Abstract
AbstractParkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurological disease that has been reported to have affected most people worldwide. Recent research pointed out that about 90% of PD patients possess voice disorders. Motivated by this fact, many researchers proposed methods based on multiple types of speech data for PD prediction. However, these methods either face the problem of low rate of accuracy or lack generalization. To develop an approach that will be free of these issues, in this paper we propose a novel ensemble approach. These paper contributions are two folds. First, investigating feature selection integration with deep neural network (DNN) and validating its effectiveness by comparing its performance with conventional DNN and other similar integrated systems. Second, development of a novel ensemble model namely EOFSC (Ensemble model with Optimal Features and Sample Dependant Base Classifiers) that exploits the findings of recently published studies. Recent research pointed out that for different types of voice data, different optimal models are obtained which are sensitive to different types of samples and subsets of features. In this paper, we further consolidate the findings by utilizing the proposed integrated system and propose the development of EOFSC. For multiple types of vowel phonations, multiple base classifiers are obtained which are sensitive to different subsets of features. These features and sample-dependent base classifiers are integrated, and the proposed EOFSC model is constructed. To evaluate the final prediction of the EOFSC model, the majority voting methodology is adopted. Experimental results point out that feature selection integration with neural networks improves the performance of conventional neural networks. Additionally, feature selection integration with DNN outperforms feature selection integration with conventional machine learning models. Finally, the newly developed ensemble model is observed to improve PD detection accuracy by 6.5%.

Things to Consider When Automatically Detecting Parkinson’s Disease Using the Phonation of Sustained Vowels: Analysis of Methodological Issues. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022.

Abstract
Diagnosing Parkinson’s Disease (PD) necessitates monitoring symptom progression. Unfortunately, diagnostic confirmation often occurs years after disease onset. A more sensitive and objective approach is paramount to the expedient diagnosis and treatment of persons with PD (PwPDs). Recent studies have shown that we can train accurate models to detect signs of PD from audio recordings of confirmed PwPDs. However, disparities exist between studies and may be caused, in part, by differences in employed corpora or methodologies. Our hypothesis is that unaccounted covariates in methodology, experimental design, and data preparation resulted in overly optimistic results in studies of PD automatic detection employing sustained vowels. These issues include record-wise fold creation rather than subject-wise; an imbalance of age between the PwPD and control classes; using too small of a corpus compared to the sizes of feature vectors; performing cross-validation without including development data; and the absence of cross-corpora testing to confirm results. In this paper, we evaluate the influence of these methodological issues in the automatic detection of PD employing sustained vowels. We perform several experiments isolating each issue to measure its influence employing three different corpora. Moreover, we analyze if the perceived dysphonia of the speakers could be causing differences in results between the corpora. Results suggest that each independent methodological issue analyzed has an effect on classification accuracy. Consequently, we recommend a list of methodological steps to be considered in future experiments to avoid overoptimistic or misleading results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Speech disorders and freezing of gait (FOG) in Parkinson's disease (PD) may have some common pathological mechanisms. The purpose of this study was to compare the acoustic parameters of PD patients with dopamine-responsive FOG (PD-FOG) and without FOG (PD-nFOG) during "ON state" and explore the ability of "ON state" voice features in distinguishing PD-FOG from PD-nFOG. METHODS A total of 120 subjects, including 40 PD patients with dopamine-responsive FOG, 40 PD-nFOG, and 40 healthy controls (HCs) were recruited. All subjects underwent neuropsychological tests. Speech samples were recorded through the sustained vowel pronunciation tasks during the "ON state" and then analyzed by the Praat software. A set of 27 voice features was extracted from each sample for comparison. Support vector machine (SVM) was used to build mathematical models to classify PD-FOG and PD-nFOG. RESULTS Compared with PD-nFOG, the jitter, the standard deviation of fundamental frequency (F0SD), the standard deviation of pulse period (pulse period SD) and the noise-homophonic-ratio (NHR) were increased, and the maximum phonation time (MPT) was decreased in PD-FOG. The above voice features were correlated with the freezing of gait questionnaire (FOGQ). The average accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity of SVM models based on 27 voice features for classifying PD-FOG and PD-nFOG were 73.57%, 75.71%, and 71.43%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS PD-FOG have more severe voice impairment than PD-nFOG during "ON state".

