Abstract Robotics are effectively utilized in the field of speech therapy because, most of the people affected by the apraxia speech problem which is one of the neurological disorder. This disorder occurred due to the Alzheimer disease, stroke that affects the movement of mouth severely. These neurological disease affected people requires more attention while training the speech therapy. Traditional approaches are fail to manage the accuracy while making training also consumes more time to get result. So, in this paper introduces the metaheuristic optimized algorithm called artificial cuckoo immune system method to examine the mouth posterior which helps to provide the speech therapy with the help of robotics. This process helps to perform therapy session in both partial as well as automatic manner. The efficiency of robotic speech therapy process is analyzed using MATLAB based experimental process. During this process introduced system ensures 96.8% of accuracy, 97.1% of precision value, 96.9% of recall value and 98.2% of F1-score value.

1 Introduction Apraxia speech (AOS) disorder [1] is one of the motor speech disorders that affect human speech abilities due to the neurological disabilities. This speech disorder affects patient idea, program, behavior, coordination and action on the speech process. These uncontrolled and inability of motor actions leads to create difficulties in speech because it affects the pattern movement and volitional [2]. This apraxia speech problem occurred due to the brain damages like progressive illness and stroke. So, the speech production process must be enhanced by creating proper planning, muscle coordination and sequencing procedure. In addition to this, speech related muscles are continuously retrained to get the exact sounds and words from mouth. For providing effective speech retrain, exercises are one of the successful way in which persons are regularly practice the word related mouth movement [3]. Presently, different types of speech psychotherapy such as motor control based & Mohammed Al-Ma’aitah [email protected] 1

intervention, augmented system based intervention and melodies based interventions are provided to affected people to recover from the AOS disorder. In motor control based intervention [4], exercises are mostly provided depending on the phonemes related mouth movements. During this exercise, the persons are trained to pronounce the phonemes with accurate manner. Next one is, augmented system based intervention [5], t
