## Abstract (arXiv)

Stuttering is a complex speech disorder identified by repeti-tions, prolongations of sounds, syllables or words and blockswhile speaking. Specific stuttering behaviour differs strongly,thus needing personalized therapy. Therapy sessions requirea high level of concentration by the therapist. We introduceSTAN, a system to aid speech therapists in stuttering therapysessions. Such an automated feedback system can lower thecognitive load on the therapist and thereby enable a more con-sistent therapy as well as allowing analysis of stuttering overthe span of multiple therapy sessions.
