Speechome
Encyclopedia
The totality of human
speech components such as phoneme
which is the smallest contrastive unit in the sound system of a language
.
Speechome is different from common biological -omes such as genome
, proteome
, and expressome
in that it is not biological. However, speechome reflects the omics trend in biology
and science
in general.
Academic researchers in speech and hearing science and machine-produced speech from Massachusetts, according to a CNN news story from March 2011, used complex recording devices and microphones to record every aspect of the evolution of their son's speech over the time span of three years; with the use of complex algorithms this enabled them to trace the development and context of individual words and phrases across that time.

Speechome is different from common biological -omes such as genome
Genome
In modern molecular biology and genetics, the genome is the entirety of an organism's hereditary information. It is encoded either in DNA or, for many types of virus, in RNA. The genome includes both the genes and the non-coding sequences of the DNA/RNA....
, proteome
Proteome
The proteome is the entire set of proteins expressed by a genome, cell, tissue or organism. More specifically, it is the set of expressed proteins in a given type of cells or an organism at a given time under defined conditions. The term is a portmanteau of proteins and genome.The term has been...

Expressome
Expressome refers to the whole set of gene expression in a cell, tissue, organ, organisms, and species.Expressome is a slightly larger concept than transcriptome...
