Linguistic anomalies detectable in spontaneous speech have shown promise for various clinical applications including screening for dementia and other forms of cognitive impairment. The feasibility of deploying automated tools that can…
Alzheimer's disease is a common cognitive disorder in the elderly. Early and accurate diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has a major impact on the progress of research on dementia. At present, researchers have used machine learning…
Alzheimer's disease is one of the diseases that mostly affects older people without being a part of aging. The most common symptoms include problems with communicating and abstract thinking, as well as disorientation. It is important to…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) has become one of the most significant health challenges in an aging society. The use of spoken language-based AD detection methods has gained prevalence due to their scalability due to their scalability. Based on…
Speaker embeddings extracted from voice recordings have been proven valuable for dementia detection. However, by their nature, these embeddings contain identifiable information which raises privacy concerns. In this work, we aim to…
A common neurodegenerative disease, Alzheimer's disease requires a precise diagnosis and efficient treatment, particularly in light of escalating healthcare expenses and the expanding use of artificial intelligence in medical diagnostics.…
Previous researchers have proposed intelligent systems for therapeutic monitoring of cognitive impairments. However, most existing practical approaches for this purpose are based on manual tests. This raises issues such as excessive…
Compared to other clinical screening techniques, speech-and-language-based automated Alzheimer's disease (AD) detection methods are characterized by their non-invasiveness, cost-effectiveness, and convenience. Previous studies have…
Machine learning methods have shown large potential for the automatic early diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). However, some machine learning methods based on imaging data have poor interpretability because it is usually unclear how…
Parkinson's Disease (PD) affects over 10 million people worldwide, with speech impairments in up to 89% of patients. Current speech-based detection systems analyze entire utterances, potentially overlooking the diagnostic value of specific…
Dementia is a neurological syndrome marked by cognitive decline. Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are the common forms of dementia, each with distinct progression patterns. EEG, a non-invasive tool for recording…
We propose an automatic detection method of Alzheimer's diseases using a gated convolutional neural network (GCNN) from speech data. This GCNN can be trained with a relatively small amount of data and can capture the temporal information in…
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…
Cognitive impairment detection through spontaneous speech is a promising avenue for early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI), where timely intervention can significantly improve patient outcomes. The…
Alzheimer's disease and related dementias(ADRD) affect nearly five million older adults in the United States, yet more than half remain undiagnosed. Speech-based natural language processing(NLP) offers a scalable approach for detecting…
Language is a valuable source of clinical information in Alzheimer's Disease, as it declines concurrently with neurodegeneration. Consequently, speech and language data have been extensively studied in connection with its diagnosis. This…
Dementia is a neuropsychiatric brain disorder that usually occurs when one or more brain cells stop working partially or at all. Diagnosis of this disorder in the early phases of the disease is a vital task to rescue patients lives from bad…
Early and accessible detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains a major challenge, as current diagnostic methods often rely on costly and invasive biomarkers. Speech and language analysis has emerged as a promising non-invasive and…
This paper explores deterioration in Alzheimers Disease using Machine Learning. Subjects were split into two datasets based on baseline diagnosis (Cognitively Normal, Mild Cognitive Impairment), with outcome of deterioration at final visit…
Alzheimer's disease is an untreatable, progressive brain disorder that slowly robs people of their memory, thinking abilities, and ultimately their capacity to complete even the most basic tasks. Among older adults, it is the most frequent…
