Every parent knows the frustration of responding to a baby's cries, wondering if their child is hungry, wet, tired, in need of a hug, or perhaps even in pain. A group of researchers in U.S. has devised a new artificial intelligence method that can identify and distinguish between normal cry signals and abnormal ones, such as those resulting from an underlying illness. The method, based on a cry language recognition algorithm, promises to be useful to parents at home as well as in healthcare settings, as doctors may use it to discern cries among sick children.
