A wide range of researches are carried out in this field for denoising, enhancement and more. Besides the other, stress management is important to identify the spot in which the stress has to be made in speech. In this paper, in order to provide proper speech practice for the abnormal child (mentally retarded (MR) child), their speech is analyzed. Initially, the normal and abnormal children speech is obtained with the same set of words. As an initial process, the Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients (MFCC) is extracted from both words and the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is applied to reduce the dimensionality of the words. From the dimensionality reduced words, the parameters are obtained and then these parameters are utilized to train using Support Vector Machines (SVM) for classification. After identifying the acute word (abnormal word), through the thresholding operation and then FFT is computed for the acute word and these parameters made use of the Fuzzy Inference system (FIS) for blemishing the acute spot in which the aberration is occurred in the world where the speech practice is required for the abnormal child which helps speech pathologist.
