Automatic detection of voice pathologies enables non-invasive, low cost and objective assessments of the presence of disorders, as well as accelerating and improving the process of diagnosis and clinical treatment given to patients. In this work, a vector made up of 28 acoustic parameters is evaluated using principal component analysis (PCA), kernel principal component analysis (kPCA) and an auto-associative neural network (NLPCA) in four kinds of pathology detection (hyperfunctional dysphonia, functional dysphonia, laryngitis, vocal cord paralysis) using the a, i and u vowels, spoken at a high, low and normal pitch. The results indicate that the kPCA and NLPCA methods can be considered a step towards pathology detection of the vocal folds. The results show that such an approach provides acceptable results for this purpose, with the best efficiency levels of around 100%. The study brings the most commonly used approaches to speech signal processing together and leads to a comparison of the machine learning methods determining the health status of the patient.
This work presents a method for automatical and objective classification of patients with healthy and pathological vocal fold vibration impairments using High-Speed Videoendoscopy of the larynx. We used an image segmentation and extraction of a novel set of numerical parameters describing the spatio-temporal dynamics of vocal folds to classification according to the normal and pathological cases and achieved 73,3% cross-validation classification accuracy. This approach is promising to develop an automatic diagnosis tool of voice disorders.
