Laishram Rahul, Vinoth Kumar

Abstract: Speech is a vocalized form of human communication. Clarity of the voice is a major dependent factor for a good quality speech. It is necessary to have the means for measuring the clarity of the voice and train to improve it. In this paper, we describe the development of a system for measuring the speech quality through clarity of voice production. An Android system is built for the purpose where the user gives speech input and the resulted output is the measurement of the speech quality. The system also differentiates human speech to other sounds. If a non-speech sound is given as an input to the system, the user will be prompted to re-record again.
