Music, an integral part of our lives, which is not only a source of entertainment but plays an important role in mental well-being by impacting moods, emotions and other affective states. Music preferences and listening strategies have been…

With the availability of voice-enabled devices such as smart phones, mental health disorders could be detected and treated earlier, particularly post-pandemic. The current methods involve extracting features directly from audio signals. In…

Mental distress like depression and anxiety contribute to the largest proportion of the global burden of diseases. Automated diagnosis systems of such disorders, empowered by recent innovations in Artificial Intelligence, can pave the way…

Speech-based depression detection tools could aid early screening. Here, we propose an interpretable speech foundation model approach to enhance the clinical applicability of such tools. We introduce a speech-level Audio Spectrogram…

Multimodal depression classification has gained immense popularity over the recent years. We develop a multimodal depression classification system using articulatory coordination features extracted from vocal tract variables and text…

Automatic depression detection using speech signals with acoustic and textual modalities is a promising approach for early diagnosis. Depression-related patterns exhibit sparsity in speech: diagnostically relevant features occur in specific…

Depression and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) stand out as the common mental health challenges today. In affective computing, speech signals serve as effective biomarkers for mental disorder assessment. Current research,…

In this paper, a data augmentation method is proposed for depression detection from speech signals. Samples for data augmentation were created by changing the frame-width and the frame-shift parameters during the feature extraction process.…

Depression has been the leading cause of mental-health illness worldwide. Major depressive disorder (MDD), is a common mental health disorder that affects both psychologically as well as physically which could lead to loss of lives. Due to…

Voice disorders affect patients profoundly, and acoustic tools can potentially measure voice function objectively. Nonetheless, existing tools are limited to analysing voices displaying near periodicity, and do not account for inherent…

In speech processing pipelines, improving the quality and intelligibility of real-world recordings is crucial. While supervised regression is the primary method for speech enhancement, audio tokenization is emerging as a promising…

Automatic depression detection from conversational data has gained significant interest in recent years. The DAIC-WOZ dataset, interviews conducted by a human-controlled virtual agent, has been widely used for this task. Recent studies have…

Psychomotor retardation associated with depression has been linked with tangible differences in vowel production. This paper investigates a knowledge-driven machine learning (ML) method that integrates spectrotemporal information of speech…

With the emergence of AI techniques for depression diagnosis, the conflict between high demand and limited supply for depression screening has been significantly alleviated. Among various modal data, audio-based depression diagnosis has…

Predicting whether an individual's depressive symptoms will worsen, remain stable, or improve over the coming weeks can enable earlier and more targeted care, yet prospective within-person trajectory prediction remains largely unaddressed…

Parkinson's disease (PD) presents a growing global challenge, affecting over 10 million individuals, with prevalence expected to double by 2040. Early diagnosis remains difficult due to the late emergence of motor symptoms and limitations…

Depression is a critical concern in global mental health, prompting extensive research into AI-based detection methods. Among various AI technologies, Large Language Models (LLMs) stand out for their versatility in mental healthcare…

We investigate the performance of features that can capture nonlinear recurrence dynamics embedded in the speech signal for the task of Speech Emotion Recognition (SER). Reconstruction of the phase space of each speech frame and the…

Previous studies have demonstrated that emotional features from a single acoustic sentiment label can enhance depression diagnosis accuracy. Additionally, according to the Emotion Context-Insensitivity theory and our pilot study,…

Depression, a common mental disorder, significantly influences individuals and imposes considerable societal impacts. The complexity and heterogeneity of the disorder necessitate prompt and effective detection, which nonetheless, poses a…
