Detection of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) via Acoustic Analysis

2018-08-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> ALS is a fatal neurodegenerative disease with no cure. Experts typically measure disease progression via the ALSFRS-R score, which includes measurements of various abilities known to decline. We propose instead the use of speech analysis as a proxy for ALS progression. This technique enables 1) frequent non-invasive, inexpensive, longitudinal analysis, 2) analysis of data recorded in the wild, a...
