Automated remote speech‐based testing of individuals with cognitive decline: Bayesian agreement of transcription accuracy
High levels of agreement were found between automated and gold-standard manual transcriptions of telephone chatbot-based semantic verbal fluency testing, particularly for word count.The qualitative features had fair levels of agreement.Word count reached high levels of discrimination between cognitively impaired and unimpaired individuals, regardless of transcription mode.Automated speech recognition for the assessment of quantitative and qualitative speech features, even when using data from telephone calls with cognitively impaired individuals in their homes, seems feasible and reliable.
