Fully automatic segmentation of glottis and vocal folds in endoscopic laryngeal high-speed videos using a deep Convolutional LSTM Network.

PloS one
The objective investigation of the dynamic properties of vocal fold vibrations demands the recording and further quantitative analysis of laryngeal high-speed video (HSV). Quantification of the vocal fold vibration patterns requires as a first step t...

Deep Learning-Based Delineation of Head and Neck Organs at Risk: Geometric and Dosimetric Evaluation.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Organ-at-risk (OAR) delineation is a key step in treatment planning but can be time consuming, resource intensive, subject to variability, and dependent on anatomical knowledge. We studied deep learning (DL) for automated delineation of mult...

A dataset of laryngeal endoscopic images with comparative study on convolution neural network-based semantic segmentation.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Automated segmentation of anatomical structures in medical image analysis is a prerequisite for autonomous diagnosis as well as various computer- and robot-aided interventions. Recent methods based on deep convolutional neural networks (CNN)...

A Survey on Machine Learning Approaches for Automatic Detection of Voice Disorders.

Journal of voice : official journal of the Voice Foundation
The human voice production system is an intricate biological device capable of modulating pitch and loudness. Inherent internal and/or external factors often damage the vocal folds and result in some change of voice. The consequences are reflected in...

Quantification and Analysis of Laryngeal Closure From Endoscopic Videos.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: At present, there are no objective techniques to quantify and describe laryngeal obstruction, and the reproducibility of subjective manual quantification methods is insufficient, resulting in diagnostic inaccuracy and a poor signal-to-nois...

Encoding of Articulatory Kinematic Trajectories in Human Speech Sensorimotor Cortex.

Neuron
When speaking, we dynamically coordinate movements of our jaw, tongue, lips, and larynx. To investigate the neural mechanisms underlying articulation, we used direct cortical recordings from human sensorimotor cortex while participants spoke natural ...

Using Machine Learning and a Combination of Respiratory Flow, Laryngeal Motion, and Swallowing Sounds to Classify Safe and Unsafe Swallowing.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this research was to develop a swallowing assessment method to help prevent aspiration pneumonia. The method uses simple sensors to monitor swallowing function during an individual's daily life.
