Résumé : Cerebellar disorders can have various causes and their identification requires the expertise from a practitioner. Recently, a new technique based on speech performance measurement and classification has presented itself as a promising diagnostic tool. Recording speech is not trivial and some caution has to be taken regarding noise, recording equipment, data acquisition hardware, and software. The speech stimuli used in the recording are also important because they are not all suited for all use. They are divided into two main categories: speech and nonspeech stimuli. The same applies for the acoustic measures that can relate to the temporal or frequency domain. There have been studies that try to classify dysarthria based on speech acoustics. They show various accuracies based on disease severity and the acoustic measurement(s) used.
