ICASSP 2023accepted

Early detection of Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD) is critical in treating the progression of the disease. Previous studies have shown that ADRD can be detected and classified using machine learning models trained on samples of spontaneous speech. We propose using Voice-Assistant Sy…

Towards Interpretability of Speech Pause in Dementia Detection Using Adversarial Learning

Youxiang Zhu, Bang Tran, Xiaohui Liang, John A. Batsis, Robert M. Roth

ICASSP 2022accepted

Speech pause is an effective biomarker in dementia detection. Recent deep learning models have exploited speech pauses to achieve highly accurate dementia detection, but have not exploited the interpretability of speech pauses, i.e., what and how positions and lengths of speech pauses affect the res…
