## Collaboration with academic partners

The ELSA Lab AI for Health Equity explores how AI can be developed in a fair and inclusive way, with specific attention to underrepresented groups in healthcare. The University of Amsterdam (UvA) and Utrecht University (UU) are the largest academic partners within this four-year initiative.

ITSLanguage contributes to this project as part of the consortium. Within KAT, we apply insights regarding legal and ethical aspects of AI. What this concretely means for KAT in the coming years:

- Deepening KAT as an analysis tool
- Researching MDR certification for diagnostic or treatment advice
- Integration with screening, testing, or training applications
- Adding at least four new languages to KAT
- Integration of speech technology for automatic sound recognition, where the speech therapist only needs to correct when necessary

We have worked for years with speech therapists and linguists and are proud to now also have scientific collaboration for KAT. Do you know KAT and want to contribute ideas about future applications? Get in touch.

## Collaboration with the Royal Auris Group

The Royal Auris Group has been using KAT for some time and has extended its initial five-year license agreement to seven years. Auris not only uses KAT, but their speech therapists and linguists also contribute ideas for further development and innovation opportunities. We value Auris's trust in this joint direction.

## Collaboration with speech therapy education programs

In cooperation with universities of applied sciences, we are exploring how KAT can be integrated into the third-year curriculum of speech therapy programs.

## KAT free for students and educators

Students and educators can use KAT free of charge. Submit your institutional email address through our contact form to request access.

## New features in KAT (June 2025)

These developments have been completed and are currently being tested by members of the advisory group. They will be available in KAT by June:

- Free trial period extended to 4 months: Two months proved too short for independent practitioners who use the tool only occasionally
- Integrated e-learning: Easier to use and better extensible to other languages
- Improved layout of news and support items
- Modified assimilation indication: The ‘+’ symbol remains available, but the automatic listing in the Processes tab has been disabled to offer more flexibility for cross-sentence assimilation
- PDF export: In addition to XLS, export to PDF is now possible, with the option to select specific sheets

## Requests from the field

We received requests from users for additional functionality. Do you recognize these needs or have additions? Let us know:

- **Test-taking function:** Display an image linked to the word list on a second device (e.g., tablet or phone)
- **Treatment function:** A simplified analysis/summary that can be easily shared with parents


ITSLanguage collaborates with academic partners (UvA, UU) in the 'ELSA Lab AI for Health Equity' for speech therapy. KAT is being expanded with new features, languages, and links to diagnostic tools. Collaborations with Auris and universities of applied sciences strengthen scientific and educational integration. Students and educators get free access. New features in June 2025 include a longer trial period, integrated e-learning, PDF export, and improved layout. Users request testing and treatment features such as image display and parent-friendly analyses.

ITSLanguage Newsletter – Spring 2025

The Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) has awarded 2.3 million to a new research initiative on artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare. The [ELSA Lab for Equitable Care](https://healthy-ai.org/) investigates how AI can be developed fairly and inclusively, with a particular focus on underrepresented groups in healthcare.

As ITSLanguage, we are co-funding the consortium from industry. We commit ourselves to this project for 4 years. We mainly work on improvements in and around the KAT and apply the insights gained from research on legal and ethical aspects of AI. This is on the program for the KAT in the coming years:

- Further development to make KAT an even better analysis tool.
- Investigate (and possibly implement) Medical Device Regulations (MDR) certification on KAT where we go beyond analysis and move towards making a diagnosis or creating a treatment plan.
- Linkage or integration with adjacent tooling to add screening, testing or exercise in addition to analysis e.g.
- Integration of speech technology for automatic sound recognition so that the speech therapist, when administering a word list, only has to adjust where AI is wrong.
- Adding at least 4 new languages to the KAT.

Although we have been seeking collaboration with speech therapists and linguists for ages, we will intensify this further. Are you interested in using this tooling in your practice and would you like to contribute ideas on how to make it even better? Get in touch!


The Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) has awarded 2.3 million to a new research initiative on artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare. Together with UVA, UU and other partners, this is going to mean not only new insights on how to use AI responsibly in healthcare, but also a boost for KAT over the next 4 years. (September 2025 to September 2029)
The KAT is a tool that gives more insight into a child's sound development.

KAT gets boosted by "AI for Health Equity"


"The Sound Analysis Tool (SAT) enables an analysis that I am not currently performing." This was said by one of the 380 attendees during the presentation of the SAT last month at the annual congress of the [NVLF | Dutch Association for Speech Therapy and Phoniatrics](https://www.linkedin.com/company/nederlandse-vereniging-voor-logopedie-en-foniatrie/). There, [Kees van den Broek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/keesvdb/) together with innovation advisor [Yvonne van Vilsteren](https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-van-vilsteren-3491631b8/), from the Royal Auris Group, explained the functioning of the Sound Analysis Tool.

With the SAT, speech therapists and linguists can easily perform a phonological analysis based on a child's utterances (based on naming tasks or spontaneous language). The overview generated by the SAT provides insight into the sound development of a child, thereby providing input for treatment goals (or group goals).

"What a super handy tool," said a small independent speech therapy practice. Gaining insight into a child's sound development takes so much time that it is often not done in a structured and uniform manner.

Together with the Royal Auris Group, we developed the SAT. Since last summer, it has been available as a full-fledged tool for all speech therapists in the Netherlands. Over the coming years, Auris aims to further optimize and expand the SAT together with a user group and ITSLanguage. For example, by integrating with other systems such as BergOp and conducting a vowel sound analysis. For future plans and all functionalities, including e-learning, visit the SAT website: [sat.itslanguage.nl](https://sat.itslanguage.nl).

></iframe>


The Klank Analyse Tool (KAT) was presented at the NVLF Year Congress 2023, where Kees van den Broek and Yvonne van Vilsteren from the Royal Auris Group explained its functionality. The KAT allows speech therapists and linguists to easily conduct phonological analyses based on a child's expressions, providing insight into their sound development for treatment goals. It has been well-received by the speech therapy community for streamlining the analysis process. Developed in collaboration with the Royal Auris Group, the KAT is now available as a comprehensive tool for all speech therapists in the Netherlands. Future plans include optimization and expansion in collaboration with users and ITSLanguage, integrating with other systems like BergOp, and adding features such as vowel sound analysis and e-learning modules, available on the KAT website.

Presentation of Sound Analysis Tool at NVLF Annual Conference 2023


An experienced linguist at Royal Auris Group, Lisa de Wit administered the NAO to two children for comparison. One without KAT (Sound Analysis Tool) and one with KAT. The choice was made to test the 'normal NAO' and only the initial, medial and final consonants. So not the clusters! In this article, we will discuss the results of this comparison and examine the advantages of using KAT.

**Analysis without KAT:**
Lisa started the first session without KAT. The collection and elaboration took a total of 50 minutes.

**Procedure:**
Her methodology included writing down all the results. She noted that this becomes very confusing when you record this digitally in ONS. Because of this method of analysis, she was looking more in broad outlines rather than having a good understanding of all the details. Thus, she quickly saw that a number of processes were present, but did not get a good overview of which sounds were acquired. To get the overview, Lisa completed another phoneme repertoire. This took her about five minutes. This gave Lisa more insight and allowed her to establish the treatment plan for the child.The goal for the child becomes practising with initial /s/ and /t/ because there is backing present on those sounds.

**With KAT:**
The intake and elaboration took only 15 minutes.

**Method:**
Lisa typed the child's utterances directly into the excel file and uploaded it to the KAT. The analysis was downloaded and easily interpreted. The result was clear and indicated that the child needed practice with final /f/ and initial clusters due to cluster reduction.

