“…Furthermore, this proposal is based on the description of speech pathologies [5,12] with regard to articulation, phonation, quality of the speech, human perception, and the complex dynamics of the system. In this paper, some of the most used speech features (linear and nonlinear) will be taken into account for differentiation between pathological and healthy and speech [4,5,[12][13][14][15][16], and discrimination [11] through human perception. Most of them are well known in the field of pathological speech characterization, and therefore for each parameter, a reference is given where further information and a deeper description can be found.…”
