초록

언어발달 장애를 가진 아동들은 일상생활 및 사회생활에서 많은 어려움을 겪으며 이는 생애 전반을 걸쳐 지속된다. 언어발달 장애 아동들은 의사소통 수단인 언어를 이해하거나 사용하는 데에 어려움을 겪기 때문에 종종 사회적 활동에 참여할 기회를 박탈당하곤 한다. 이와 관련해서 Augmentative and Alternative Communication(AAC, 보완대체 의사소통)는 언어장애를 앓는 이들에게 실직적인 의사소통 수단으로 사용될 수 있다. 본 논문은 픽토그램을 AAC의 수단으로써 최대한 활용하여 언어발달 장애 아동이 타인과 의사소통하고 언어 이해 능력을 향상시킬 수 있도록 돕는 딥러닝 기반 인공지능 서비스를 제안한다. 본 서비스를 통해 언어 문제를 겪고 있는 이들이 자신의 의도 혹은 욕구를 보다 수월하게 표현하여 삶의 질이 향상 될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Children with language developmental disabilities often struggle through their lives from a lot of challenges in everyday life and social activities. They're often easily deprived of the opportunity to engage in social activities, because they find difficulty in understanding or using language, a core means of communication. With regard to this issue, AAC(Augmentative and Alternative Communication) can be an effective communication tool for children who are suffering from language disabilities. In this paper, we propose a deep learning-based AI service to make full use of the pictogram as an AAC tool for children with language developmental disabilities to improve not only the ability to interact with others but the capacity to understand language. Using this service, we strive to help these children to more effectively communicate their intention or desire and enhance the quality of life.
