• Description: Stroke rehabilitation is a complex process consisting of numerous treatment modules. In this work, we aim at diagnosing possible stroke-related language pathologies (e.g. aphasia, dysarthria, apraxia) by analyzing spoken language. Resulting symptoms should be detected with high accuracy. Based on this, appropriate mobile treatment procedures are to be developed and tested on patients.
