Automatic objective non-invasive detection of pathological voice based on computerized analysis of acoustic signals can play an important role in early diagnosis, progression tracking and even effective treatment of pathological voices. In…

Automatic detection and severity assessment of dysarthria are crucial for delivering targeted therapeutic interventions to patients. While most existing research focuses primarily on speech modality, this study introduces a novel approach…

During the first years of life, infant vocalizations change considerably, as infants develop the vocalization skills that enable them to produce speech sounds. Characterizations based on specific acoustic features, protophone categories, or…

Interactive cognitive assessment tools may be valuable for doctors and therapists to reduce costs and improve quality in healthcare systems. Use cases and scenarios include the assessment of dementia. In this paper, we present our approach…

The EmoPain 2020 Challenge is the first international competition aimed at creating a uniform platform for the comparison of machine learning and multimedia processing methods of automatic chronic pain assessment from human expressive…

Millions of people suffer from mental health conditions, yet many remain undiagnosed or receive delayed care due to limited clinical resources and labor-intensive assessment methods. While most machine-assisted approaches focus on…

Early detection of asthma in children is crucial to prevent long-term respiratory complications and reduce emergency interventions. This work presents an AI-powered diagnostic pipeline that leverages Googles Health Acoustic Representations…

Pain is a serious worldwide health problem that affects a vast proportion of the population. For efficient pain management and treatment, accurate classification and evaluation of pain severity are necessary. However, this can be…

Audio processing methods operating on a time-frequency representation of the signal can introduce unpleasant sounding artifacts known as musical noise. These artifacts are observed in the context of audio coding, speech enhancement, and…

This paper addresses the issue of cough detection using only audio recordings, with the ultimate goal of quantifying and qualifying the degree of pathology for patients suffering from respiratory diseases, notably mucoviscidosis. A large…

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems increasingly match or surpass human experts in biomedical signal interpretation. However, their effective integration into clinical practice requires more than high predictive accuracy. Clinicians must…

Motivated by the goals of dataset pruning and defect identification, a growing body of methods have been developed to score individual examples within a dataset. These methods, which we call "example difficulty scores", are typically used…

Estimating personal well-being draws increasing attention particularly from healthcare and pharmaceutical industries. We propose an approach to estimate personal well-being in terms of various measurements such as anxiety, sleep quality and…

Hypernasality is an abnormal resonance in human speech production, especially in patients with craniofacial anomalies such as cleft palate. In clinical application, hypernasality estimation is crucial in cleft palate diagnosis, as its…

The novel research area of computational empathy is in its infancy and moving towards developing methods and standards. One major problem is the lack of agreement on the evaluation of empathy in artificial interactive systems. Even though…

Pain is a complex phenomenon which is manifested and expressed by patients in various forms. The immediate and objective recognition of it is a great of importance in order to attain a reliable and unbiased healthcare system. In this work,…

Severe sepsis and septic shock are conditions that affect millions of patients and have close to 50% mortality rate. Early identification of at-risk patients significantly improves outcomes. Electronic surveillance tools have been developed…

One of the challenges in affect recognition is accurate estimation of the emotion intensity level. This research proposes development of an affect intensity estimation model based on a weighted sum of classification confidence levels,…

Changes in speech and language are among the first signs of Parkinson's disease (PD). Thus, clinicians have tried to identify individuals with PD from their voices for years. Doctors can leverage AI-based speech assessments to spot PD…

Pain is a common reason for accessing healthcare resources and is a growing area of research, especially in its overlap with mental health. Mental health electronic health records are a good data source to study this overlap. However, much…
