OBJECTIVES: Computer-aided pathological voice detection is efficient for initial screening of pathological voice, and has received high academic and clinical attention. This paper proposes an automatic diagnosis method of pathological voice based on ...
In this paper, we have investigated the differences in the voices of Parkinson's disease (PD) and age-matched control (CO) subjects when uttering three phonemes using two complexity measures: fractal dimension (FD) and normalised mutual information (...
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...

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.
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...

Analysis of quantified voice patterns is useful in the detection and assessment of dysphonia and related phonation disorders. In this paper, we first study the linear correlations between 22 voice parameters of fundamental frequency variability, ampl...
Comprehensive evaluation of results obtained using acoustic and contact microphones in screening for laryngeal disorders through analysis of sustained phonation is the main objective of this study. Aiming to obtain a versatile characterization of voi...
Speech and voice have emerged as valuable non-invasive biomarkers for detecting and monitoring a range of medical conditions, from neurodegenerative and respiratory diseases to psychiatric and emotional disorders. Recent advancements in artificial in...
