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...

Demographic and Symptomatic Features of Voice Disorders and Their Potential Application in Classification Using Machine Learning Algorithms.

Folia phoniatrica et logopaedica : official organ of the International Association of Logopedics and Phoniatrics (IALP)
BACKGROUND: Studies have used questionnaires of dysphonic symptoms to screen voice disorders. This study investigated whether the differential presentation of demographic and symptomatic features can be applied to computerized classification.

Hierarchical Classification and System Combination for Automatically Identifying Physiological and Neuromuscular Laryngeal Pathologies.

Journal of voice : official journal of the Voice Foundation
OBJECTIVES: Speech signal processing techniques have provided several contributions to pathologic voice identification, in which healthy and unhealthy voice samples are evaluated. A less common approach is to identify laryngeal pathologies, for which...

Differentiability of voice disorders through explainable AI.

Scientific reports
The voice can be affected by various types of pathology. The phoniatric medical examination is the acoustic analysis, which evaluates the characteristic parameters extracted from the vocal signal. Computer-assisted decision-making systems can help sp...

A hybrid approach for binary and multi-class classification of voice disorders using a pre-trained model and ensemble classifiers.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
Recent advances in artificial intelligence-based audio and speech processing have increasingly focused on the binary and multi-class classification of voice disorders. Despite progress, achieving high accuracy in multi-class classification remains ch...

Automatic GRBAS Scoring of Pathological Voices using Deep Learning and a Small Set of Labeled Voice Data.

Journal of voice : official journal of the Voice Foundation
OBJECTIVES: Auditory-perceptual evaluation frameworks, such as the grade-roughness-breathiness-asthenia-strain (GRBAS) scale, are the gold standard for the quantitative evaluation of pathological voice quality. However, the evaluation is subjective; ...

Detection of Neurogenic Voice Disorders Using the Fisher Vector Representation of Cepstral Features.

Journal of voice : official journal of the Voice Foundation
Neurogenic voice disorders (NVDs) are caused by damage or malfunction of the central or peripheral nervous system that controls vocal fold movement. In this paper, we investigate the potential of the Fisher vector (FV) encoding in automatic detection...

Developing a smart system for binary classification of disordered voices using machine learning.

American journal of otolaryngology
OBJECTIVES: Voice disorder is characterized by disruptions in voice quality caused by issues in vocal fold vibration during phonation. The study explored the application of machine learning, based on the Random Forest (RF) and Decision Tree (DT) mode...

Pathological voice classification based on multi-domain features and deep hierarchical extreme learning machine.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
The intelligent data-driven screening of pathological voice signals is a non-invasive and real-time tool for computer-aided diagnosis that has attracted increasing attention from researchers and clinicians. In this paper, the authors propose multi-do...
