Amid growing global mental health concerns, particularly among vulnerable groups, natural language processing offers a tremendous potential for early detection and intervention of people's mental disorders via analyzing their postings and…
Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent long-term neurodegenerative disease. Though the diagnostic criteria of PD are relatively well defined, the current medical imaging diagnostic procedures are expertise-demanding, and thus…
Aphasia is a common speech and language disorder, typically caused by a brain injury or a stroke, that affects millions of people worldwide. Detecting and assessing Aphasia in patients is a difficult, time-consuming process, and numerous…
Benign laryngeal voice disorders affect nearly one in five individuals and often manifest as dysphonia, while also serving as non-invasive indicators of broader physiological dysfunction. We introduce a clinically inspired hierarchical…
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a serious and debilitating disease affecting millions around the world. Its early detection using non-invasive means could enable preventive interventions that improve quality of life and…
Recent advances in speech-enabled AI, including Google's NotebookLM and OpenAI's speech-to-speech API, are driving widespread interest in voice interfaces globally. Despite this momentum, there exists no publicly available…
Parkinson's disease (PD) belongs to the class of neurodegenerative disorders that affect the central nervous system. It is usually defined as the gradual loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta, which causes both…
Hypernasality is a common characteristic symptom across many motor-speech disorders. For voiced sounds, hypernasality introduces an additional resonance in the lower frequencies and, for unvoiced sounds, there is reduced articulatory…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive disorder in which symptom burden and functional impairment evolve over time, making severity staging essential for clinical monitoring and treatment planning. However, many computational studies…
Parkinson's disease is a neurological condition that occurs in nearly 1% of the world's population. The disease is manifested by a drop in dopamine production, symptoms are cognitive and behavioural and include a wide range of personality…
Smart home technology has gained widespread adoption, facilitating effortless control of devices through voice commands. However, individuals with dysarthria, a motor speech disorder, face challenges due to the variability of their speech.…
Parkinsons disease (PD) diagnosis is challenging due to subtle early clinical signs. F-DOPA PET is commonly used for early PD diagnosis. We explore the potential of machine-learning (ML) based EEG features extracted from single-channel EEG…
Despite the growing advancements in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) models, the development of robust models for underrepresented languages, such as Nepali, remains a challenge. This research focuses on making an exhaustive and…
Speech enhancement in hearing aids remains a difficult task in nonstationary acoustic environments, mainly because current signal processing algorithms rely on fixed, manually tuned parameters that cannot adapt in situ to different users or…
We present an efficient and accessible PD screening method by leveraging AI-driven models enabled by the largest video dataset of facial expressions from 1,059 unique participants. This dataset includes 256 individuals with PD, 165…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects nearly 50 million individuals across the globe and is one of the leading causes of deaths globally. It is projected that by 2050, the number of people affected by the…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological disorder that impairs movement control, leading to symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, and bradykinesia. Many researchers analyzing handwriting data for PD detection typically rely on…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition characterized by the death of dopaminergic neurons, leading to various movement disorder symptoms. Early diagnosis of PD is crucial to prevent adverse effects, yet…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological disorder requiring early and accurate diagnosis for effective management. Machine learning (ML) has emerged as a powerful tool to enhance PD classification and diagnostic accuracy, particularly by…
In the world, about 7 to 10 million elderly people are suffering from Parkinson's Disease (PD) disease. Parkinson's disease is a common neurological degenerative disease, and its clinical characteristics are Tremors, rigidity, bradykinesia,…
