dc.description.abstractDoodle Me is an AI mobile application designed to bridge communication gaps and barriers. This tool is beneficial for individuals with articulation and phonological speech disorders. By using advanced machine learning algorithms, particularly a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), the application interprets user-created drawings in real-time. This app provides a universal mode of expression that transcends traditional language barriers. The CNN model is trained on the QuickDraw dataset which achieves an accuracy of 92.6%. The application is accessible and practical, functioning seamlessly across all smartphones. Doodle Me enhances communication by recognizing and categorizing doodles, and provides visual and auditory feedback to users. This tool provides a holistic approach by aiding at rehabilitation of numerous medical conditions. It deals with multilinguistics of different age groups and is also eco-friendly. The application serves as an assistive tool in the healthcare system. It can support a wide range of medical conditions, including post-ischemic stroke aphasia, facial paralysis, stuttering/stammering, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), post-operative laryngectomy or vocal cord paralysis, Alzheimer’s disease, and rehabilitation for post-cochlear implant patients (where children are taught about speech recognition by giving visual cues) and elderly with presbycusis (hearing loss at high frequencies). Doodle Me addresses communication barriers and promotes biosustainability by reducing the need for unnecessary stationary items. It is a practical application aimed at making a positive societal impact by facilitating seamless integration.en
