Abstract
Techniques are described for calculating one or more verbal fluency scores for a person. An example method includes classifying, by a computing device, samples of audio data of speech of a person, based on amplitudes of the samples, into a first class of samples including speech or sound and a second class of samples including silence. The method further includes analyzing the first class of samples to determine a number of words spoken by the person, and calculating a verbal fluency score for the person based at least in part on the determined number of words spoken by the person.
