription Latency

  Yashesh Gaur · 2015 · ASSETS '15: Proceedings of the 17th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers & Accessibility

  This paper investigates a practical question for accessibility: when does providing automatic speech recognition (ASR) output help human captionists work faster, and when does it slow them down? Converting speech to text is fundamental for making audio content accessible to deaf…

• Evaluating Alternatives for Better Deaf Accessibility to Selected Web-Based Multimedia

  Brent N. Shiver, Rosalee J. Wolfe · 2015 · ASSETS '15: Proceedings of the 17th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers & Accessibility

  This research addresses the accessibility gap created by the proliferation of uncaptioned video content online—a particular problem for deaf adults who use American Sign Language as their primary language and view English as a second language. While television captioning has…

• Automatic Assessment of Speech Capability Loss in Disordered Speech

  Thomas Pellegrini, Lionel Fontan, Julie Mauclair, Jérôme Farinas, Charlotte Alazard-Guiu, Marina Robert, Peggy Gatignol · 2015 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

  This paper investigates whether the Goodness of Pronunciation (GOP) algorithm, originally developed for computer-assisted language learning to detect non-native speaker mispronunciations, can be repurposed to assess speech capability loss in people with speech disorders. The…