A Simple and Effective Approach Based on a Multi-Level Feature Selection for Automated Parkinson's Disease Detection. J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12010055. [PMID: 35055370 PMCID: PMC8781034 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12010055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2021] [Revised: 12/27/2021] [Accepted: 12/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/07/2022] Open
Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD), which is a slowly progressing neurodegenerative disorder, negatively affects people’s daily lives. Early diagnosis is of great importance to minimize the effects of PD. One of the most important symptoms in the early diagnosis of PD disease is the monotony and distortion of speech. Artificial intelligence-based approaches can help specialists and physicians to automatically detect these disorders. In this study, a new and powerful approach based on multi-level feature selection was proposed to detect PD from features containing voice recordings of already-diagnosed cases. At the first level, feature selection was performed with the Chi-square and L1-Norm SVM algorithms (CLS). Then, the features that were extracted from these algorithms were combined to increase the representation power of the samples. At the last level, those samples that were highly distinctive from the combined feature set were selected with feature importance weights using the ReliefF algorithm. In the classification stage, popular classifiers such as KNN, SVM, and DT were used for machine learning, and the best performance was achieved with the KNN classifier. Moreover, the hyperparameters of the KNN classifier were selected with the Bayesian optimization algorithm, and the performance of the proposed approach was further improved. The proposed approach was evaluated using a 10-fold cross-validation technique on a dataset containing PD and normal classes, and a classification accuracy of 95.4% was achieved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological disorder caused by decreasing dopamine in the brain. Speech is one of the first functions that are disrupted. Accordingly, speech features are a promising indicator in PD diagnosis for telemedicine applications. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of Parkinson's disease on a minimal set of Jitter and Shimmer voice indicators and studying the difference between male and female speech features in noisy/noiseless environments. MATERIALS AND METHODS Our data includes 47 samples from nursing homes and neurology clinics, with 23 patients and 24 healthy individuals. The optimal feature for each category is studied separately for the men's and women's samples. The focus here is on the phonation in which the vowel/a/is expressed by the participants. The main features, including Jitter and Shimmer perturbations, are extracted. To find an optimal pair under both noisy and noiseless circumstance, we use the Relief feature selection strategy. RESULTS This research shows that the Jitter feature for men and women with Parkinson's is 21 and 33.4, respectively. While the Shimmer feature is 0.1 and 0.06. In addition, by using these two features alone, we reach a correct diagnosis rate of 79% and 81% for noisy and noiseless states, respectively. CONCLUSION The PD effects on the speech features can be accurately identified. Evaluating the extracted features suggests that the absolute value of the selected feature in men with PD is higher than for healthy ones. Whereas, in the case of women, this is the opposite.

Abstract
Parkinson's and Alzheimer's Disease are believed to be most prevalent and common in older people. Several data-mining approaches are employed on the neuro-degenerative data in predicting the disease. A novel method has been built and developed to diagnose Alzheimer's (AD) and Parkinson's (PD) in early stages, which includes image acquisition, pre-processing, feature extraction and selection, followed by classification. The challenge lies in selecting the optimal feature subset for classification. In this work, the Sunflower Optimisation Algorithm (SFO) is employed to select the optimal feature set, which is then fed to the Kernel Extreme Learning Machine (KELM) for classification. The method is tested on the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) and local dataset for AD, the University of California, Irvine (UCI) machine learning repository and the Istanbul dataset for PD. Experimental outcomes have demonstrated a high accuracy level in both AD and PD diagnosis. For AD diagnosis, the highest classification rate is obtained for the AD versus NC classification using the ADNI dataset (99.32%) and local dataset (98.65%). For PD diagnosis, the highest accuracy of 99.52% and 99.45% is achieved on the UCI and Istanbul datasets, respectively. To show the robustness of the method, the method is compared with other similar methods of feature selection and classification with 10-fold cross-validation (CV) and with unseen data. The method proposed has an excellent prospect, bringing greater convenience to clinicians in making a better solid decision in clinical diagnosis of neuro-degenerative diseases.

