The management of chronic Heart Failure (HF) presents significant challenges in modern healthcare, requiring continuous monitoring, early detection of exacerbations, and personalized treatment strategies. In this paper, we present a…
Heart Disease has become one of the most serious diseases that has a significant impact on human life. It has emerged as one of the leading causes of mortality among the people across the globe during the last decade. In order to prevent…
Abbreviation is a common phenomenon across languages, especially in Chinese. In most cases, if an expression can be abbreviated, its abbreviation is used more often than its fully expanded forms, since people tend to convey information in a…
It is widely accepted that information derived from analyzing speech (the acoustic signal) and language production (words and sentences) serves as a useful window into the health of an individual's cognitive ability. In fact, most…
A database of fetal heart rate (FHR) time series measured from 7221 patients during labor is analyzed with the aim of learning the types of features of these recordings that are informative of low cord pH. Our 'highly comparative' analysis…
Large language models (LLMs) have been increasingly applied to automated harmful content detection tasks, assisting moderators in identifying policy violations and improving the overall efficiency and accuracy of content review. However,…
Cardiovascular disease (CD) is the number one leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for more than 17 million deaths in 2015. Critical indicators of CD include heart murmurs, intense sounds emitted by the heart during periods of…
Elderly speech poses unique challenges for automatic processing due to age-related changes such as slower articulation and vocal tremors. Existing Chinese datasets are mostly recorded in controlled environments, limiting their diversity and…
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common atrial arrhythmia that impairs quality of life and causes embolic stroke, heart failure and other complications. Recent advancements in machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) have shown potential…
Depression is a global mental health problem, the worst case of which can lead to suicide. An automatic depression detection system provides great help in facilitating depression self-assessment and improving diagnostic accuracy. In this…
Heart failure (HF) affects 11.8% of adults aged 65 and older, reducing quality of life and longevity. Preventing HF can reduce morbidity and mortality. We hypothesized that artificial intelligence (AI) applied to 24-hour single-lead…
The Chinese numerical string corpus, serves as a valuable resource for speaker verification, particularly in financial transactions. Researches indicate that in short speech scenarios, text-dependent speaker verification (TD-SV)…
Ischemic heart disease (IHD), particularly in its chronic stable form, is a subtle pathology due to its silent behavior before developing in unstable angina, myocardial infarction or sudden cardiac death. Machine learning techniques applied…
Deaf or hard-of-hearing (DHH) speakers typically have atypical speech caused by deafness. With the growing support of speech-based devices and software applications, more work needs to be done to make these devices inclusive to everyone. To…
The purpose of this paper is to compare different learnable frontends in medical acoustics tasks. A framework has been implemented to classify human respiratory sounds and heartbeats in two categories, i.e. healthy or affected by…
Heart failure (HF) is a critical condition in which the accurate prediction of mortality plays a vital role in guiding patient management decisions. However, clinical datasets used for mortality prediction in HF often suffer from an…
A lexical database tool tailored for phonological research is described. Database fields include transcriptions, glosses and hyperlinks to speech files. Database queries are expressed using HTML forms, and these permit regular expression…
Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of morbidity, mortality, and health care costs. Prolonged conduction through the myocardium can occur with HF, and a device-driven approach, termed cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), can improve…
Recent studies have used speech signals to assess depression. However, speech features can lead to serious privacy concerns. To address these concerns, prior work has used privacy-preserving speech features. However, using a subset of…
Singing voice synthesis and singing voice conversion have significantly advanced, revolutionizing musical experiences. However, the rise of "Deepfake Songs" generated by these technologies raises concerns about authenticity. Unlike Audio…
