- Isolated vocal tremor: a case seriesObjective: To describe the difficulties and limited treatment options for isolated vocal tremor. Background: Isolated vocal tremor is a unique phenotype of isolated focal tremor…
- Automatic Detection of Parkinson’s Disease by Voice AnalysisObjective: This study aimed to address this gap by investigating whether convolutional neural networks (CNN) can accurately distinguish PD patients from non-PD individuals. Background: Vocal…
- Deep Learning Approaches for Recognition of Parkinson’s Disease Patients through Handwriting, Audio and Video AnalysisObjective: The aim of this study was to build PD diagnostic models based on deep learning approaches using technologies including handwriting identification, automatic speech recognition…
- Association of creaky voice with motor severity in Parkinson’s disease using an automated algorithm.Objective: We characterized creaky voice in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and evaluated the association of this acoustic phenomenon with motor and cognitive status. Background: Creaky voice (“vocal fry”)…
- Feasibility of telephonic voice samples to remotely monitor people with Parkinson’s disease residing in medically underserved rural regionsObjective: To explore the feasibility of collecting voice samples using digital voicemail in People with Parkinson’s disease (PwPD). Background: For many PwPD, the increased adoption…
- Unravelling Voice Tremor In Movement Disorders: A Machine Learning StudyObjective: The aim of this study is to achieve a direct and objective discrimination between voice samples recoded from patients with essential tremor and dysphonia…
- Effects of Vibrotactile Feedback and Lee Silverman Voice Treatment on Vocal Intensity in Individuals with Parkinson’s Disease: A Preliminary StudyObjective: To compare vocal intensity between locations (home versus clinic), treatment groups [Vibrotactile feedback (VF) only versus LSVT LOUD® and VF], and VF status (on…
- Say “AH~”: Vocal Analysis in Parkinson’s Disease and Essential TremorObjective: We aimed to investigate useful vocal parameters in differentiating PD and ET, using a machine-learning algorithm. Background: Correlation between Parkinson's disease (PD) and essential tremor (ET)…
- Alignment of objective markers of speech with listener based judgements and disease severity in Friedreich ataxiaObjective: To identify a subset of acoustic markers of speech that objectively describe listener perceptions, disease severity and speech related quality of life in Friedreich…
- Auditory-Perceptual Voice and Speech Evaluation in ATP1A3-positive PatientsObjective: To characterize speech and voice dysfunctions in ATP1A3 mutation positive individuals compared to concurrent mutation negative family controls. Background: Bulbar symptoms are frequent in…
