Chat-Bots for People with Parkinson's Disease: Science Fiction or Reality?

Studies in health technology and informatics
People with Parkinson's disease are known to have difficulties in language and communication. This paper proposes the use of an artificial conversational agent, commonly known as a chat-bot that runs on a smart-phone device and performs two-way conve...

Predicting Language Difficulties in Middle Childhood From Early Developmental Milestones: A Comparison of Traditional Regression and Machine Learning Techniques.

Journal of speech, language, and hearing research : JSLHR
PURPOSE: The current study aimed to compare traditional logistic regression models with machine learning algorithms to investigate the predictive ability of (a) communication performance at 3 years old on language outcomes at 10 years old and (b) bro...

Machine learning in the clinical and language characterisation of primary progressive aphasia variants.

Cortex; a journal devoted to the study of the nervous system and behavior
INTRODUCTION: Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a clinical syndrome of neurodegenerative origin with 3 main variants: non-fluent, semantic, and logopenic. However, there is some controversy about the existence of additional subtypes. Our aim was t...

EEG Connectivity Analysis Using Denoising Autoencoders for the Detection of Dyslexia.

International journal of neural systems
The Temporal Sampling Framework (TSF) theorizes that the characteristic phonological difficulties of dyslexia are caused by an atypical oscillatory sampling at one or more temporal rates. The LEEDUCA study conducted a series of Electroencephalography...

A systematic literature review of automatic Alzheimer's disease detection from speech and language.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVE: In recent years numerous studies have achieved promising results in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) detection using automatic language processing. We systematically review these articles to understand the effectiveness of this approach, identify ...

Machine learning-based multimodal prediction of language outcomes in chronic aphasia.

Human brain mapping
Recent studies have combined multiple neuroimaging modalities to gain further understanding of the neurobiological substrates of aphasia. Following this line of work, the current study uses machine learning approaches to predict aphasia severity and ...

Evaluating atypical language in autism using automated language measures.

Scientific reports
Measurement of language atypicalities in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is cumbersome and costly. Better language outcome measures are needed. Using language transcripts, we generated Automated Language Measures (ALMs) and tested their validity. 169 ...

Discourse- and lesion-based aphasia quotient estimation using machine learning.

NeuroImage. Clinical
Discourse is a fundamentally important aspect of communication, and discourse production provides a wealth of information about linguistic ability. Aphasia commonly affects, in multiple ways, the ability to produce discourse. Comprehensive aphasia as...

Early Identification of Language Disorders Using Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning: Challenges and Emerging Approaches.

Journal of speech, language, and hearing research : JSLHR
PURPOSE: Recent advances in artificial intelligence provide opportunities to capture and represent complex features of human language in a more automated manner, offering potential means of improving the efficiency of language assessment. This review...
