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…

For extracting a target speaker voice, direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation is crucial for binaural hearing aids operating in noisy, multi-speaker environments. Among the solutions developed for this task, a deep learning convolutional…

With the advancement of technologies, market wearables are becoming increasingly popular with a range of services, including providing access to bank accounts, accessing cars, monitoring patients remotely, among several others. However,…

In this technical report, the systems we submitted for subtask 4 of the DCASE 2021 challenge, regarding sound event detection, are described in detail. These models are closely related to the baseline provided for this problem, as they are…

Cases of laryngeal cancer are predicted to rise significantly in the coming years. Current diagnostic pathways are inefficient, putting undue stress on both patients and the medical system. Artificial intelligence offers a promising…

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of deaths and severely threaten human health in daily life. On the one hand, there have been dramatically increasing demands from both the clinical practice and the smart home application for…

Objective. Mammography reports document the diagnosis of patients' conditions. However, many reports contain non-standard terms (non-BI-RADS descriptors) and incomplete statements, which can lead to conclusions that are not well-supported…

We study efficient deep learning training algorithms that process received wireless signals, if a test Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) estimate is available. We focus on two tasks that facilitate source identification: 1- Identifying the…

Personalized speech intelligibility prediction is challenging. Previous approaches have mainly relied on audiograms, which are inherently limited in accuracy as they only capture a listener's hearing threshold for pure tones. Rather than…

Artificial intelligence holds great promise for expanding access to expert medical knowledge and reasoning. However, most evaluations of language models rely on static vignettes and multiple-choice questions that fail to reflect the…

Reading fluency assessment is a critical component of literacy programmes, serving to guide and monitor early education interventions. Given the resource intensive nature of the exercise when conducted by teachers, the development of…

Cochlear implants (CIs) play a vital role in restoring hearing for individuals with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss by directly stimulating the auditory nerve with electrical signals. While traditional coding strategies, such…

This paper proposes a weakly-supervised machine learning-based approach aiming at a tool to alert patients about possible respiratory diseases. Various types of pathologies may affect the respiratory system, potentially leading to severe…

Wav2vec 2.0 (W2V2) has shown strong performance in pathological speech analysis by effectively capturing the characteristics of atypical speech. Despite its success, it remains unclear which components of its learned representations are…

The goal of this paper is to learn strong lip reading models that can recognise speech in silent videos. Most prior works deal with the open-set visual speech recognition problem by adapting existing automatic speech recognition techniques…

COVID-19 infection caused by SARS-CoV-2 pathogen is a catastrophic pandemic outbreak all over the world with exponential increasing of confirmed cases and, unfortunately, deaths. In this work we propose an AI-powered pipeline, based on the…

Although automatic pathological speech detection approaches show promising results when clean recordings are available, they are vulnerable to additive noise. Recently it has been shown that databases commonly used to develop and evaluate…

Traditional speech separation and speaker diarization approaches rely on prior knowledge of target speakers or a predetermined number of participants in audio signals. To address these limitations, recent advances focus on developing…

Recently, reinforcement learning (RL) has been shown to greatly enhance the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs), and RL-based approaches have been progressively applied to visual multimodal tasks. However, the audio…

Automatic speech intelligibility assessment is crucial for monitoring speech disorders and therapy efficacy. However, existing methods are difficult to compare: research is fragmented across private datasets with inconsistent protocols. We…
