We propose a non-invasive and cost-effective method to automatically detect dementia by utilizing solely speech audio data. We extract paralinguistic features for a short speech segment and use Gated Convolutional Neural Networks (GCNN) to…
This paper is a submission to the Alzheimer's Dementia Recognition through Spontaneous Speech (ADReSS) challenge, which aims to develop methods that can assist in the automated prediction of severity of Alzheimer's Disease from speech data.…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common form of dementia that severely impacts patient health. As AD impairs the patient's language understanding and expression ability, the speech of AD patients can serve as an indicator of this disease. This…
In the past decade, there has been a surge in research examining the use of voice and speech analysis as a means of detecting neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's. Many studies have shown that certain acoustic features can be used…
Reliable detection of the prodromal stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains difficult even today because, unlike other neurocognitive impairments, there is no definitive diagnosis of AD in vivo. In this context, existing research has…
Automatic detection of Alzheimer's dementia by speech processing is enhanced when features of both the acoustic waveform and the content are extracted. Audio and text transcription have been widely used in health-related tasks, as spectral…
Introduction: Alzheimer's disease is a type of dementia in which early diagnosis plays a major rule in the quality of treatment. Among new works in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, there are many of them analyzing the voice stream…
Graph neural network (GNN) models are increasingly being used for the classification of electroencephalography (EEG) data. However, GNN-based diagnosis of neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), remains a relatively…
This Signal Processing Grand Challenge (SPGC) targets a difficult automatic prediction problem of societal and medical relevance, namely, the detection of Alzheimer's Dementia (AD). Participants were invited to employ signal processing and…
In this paper, we combined linguistic complexity and (dis)fluency features with pretrained language models for the task of Alzheimer's disease detection of the 2021 ADReSSo (Alzheimer's Dementia Recognition through Spontaneous Speech)…
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is nowadays the most common form of dementia, and its automatic detection can help to identify symptoms at early stages, so that preventive actions can be carried out. Moreover, non-intrusive techniques based on…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an irreversible neurode generative disease of the brain.The disease may causes memory loss, difficulty communicating and disorientation. For the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, a series of scales are often…
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that gradually deprives the patient of cognitive function and can end in death. With the advancement of technology today, it is possible to detect Alzheimer's disease through…
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a significant and growing public health concern. Investigating alterations in speech and language patterns offers a promising path towards cost-effective and non-invasive early detection of AD on a large scale.…
As the aging of society continues to accelerate, Alzheimer's Disease (AD) has received more and more attention from not only medical but also other fields, such as computer science, over the past decade. Since speech is considered one of…
Alzheimers disease is a fatal progressive brain disorder that worsens with time. It is high time we have inexpensive and quick clinical diagnostic techniques for early detection and care. In previous studies, various Machine Learning…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease most often associated with memory deficits and cognitive decline. With the aging population, there has been much interest in automated methods for cognitive impairment…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurological disorder, meaning that the symptoms develop gradually throughout the years. It is also the main cause of dementia, which affects memory, thinking skills, and mental abilities. Nowadays,…
Brain-related diseases are more sensitive than other diseases due to several factors, including the complexity of surgical procedures, high costs, and other challenges. Alzheimer's disease is a common brain disorder that causes memory loss…
We present our submission to the ICASSP-SPGC-2023 ADReSS-M Challenge Task, which aims to investigate which acoustic features can be generalized and transferred across languages for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) prediction. The challenge consists…
