Abstract
This chapter concerns the neural networks application for automatic evaluation of pathological speech. The main goal of the presented works is to find the neural network based methods for objective acoustic evaluation of the degree of speech deformation. Neural networks’ ability to adapt and learn is well known and can be used for this goal, but the objective of this presentation is to define the degree to which the technique of neural networks can be applied in evaluation of speech deformation in a given type of pathology.