Abstract
As a neurodegenerative disease, Parkinson's disease (PD) is hard to identify at the early stage, while using speech data to build a machine learning diagnosis model has proved effective in its early diagnosis. However, speech data show high degrees of redundancy, repetition, and unnecessary noise, which influence the accuracy of diagnosis results. Although feature reduction (FR) could alleviate this issue, the traditional FR is one-sided (traditional feature extraction could construct high-quality features without feature preference, while traditional feature selection could achieve feature preference but could not construct high-quality features). To address this issue, the Hierarchical Boosting Dual-Stage Feature Reduction Ensemble Model (HBD-SFREM) is proposed in this paper. The major contributions of HBD-SFREM are as follows: (1) The instance space of the deep hierarchy is built by an iterative deep extraction mechanism. (2) The manifold features extraction method embeds the nearest neighbor feature preference method to form the dual-stage feature reduction pair. (3) The dual-stage feature reduction pair is iteratively performed by the AdaBoost mechanism to obtain instances features with higher quality, thus achieving a substantial improvement in model recognition accuracy. (4) The deep hierarchy instance space is integrated into the original instance space to improve the generalization of the algorithm. Three PD speech datasets and a self-collected dataset are used to test HBD-SFREM in this paper. Compared with other FR algorithms and deep learning algorithms, the accuracy of HBD-SFREM in PD speech recognition is improved significantly and would not be affected by a small sample dataset. Thus, HBD-SFREM could give a reference for other related studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Automatic voice condition analysis systems to detect Parkinson's disease (PD) are generally based on speech data recorded under acoustically controlled conditions and professional supervision. The performance of these approaches in a free-living scenario is unknown. The aim of this research is to investigate the impact of uncontrolled conditions (realistic acoustic environment and lack of supervision) on the performance of automatic PD detection systems based on speech. METHODS A mobile-assisted voice condition analysis system is proposed to aid in the detection of PD using speech. The system is based on a server-client architecture. In the server, feature extraction and machine learning algorithms are designed and implemented to discriminate subjects with PD from healthy ones. The Android app allows patients to submit phonations and physicians to check the complete record of every patient. Six different machine learning classifiers are applied to compare their performance on two different speech databases. One of them is an in-house database (UEX database), collected under professional supervision by using the same Android-based smartphone in the same room, whereas the other one is an age, sex and health-status balanced subset of mPower study for PD, which provides real-world data. By applying identical methodology, single-database experiments have been performed on each database, and also cross-database tests. Cross-validation has been applied to assess generalization performance and hypothesis tests have been used to report statistically significant differences. RESULTS In the single-database experiments, a best accuracy rate of 0.92 (AUC = 0.98) has been obtained on UEX database, while a considerably lower best accuracy rate of 0.71 (AUC = 0.76) has been achieved using the mPower-based database. The cross-database tests provided very degraded accuracy metrics. CONCLUSION The results clearly show the potential of the proposed system as an aid for general practitioners to conduct triage or an additional tool for neurologists to perform diagnosis. However, due to the performance degradation observed using data from mPower study, semi-controlled conditions are encouraged, i.e., voices recorded at home by the patients themselves following a strict recording protocol and control of the information about patients by the medical doctor at charge.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurological disease having no specific medical test for its diagnosis. In this study, we consider PD detection based on multimodal voice data that was collected through two channels, i.e., Smart Phone (SP) and Acoustic Cardioid (AC). Four types of data modalities were collected through each channel, namely sustained phonation (P), speech (S), voiced (V), and unvoiced (U) modality. The contributions of this paper are twofold. First, it explores optimal data modality and features having better information about PD. Second, it proposes a MultiModal Data-Driven Ensemble (MMDD-Ensemble) approach for PD detection. The MMDD-Ensemble has two levels. At the first level, different base classifiers are developed that are driven by multimodal voice data. At the second level, the predictions of the base classifiers are fused using blending and voting methods. In order to validate the robustness of the propose method, six evaluation measures, namely accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC), and area under the curve (AUC), are adopted. The proposed method outperformed the best results produced by optimal unimodal framework from both the key evaluation aspects, i.e., accuracy and AUC. Furthermore, the proposed method also outperformed other state-of-the-art ensemble models. Experimental results show that the proposed multimodal approach yields 96% accuracy, 100% sensitivity, 88.88% specificity, 0.914 of MCC, and 0.986 of AUC. These results are promising compared to the recently reported results for PD detection based on multimodal voice data.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
This paper focuses on developing a regularization-based feature selection approach to select the most effective attributes from the Parkinson’s speech dataset. Parkinson’s disease is a medical condition that progresses as the dopamine-producing nerve cells are affected. Early diagnosis often reduces the effect on the individuals, minimizes the advancement over time. In recent times, intelligent computational models are used in many complex cases to diagnose a clinical condition with high precision. These models are intended to find meaningful representation from the data to diagnose the disease. Machine learning acts as a tool, gears up the model learning process through a mathematical baseline. But, not in all cases, machine learning will be demanded to perform optimally. It comes with a few constraints, mainly the representation of the data. The learning models expect a clean, noise-free input, which in-turns produces better discriminative patterns over different categories of classes.
Methods
The proposed model identified five candidate features as predictors. This feature subset is trained with different varieties of supervised classifiers to trace out the best-performing model.
Results
The results are validated through accuracy, precision, recall, and receiver’s operational characteristic curves. The proposed regularization- based feature selection model outperformed the benchmark algorithms by attaining 100% accuracy on most of the classifiers, other than linear discriminant analysis (99.90%) and naïve Bayes (99.51%).
Conclusions
This paper exhibits the need for intelligent models to analyze complex data patterns to assist medical practitioners in better disease diagnosis. The results exhibit that the regularization methods find the best features based on their importance score, which improved the model performance over other feature selection methods.

Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is globally the most common neurodegenerative movement disorder. It is characterized by a loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra of the brain. However, current methods to diagnose PD on the basis of clinical features of Parkinsonism may lead to misdiagnoses. Hence, noninvasive methods such as electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings of PD patients can be an alternative biomarker. In this study, a deep-learning model is proposed for automated PD diagnosis. EEG recordings of 16 healthy controls and 15 PD patients were used for analysis. Using Gabor transform, EEG recordings were converted into spectrograms, which were used to train the proposed two-dimensional convolutional neural network (2D-CNN) model. As a result, the proposed model achieved high classification accuracy of 99.46% (±0.73) for 3-class classification (healthy controls, and PD patients with and without medication) using tenfold cross-validation. This indicates the potential of proposed model to simultaneously automatically detect PD patients and their medication status. The proposed model is ready to be validated with a larger database before implementation as a computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) tool for clinical-decision support.

Abstract
AbstractFeature ranking has been widely adopted in machine learning applications such as high-throughput biology and social sciences. The approaches of the popular Relief family of algorithms assign importances to features by iteratively accounting for nearest relevant and irrelevant instances. Despite their high utility, these algorithms can be computationally expensive and not-well suited for high-dimensional sparse input spaces. In contrast, recent embedding-based methods learn compact, low-dimensional representations, potentially facilitating down-stream learning capabilities of conventional learners. This paper explores how the Relief branch of algorithms can be adapted to benefit from (Riemannian) manifold-based embeddings of instance and target spaces, where a given embedding’s dimensionality is intrinsic to the dimensionality of the considered data set. The developed ReliefE algorithm is faster and can result in better feature rankings, as shown by our evaluation on 20 real-life data sets for multi-class and multi-label classification tasks. The utility of ReliefE for high-dimensional data sets is ensured by its implementation that utilizes sparse matrix algebraic operations. Finally, the relation of ReliefE to other ranking algorithms is studied via the Fuzzy Jaccard Index.

