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…
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,…
Dementia is a syndrome characterised by the decline of different cognitive abilities. Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most common dementia affecting cognitive domains such as memory and learning, perceptual-motion or executive function.…
This paper describes a multi-modal approach for the automatic detection of Alzheimer's disease proposed in the context of the INESC-ID Human Language Technology Laboratory participation in the ADReSS 2020 challenge. Our classification…
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…
Collecting and accessing a large amount of medical data is very time-consuming and laborious, not only because it is difficult to find specific patients but also because it is required to resolve the confidentiality of a patient's medical…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and recently attracts extensive attention worldwide. Speech technology is considered a promising solution for the early diagnosis of AD and has been enthusiastically…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) constitutes a complex neurocognitive disease and is the main cause of dementia. Although many studies have been proposed targeting at diagnosing dementia through spontaneous speech, there are still limitations.…
Early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is crucial in facilitating preventive care and to delay further progression. Speech based automatic AD screening systems provide a non-intrusive and more scalable alternative to other clinical…
Alzheimer's dementia (AD) is of increasing concern as populations achieve longer lifespans. Many of the recent failed AD clinical trials recruiting cognitively intact individuals had a low number of AD events and were thus underpowered.…
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…
Neurological disorders that affect speech production, such as Alzheimer's Disease (AD), significantly impact the lives of both patients and caregivers, whether through social, psycho-emotional effects or other aspects not yet fully…
Alzheimer's dementia (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with cognitive decline that commonly impacts language ability. This work extends the paired perplexity approach to detecting AD by using a recent large language model (LLM), the…
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) ravages the cognitive ability of more than 5 million Americans and creates an enormous strain on the health care system. This paper proposes a machine learning predictive model for AD development without medical…
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…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive decline, structural brain changes, and genetic predispositions. This study leverages machine-learning and statistical techniques to investigate…
Dementia is a progressive cognitive syndrome with Alzheimer's disease (AD) as the leading cause. Conversation-based AD detection offers a cost-effective alternative to clinical methods, as language dysfunction is an early biomarker of AD.…
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition that adversely affects cognitive abilities. Language-related changes can be automatically identified through the analysis of outputs from linguistic assessment tasks,…
Dementia is a growing problem as our society ages, and detection methods are often invasive and expensive. Recent deep-learning techniques can offer a faster diagnosis and have shown promising results. However, they require large amounts of…
Alzheimers disease (AD) is a severe neurological brain disorder. It is not curable, but earlier detection can help improve symptoms in a great deal. The machine learning based approaches are popular and well motivated models for medical…
