Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an AI speech abnormality assessment algorithm, and specifically to a speech training hearing aid system equipped with an AI speech abnormality assessment algorithm. Background Art

[0002] Congenital hearing loss is a disease that seriously affects the hearing and speech development of children. If not detected and intervened in a timely manner, it will have a long-term and even irreversible impact on the physical and mental health of the children. Without any intervention, hearing-impaired children may experience problems such as delayed language development and unclear speech. In severe cases, they may even develop into deaf-mutes, resulting in social barriers and psychological problems. However, through scientific intervention means, such as hearing aids or cochlear implants and other hearing compensation devices, the hearing condition of the children can be significantly improved, laying a foundation for the improvement of their language learning ability.

[0003] In the early stage of life (0 - 3 years old), which is a critical period for children's language development and also a key stage for the development of the auditory center. Research shows that if effective intervention can be carried out within 6 months after birth, including wearing hearing aids or cochlear implants and combining with systematic speech rehabilitation training, the language ability of the children can reach the development level of normal children. However, in practical applications, problems such as the real-time monitoring of the hearing level and speech level of hearing-impaired children, and the quantification of the speech training results by speech therapists and guardians make it difficult to fully utilize the effect of hearing compensation devices, resulting in a still lagging language development level.

[0004] In this context, it is particularly important to develop a speech training hearing aid system equipped with an AI speech abnormality assessment algorithm. Combining with hearing aids or cochlear implants, through intelligent speech recognition technology, personalized training program design, and real-time feedback mechanism, it helps guardians and speech training teachers carry out rehabilitation work more efficiently. For example, in the infantile period (0 - 3 years old), the device can evaluate the sensitivity of children to sounds and their auditory discrimination ability through simple audio stimulation and gamified interactive tests; in the preschool period (3 - 8 years old), more targeted language training tasks can be designed, such as pronunciation practice, vocabulary learning, etc.

[0005] In addition, the intervention strategy combined with the timeline can better help children gradually improve their language level. In the infantile period, the focus is on cultivating basic auditory perception ability; in the preschool period, it is necessary to strengthen the training of language understanding and expression ability; and after entering the school age (3 - 8 years old), the learning of social communication skills and grammar rules can be further strengthened. Through such phased and systematic intervention, the language development level of children will be significantly improved.

[0006] In summary, the early detection and scientific intervention of congenital hearing loss are of utmost importance. By using devices such as hearing aids or cochlear implants for hearing compensation and combining with professional speech training guidance, the language ability of children can be effectively improved. The development of intelligent and personalized evaluation and training devices provides strong tool support for guardians and speech training teachers, helping to maximize the development level of hearing-impaired children to reach that of normal children and laying a solid foundation for their future integration into society.

[0007] Therefore, a speech training hearing aid system equipped with an AI speech anomaly evaluation algorithm is provided. Summary of the Invention