Abstract
As a neurodegenerative disorder, Parkinson’s disease (PD) affects the nerve cells of the human brain. Early detection and treatment can help to relieve the symptoms of PD. Recent PD studies have extracted the features from vocal disorders as a harbinger for PD detection, as patients face vocal changes and impairments at the early stages of PD. In this study, two hybrid models based on a Support Vector Machine (SVM) integrating with a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and a Sparse Autoencoder (SAE) are proposed to detect PD patients based on their vocal features. The first model extracted and reduced the principal components of vocal features based on the explained variance of each feature using PCA. For the first time, the second model used a novel Deep Neural Network (DNN) of an SAE, consisting of multiple hidden layers with L1 regularization to compress the vocal features into lower-dimensional latent space. In both models, reduced features were fed into the SVM as inputs, which performed classification by learning hyperplanes, along with projecting the data into a higher dimension. An F1-score, a Mathews Correlation Coefficient (MCC), and a Precision-Recall curve were used, along with accuracy to evaluate the proposed models due to highly imbalanced data. With its highest accuracy of 0.935, F1-score of 0.951, and MCC value of 0.788, the probing results show that the proposed model of the SAE-SVM surpassed not only the former model of the PCA-SVM and other standard models including Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and Random Forest (RF), but also surpassed two recent studies using the same dataset. Oversampling and balancing the dataset with SMOTE boosted the performance of the models.

Abstract
Diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) is commonly based on medical observations and assessment of clinical signs, including the characterization of a variety of motor symptoms. However, traditional diagnostic approaches may suffer from subjectivity as they rely on the evaluation of movements that are sometimes subtle to human eyes and therefore difficult to classify, leading to possible misclassification. In the meantime, early non-motor symptoms of PD may be mild and can be caused by many other conditions. Therefore, these symptoms are often overlooked, making diagnosis of PD at an early stage challenging. To address these difficulties and to refine the diagnosis and assessment procedures of PD, machine learning methods have been implemented for the classification of PD and healthy controls or patients with similar clinical presentations (e.g., movement disorders or other Parkinsonian syndromes). To provide a comprehensive overview of data modalities and machine learning methods that have been used in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of PD, in this study, we conducted a literature review of studies published until February 14, 2020, using the PubMed and IEEE Xplore databases. A total of 209 studies were included, extracted for relevant information and presented in this review, with an investigation of their aims, sources of data, types of data, machine learning methods and associated outcomes. These studies demonstrate a high potential for adaptation of machine learning methods and novel biomarkers in clinical decision making, leading to increasingly systematic, informed diagnosis of PD.

