“…For instance, automatic speech recognition tools were employed in detecting aphasia (Fraser et al, 2013b;Fraser et al, 2014;Fraser et al, 2013a) and mild cognitive impairment (Lehr et al, 2012), and Alzheimer's Disease (Baldas et al, 2010;Satt et al, 2014). Jarrold et al (2014) distinguished four types of dementia on the basis of spontaneous speech samples.
