Ultrasensitive Anti-Interference Voice Recognition by Bio-Inspired Skin-Attachable Self-Cleaning Acoustic Sensors.

ACS nano
Human voice recognition systems (VRSs) are a prerequisite for voice-controlled human-machine interfaces (HMIs). In order to avoid interference from unexpected background noises, skin-attachable VRSs are proposed to directly detect physiological mecha...

Voice-Controlled Intelligent Personal Assistants to Support Aging in Place.

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Many older adults wish to age in place, and voice-controlled intelligent personal assistants (VIPAs; eg, Amazon Echo and Google Home) potentially could support unmet home needs. No prior studies have researched the real-world u...

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...

A Diadochokinesis-based expert system considering articulatory features of plosive consonants for early detection of Parkinson's disease.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: A new expert system is proposed to discriminate healthy people from people with Parkinson's Disease (PD) in early stages by using Diadochokinesis tests.

Prediction of menarcheal status of girls using voice features.

Computers in biology and medicine
A method for evaluating the menarcheal status of girls on the basis of their voice features is presented in the paper. The registration procedure consists of voice recording and measuring 20 anthropological features. The input feature vector is a com...

Dysphonic Voice Pattern Analysis of Patients in Parkinson's Disease Using Minimum Interclass Probability Risk Feature Selection and Bagging Ensemble Learning Methods.