Abstract
Cost-sensitive learning methods guaranteeing privacy are becoming crucial nowadays in many applications where increasing use of sensitive personal information is observed. However, there has no optimal learning scheme developed in the literature to learn cost-sensitive classifiers under constraint of enforcing differential privacy. Our approach is to first develop a unified framework for existing cost-sensitive learning methods by incorporating the weight constant and weight functions into the classical regularized empirical risk minimization framework. Then, we propose two privacy-preserving algorithms with output perturbation and objective perturbation methods, respectively, to be integrated with the cost-sensitive learning framework. We showcase how this general framework can be used analytically by deriving the privacy-preserving cost-sensitive extensions of logistic regression and support vector machine. Experimental evidence on both synthetic and real data sets verifies that the proposed algorithms can reduce the misclassification cost effectively while satisfying the privacy requirement. A theoretical investigation is also conducted, revealing a very interesting analytic relation, i.e., that the choice of the weight constant and weight functions does not only influence the Fisher-consistent property (population minimizer of expected risk with a specific loss function leads to the Bayes optimal decision rule) but also interacts with privacy-preserving levels to affect the performance of classifiers significantly.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases have shown an increasing incidence in the older population in recent years. A significant amount of research has been conducted to characterize these diseases. Computational methods, and particularly machine learning techniques, are now very useful tools in helping and improving the diagnosis as well as the disease monitoring process. In this paper, we provide an in-depth review on existing computational approaches used in the whole neurodegenerative spectrum, namely for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's Diseases, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, and Multiple System Atrophy. We propose a taxonomy of the specific clinical features, and of the existing computational methods. We provide a detailed analysis of the various modalities and decision systems employed for each disease. We identify and present the sleep disorders which are present in various diseases and which represent an important asset for onset detection. We overview the existing data set resources and evaluation metrics. Finally, we identify current remaining open challenges and discuss future perspectives.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a slow and insidiously progressive neurological brain disorder. The development of expert systems capable of automatically and highly accurately diagnosing early stages of PD based on speech signals would provide an important contribution to the health sector. For this purpose, the Information Gain Algorithm-based K-Nearest Neighbors (IGKNN) model was developed. This approach was applied to the feature data sets formed using the Tunable Q-factor Wavelet Transform (TQWT) method. First, 12 sub-feature data sets forming the TQWT feature group were analyzed separately after which the one with the best performance was selected, and the IGKNN model was applied to this sub-feature data set. Finally, it was observed that the performance results provided with the IGKNN system for this sub-feature data set were better than those for the complete set of data. According to the results, values of receiver operating characteristic and precision-recall curves exceeded 0.95, and a classification accuracy of almost 98% was obtained with the 22 features selected from this sub-group. In addition, the kappa coefficient was 0.933 and showed a perfect agreement between actual and predicted values. The performance of the IGKNN system was also compared with results from other studies in the literature in which the same data were used, and the approach proposed in this study far outperformed any approaches reported in the literature. Also, as in this IGKNN approach, an expert system that can diagnose PD and achieve maximum performance with fewer features from the audio signals has not been previously encountered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parkinson's disease (PD) is a multi-symptom neurodegenerative disease generally managed with medications, of which levodopa is the most effective. Determining the dosage of levodopa requires regular meetings where motor function can be observed. Speech impairment is an early symptom in PD and has been proposed for early detection and monitoring of the disease. However, findings from previous research on the effect of levodopa on speech have not shown a consistent picture. METHOD This study has investigated the effect of medication on PD patients for three sustained phonemes; /a/, /o/, and /m/, which were recorded from 24 PD patients during medication off and on stages, and from 22 healthy participants. The differences were statistically investigated, and the features were classified using Support Vector Machine (SVM). RESULTS The results show that medication has a significant effect on the change of time and amplitude perturbation (jitter and shimmer) and harmonics of /m/, which was the most sensitive individual phoneme to the levodopa response. /m/ and /o/ performed at a comparable level in discriminating PD-off from control recordings. However, SVM classifications based on the combined use of the three phonemes /a/, /o/, and /m/ showed the best classifications, both for medication effect and for separating PD from control voice. The SVM classification for PD-off versus PD-on achieved an AUC of 0.81. CONCLUSION Studies of phonation by computerized voice analysis in PD should employ recordings of multiple phonemes. Our findings are potentially relevant in research to identify early parkinsonian dysarthria, and to tele-monitoring of the levodopa response in patients with established PD.

Abstract
Aim The present work proposes the study of the neuromotor activity of the masseter-jaw-tongue articulation during diadochokinetic exercising to establish functional statistical relationships between surface Electromyography (sEMG), 3D Accelerometry (3DAcc), and acoustic features extracted from the speech signal, with the aim of characterizing Hypokinetic Dysarthria (HD). A database of multi-trait signals of recordings from an age-matched control and PD participants are used in the experimental study. Hypothesis: The main assumption is that information between sEMG and 3D acceleration, and acoustic features may be quantified using linear regression methods. Methods Recordings from a cohort of eight age-matched control participants (4 males, 4 females) and eight PD participants (4 males, 4 females) were collected during the utterance of a diadochokinetic exercise (the fast repetition of diphthong [aI]). The dynamic and acoustic absolute kinematic velocities produced during the exercises were estimated by acoustic filter inversion and numerical integration and differentiation of the speech signal. The amplitude distributions of the absolute kinematic and acoustic velocities (AKV and AFV) are estimated to allow comparisons in terms of Mutual Information. Results The regression results show the relationships between sEMG and dynamic and acoustic estimates. The projection methodology may help in understanding the basic neuromotor muscle activity regarding neurodegenerative speech in remote monitoring neuromotor and neurocognitive diseases using speech as the vehicular tool, and in the study of other speech-related disorders. The study also showed strong and significant cross-correlations between articulation kinematics, both for the control and the PD cohorts. The absolute kinematic variables presents an observable difference for the PD participants compared to the control group. Conclusion Kinematic distributions derived from acoustic analysis may be useful biomarkers toward characterizing HD in neuromotor disorders providing new insights into PD.

