A Deep Learning Approach for Quantifying Vocal Fold Dynamics During Connected Speech Using Laryngeal High-Speed Videoendoscopy.

Journal of speech, language, and hearing research : JSLHR
PURPOSE: Voice disorders are best assessed by examining vocal fold dynamics in connected speech. This can be achieved using flexible laryngeal high-speed videoendoscopy (HSV), which enables us to study vocal fold mechanics with high temporal details....

The Effect of the MFCC Frame Length in Automatic Voice Pathology Detection.

Journal of voice : official journal of the Voice Foundation
Automatic voice pathology detection is a research topic, which has gained increasing interest recently. Although methods based on deep learning are becoming popular, the classical pipeline systems based on a two-stage architecture consisting of a fea...

Neurogenerative Disease Diagnosis in Cepstral Domain Using MFCC with Deep Learning.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Because underlying cognitive and neuromuscular activities regulate speech signals, biomarkers in the human voice can provide insight into neurological illnesses. Multiple motor and nonmotor aspects of neurologic voice disorders arise from an underlyi...

Machine Learning-based Voice Assessment for the Detection of Positive and Recovered COVID-19 Patients.

Journal of voice : official journal of the Voice Foundation
Many virological tests have been implemented during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic for diagnostic purposes, but they appear unsuitable for screening purposes. Furthermore, current screening strategies are not accurate enough to effe...

Identifying individuals with recent COVID-19 through voice classification using deep learning.

Scientific reports
Recently deep learning has attained a breakthrough in model accuracy for the classification of images due mainly to convolutional neural networks. In the present study, we attempted to investigate the presence of subclinical voice feature alteration ...

A Deep Learning Algorithm for Objective Assessment of Hypernasality in Children With Cleft Palate.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVES: Evaluation of hypernasality requires extensive perceptual training by clinicians and extending this training on a large scale internationally is untenable; this compounds the health disparities that already exist among children with cleft...

Comparative Analysis of CNN and RNN for Voice Pathology Detection.

BioMed research international
Diagnosis on the basis of a computerized acoustic examination may play an incredibly important role in early diagnosis and in monitoring and even improving effective pathological speech diagnostics. Various acoustic metrics test the health of the voi...

Machine learning based identification of relevant parameters for functional voice disorders derived from endoscopic high-speed recordings.

Scientific reports
In voice research and clinical assessment, many objective parameters are in use. However, there is no commonly used set of parameters that reflect certain voice disorders, such as functional dysphonia (FD); i.e. disorders with no visible anatomical c...

Discrimination of "hot potato voice" caused by upper airway obstruction utilizing a support vector machine.

The Laryngoscope
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: "Hot potato voice" (HPV) is a thick, muffled voice caused by pharyngeal or laryngeal diseases characterized by severe upper airway obstruction, including acute epiglottitis and peritonsillitis. To develop a method for determini...
