Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for detecting monotone speech. In aspects, audio data provided by a user may be received a device. Pitch values may be calculated and/or extracted from the audio data. The non-zero pitch values may be divided into clusters. For each cluster, a Pitch Variation Quotient (PVQ) value may be calculated. The weighted average of PVQ values across the clusters may be calculated and compared to a threshold for determining monotone speech. Based on the comparison, the audio data may be classified as monotone or non-monotone and an indication of the classification may be provided to the user in real-time via a user interface. Upon the completion of the audio session in which the audio data is received, feedback for the audio data may be provided to the user via the user interface.

Abstract: A method and system for speech rehearsal assistant during a presentation rehearsal includes receiving audio data from a speech rehearsal session over a network, receiving a transcript for the audio data, the transcript including a plurality of words spoken during the speech rehearsal session, calculating a real time speaking rate for the speech rehearsal session, determining if the speaking rate is within a threshold range, detecting utterance of a filler phrase or sound during the speech rehearsal session using at least in part a machine learning model trained for identifying filler phrases and sounds in a text, and upon determining the speaking rate falls outside the threshold range or detecting the utterance of the filler phrase or sound, enabling real time display of a notification on a display device.
