1. A method comprising:
obtaining an indication of a speech pattern of a subject;
using the indication to determine, using processing circuitry, a predicted time of inspiration by the subject based on a machine learning model for predicting a relationship between the speech pattern and a breathing pattern of the subject; and
controlling delivery of gas to the subject based on the predicted time of inspiration by the subject.
