Intelligent facilitation of communications

1. A method for intelligent facilitation of communication by a processor, comprising:

identifying a communication error in one or more selected portions of a communication of a user, wherein the communication error is identified from categories of communication errors, the categories including at least: phonemic paraphasia, semantic paraphasia, circumlocution, echolalia, verbal stereotypy, mixed language, and dialect; and

automatically translating the communication error from one or more of the identified categories in the one or more selected portions of the communication.

2. The method of claim 1 , further including:

providing one or more interpretations for the communication error; or

providing one or more suggestions to the user providing the communications so as to correct the communication error according to a knowledge domain.

3. The method of claim 1 , further including classifying the communication error into one of a plurality of communication error categories.

4. The method of claim 1 , further including defining the communication error as a punctuational error, a sound error, a semantic substitution, a different language, one or more incorrect, incomprehensible, meaningless, repeated, missing words or phrases, or a combination thereof from the user experiencing a decline in a neurological state.

5. The method of claim 1 , further including monitoring the communication to detect a change in one or more contextual factors, a communication style, a communication tone, a speed of communication, communication patterns, a health state of the user, or a combination thereof for detecting the communication error.

6. The method of claim 1 , further including initializing a machine learning mechanism for:

identifying the communication error;

translating the communication error;

learning an appropriateness of the communications for the user according to a knowledge domain; and

learning and analyzing a type of communication error according to one of a plurality of communication error categories.

7. The method of claim 1 , further including collecting feedback information from the user or an alternative user during a dialog between the user and the alternative user.

8. A system for intelligent facilitation of communication, comprising:

one or more computers with executable instructions that when executed cause the system to:

identify a communication error in one or more selected portions of a communication of a user, wherein the communication error is identified from categories of communication errors, the categories including at least: phonemic paraphasia, semantic paraphasia, circumlocution, echolalia, verbal stereotypy, mixed language, and dialect; and

automatically translate the communication error from one or more of the identified categories in the one or more selected portions of the communication.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the executable instructions:

provide one or more interpretations for the communication error; or

providing one or more suggestions to the user providing the communications so as to correct the communication error according to a knowledge domain.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the executable instructions classify the communication error into one of a plurality of communication error categories.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the executable instructions define the communication error as a punctuational error, a sound error, a semantic substitution, a different language, one or more incorrect, incomprehensible, meaningless, repeated, missing words or phrases, or a combination thereof from the user experiencing a decline in a neurological state.

12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the executable instructions monitor the communication to detect a change in one or more contextual factors, a communication style, a communication tone, a speed of communication, communication patterns, a health state of the user, or a combination thereof for detecting the communication error.

13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the executable instructions initialize a machine learning mechanism for:

identifying the communication error;

translating the communication error;

learning an appropriateness of the communications for the user according to a knowledge domain; and

learning and analyzing a type of communication error according to one of a plurality of communication error categories.

14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the executable instructions collect feedback information from the user or an alternative user during a dialog between the user and the alternative user.

15. A computer program product for intelligent facilitation of communication by a processor, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program code portions stored therein, the computer-readable program code portions comprising:

an executable portion that identifies a communication error in one or more selected portions of a communication of a user, wherein the communication error is identified from categories of communication errors, the categories including at least: phonemic paraphasia, semantic paraphasia, circumlocution, echolalia, verbal stereotypy, mixed language, and dialect; and

an executable portion that automatically translates the communication error from one or more of the identified categories in the one or more selected portions of the communication.

16. The computer program product of claim 15 , further including an executable portion that:

provides one or more interpretations for the communication error; or

provides one or more suggestions to the user providing the communications so as to correct the communication error according to a knowledge domain.

17. The computer program product of claim 15 , further including an executable portion that:

classifies the communication error into one of a plurality of communication error categories; or

defines the communication error as a punctuational error, a sound error, a semantic substitution, a different language, one or more incorrect, incomprehensible, meaningless, repeated, missing words or phrases, or a combination thereof.

18. The computer program product of claim 15 , further including an executable portion that monitors the communication to detect a change in one or more contextual factors, a communication style, a communication tone, a speed of communication, communication patterns, a health state of the user, or a combination thereof.

19. The computer program product of claim 15 , further including an executable portion that:

identifies the communication error;

translates the communication error;

learns an appropriateness of the communications for the user according to a knowledge domain; and

learns and analyzes a type of communication error according to one of a plurality of communication error categories.

20. The computer program product of claim 15 , further including an executable portion that collects feedback information from the user or an alternative user during a dialog between the user and the alternative user.