**Conclusion:**
The conclusion of Lisa's comparison was clear: the Sound Analysis Tool (KAT) helped significantly in speeding up analysis. KAT's structured representation of processes made it easier for Lisa to create a treatment plan. With significant time savings and a more detailed understanding of sound development, the use of KAT seems to be a valuable addition to the work of the linguist. This raises the question of whether similar tools could be more widely implemented in speech analysis within education and healthcare in the future.

# The Smart Three Minute Test (DMT)

## What is the Three Minute Test?

The Three Minute Test (DMT) evaluates a child's reading speed and accuracy by counting how many individual words they can read in three minutes. The student is provided with a card containing 4 or 5 rows of 30 distinct words. The objective for the child is to orally read as many words as feasible within 1 minute. The teacher, during this time, marks any words that are mispronounced. After the minute elapses, the student is given another card with more challenging words. At the end of the three minutes, the total number of correctly read words is calculated, subtracting any mispronounced ones. The DMT is a staple in 70% of primary schools in the Netherlands, with each child being tested individually by the teacher, assistant teacher, or internal supervisor. Internationally, similar tests, comparable to the DMT such as the AVI keys (reading texts instead of individual words), are conducted in a like manner.

## Bottlenecks in the Current Three-Minute Test

- **Labour Intensive:** Administering the DMT requires significant effort.
- **One-on-One Requirement:** A teacher or facilitator is needed for each student to time the test using a stopwatch while simultaneously noting down any pronunciation errors.
- **Organizational Challenges:** Due to its nature, a quiet environment is often sought for the DMT. Conducting the test for all groups multiple times a year demands significant logistical planning.
- **Subjectivity:** Although guided by nationally established assessment criteria, it's up to the teacher's discretion to determine if a word has been pronounced correctly.
- **Processing Difficulties:** The recorded readings need to be manually uploaded for each student to a centralized server, making retrieval challenging. Furthermore, scores must be processed manually.

## Objective of the Smart Three Minute Test

The aim is to create an intelligent DMT with digital sampling and automated evaluation via advanced speech technology, which will be tested in a pilot phase. Anticipated benefits include:

- **Efficiency:** A group of students can conduct the smart DMT simultaneously and independently. The automated system checks their performance in real-time, drastically reducing costs.
- **Data Management:** Results are systematically stored, offering statistics on progress and performance. This data can be integrated seamlessly with student tracking systems.
- **Time Saving:** The invaluable time of limited teaching staff is preserved. The consistent evaluation system also allows for the playback of recorded words for manual assessment by a teacher at a later time.
- **Flexibility:** The system provides opportunities for practice outside of traditional settings, like at home. Additionally, through the app, there are options for visual font adjustments and other enhancements.

## Achieved Results of the Smart Three-Minute-Test

Our primary achievements stem from R&D efforts, where we've mastered the detection of words in succession at a rapid pace (real-time). This technology has been implemented in a final product designed for educators, as demonstrated in the subsequent screens:

# Pilot Transcription of Spontaneous Speech: A Leap Forward in Speech Therapy

In our relentless pursuit of innovation, we are thrilled to announce the commencement of a pilot application specifically designed for speech therapy in the Netherlands.

Transcribing spontaneous speech, especially in therapeutic contexts, has long been a labor-intensive task. A conversation spanning just 10 to 20 minutes can demand up to an hour of transcription time. We believe there's a more efficient way to approach this challenge.

By expediting the transcription process, therapists can conduct analyses more frequently, potentially leading to more effective treatments. Envision a scenario where, before initiating a treatment session, therapists can effortlessly access a dashboard. This dashboard provides an overview of progress since the last session, amalgamated with insights from at-home practice.

We're currently exploring practical implementation in collaboration with [Auris](https://auris.nl/).

We're eager to collaborate with speech therapists interested in test-driving our innovative tool. Your feedback will be invaluable in refining and enhancing the application. If you're intrigued by the potential of our pilot project, we invite you to get in touch with us.
