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 ...

Negative content in auditory verbal hallucinations: a natural language processing approach.

Cognitive neuropsychiatry
INTRODUCTION: Negative content of auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH) is a strong predictor of distress and impairment. This paper quantifies emotional voice-content in order to explore both subjective (i.e. perceived) and objectively (i.e. linguist...

Artificial Intelligence Can Improve Patient Management at the Time of a Pandemic: The Role of Voice Technology.

Journal of medical Internet research
Artificial intelligence-driven voice technology deployed on mobile phones and smart speakers has the potential to improve patient management and organizational workflow. Voice chatbots have been already implemented in health care-leveraging innovativ...

A Comparison of an Artificial Intelligence Tool to Fundamental Frequency as an Outcome Measure in People Seeking a More Feminine Voice.

The Laryngoscope
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: An artificial intelligence (AI) tool was developed using audio clips of cis-male and cis-female voices based on spectral analysis to assess %probability of a voice being perceived as female (%Prob♀). This program was validated ...

Toward an Automatic Quality Assessment of Voice-Based Telemedicine Consultations: A Deep Learning Approach.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Maintaining a high quality of conversation between doctors and patients is essential in telehealth services, where efficient and competent communication is important to promote patient health. Assessing the quality of medical conversations is often h...

Voice-Controlled Intelligent Personal Assistants in Health Care: International Delphi Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Voice-controlled intelligent personal assistants (VIPAs), such as Amazon Echo and Google Home, involve artificial intelligence-powered algorithms designed to simulate humans. Their hands-free interface and growing capabilities have a wide...

Biosignal Sensors and Deep Learning-Based Speech Recognition: A Review.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Voice is one of the essential mechanisms for communicating and expressing one's intentions as a human being. There are several causes of voice inability, including disease, accident, vocal abuse, medical surgery, ageing, and environmental pollution, ...

Finding, visualizing, and quantifying latent structure across diverse animal vocal repertoires.

PLoS computational biology
Animals produce vocalizations that range in complexity from a single repeated call to hundreds of unique vocal elements patterned in sequences unfolding over hours. Characterizing complex vocalizations can require considerable effort and a deep intui...

How Social Cues in Virtual Assistants Influence Concerns and Persuasion: The Role of Voice and a Human Name.

Cyberpsychology, behavior and social networking
The aim of this study was to test how two important types of social cues used by virtual assistants today can affect consumer concerns and persuasion. These two cues are modality (voice-based via smart speaker, voice-based via a smartphone, or text-b...

Machine-Learning Analysis of Voice Samples Recorded through Smartphones: The Combined Effect of Ageing and Gender.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
BACKGROUND: Experimental studies using qualitative or quantitative analysis have demonstrated that the human voice progressively worsens with ageing. These studies, however, have mostly focused on specific voice features without examining their dynam...