Abstract
Many articles have used voice analysis to detect Parkinson's disease (PD), but few have focused on the early stages of the disease and the gender effect. In this article, we have adapted the latest speaker recognition system, called x-vectors, in order to detect PD at an early stage using voice analysis. X-vectors are embeddings extracted from Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), which provide robust speaker representations and improve speaker recognition when large amounts of training data are used. Our goal was to assess whether, in the context of early PD detection, this technique would outperform the more standard classifier MFCC-GMM (Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients—Gaussian Mixture Model) and, if so, under which conditions. We recorded 221 French speakers (recently diagnosed PD subjects and healthy controls) with a high-quality microphone and via the telephone network. Men and women were analyzed separately in order to have more precise models and to assess a possible gender effect. Several experimental and methodological aspects were tested in order to analyze their impacts on classification performance. We assessed the impact of the audio segment durations, data augmentation, type of dataset used for the neural network training, kind of speech tasks, and back-end analyses. X-vectors technique provided better classification performances than MFCC-GMM for the text-independent tasks, and seemed to be particularly suited for the early detection of PD in women (7–15% improvement). This result was observed for both recording types (high-quality microphone and telephone).

Abstract
Speech diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease (PD) as a non-invasive and simple diagnosis method is particularly worth exploring. However, the number of samples of speech-based PD is relatively small, and there exist discrepancies in the distribution between subjects. In order to solve the two problems, a novel unsupervised two-step sparse transfer learning is proposed in this paper to tackle with PD speech diagnosis. In the first step, convolution sparse coding with the coordinate selection of samples and features is designed to learn speech structure from the source domain to replenish sample information of the target domain. In the second step, joint local structure distribution alignment is designed to maintain the neighbor relationship between the respective samples of the training set and test set, and reduce the distribution difference between the two domains at the same time. Two representative public PD speech datasets and one real-world PD speech dataset were exploited to verify the proposed method on PD speech diagnosis. Experimental results demonstrate that each step of the proposed method has a positive effect on the PD speech classification results, and it also delivers superior performance over the existing relative methods.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) can gradually affect people's lives thus attracting tremendous attention. Early PD detection and treatment can help control the disease progress, relief from the symptoms and improve the patients' life quality. However, the current practice of PD diagnosis is conducted in a clinical setup and administrated by a PD specialist due to the early signs of PD are not noticeable in daily life. According to the report of CDC/NIH, the diagnosed time of PD ranges from 2-10 years after onset. Therefore, a more accessible PD diagnosis approach is urgently demanded. In recent years, mobile health (for short mHealth) technology has been intensively investigated for preventive medicine, particularly in chronic disease management. Notably, many types of research have explored the possibility of using mobile and wearable personal devices to detect the symptom of PD and shown promising results. It provides opportunities for transforming early PD detection from clinical to daily life. This survey paper attempts to conduct a comprehensive review of mHealth technologies for PD detection from 2000 to 2019, and compares their pros and cons in practical applications and provides insights to close the performance gap between state-of-the-art clinical approaches and mHealth technologies.

Abstract
Goal: Because of the outbreak of coronavirus infection, healthcare systems are faced with the lack of medical professionals. We present a system for the differential diagnosis of coronavirus disease, based on deep learning techniques, which can be implemented in clinics. Methods: A recurrent network with a convolutional neural network as an encoder and an attention mechanism is used. A database of about 3000 records of coughing was collected. The data was collected through the Acoustery mobile application in hospitals in Russia, Belarus, and Kazakhstan from April 2020 to October 2020. Results: The model classification accuracy reaches 85%. Values of precision and recall metrics are 78.5% and 73%. Conclusions: We reached satisfactory results in solving the problem. The proposed model is already being tested by doctors to understand the ways of improvement. Other architectures should be considered that use a larger training sample and all available patient information.

Abstract
Datasets sourced from people with disabilities and older adults play an important role in innovation, benchmarking, and mitigating bias for both assistive and inclusive AI-infused applications. However, they are scarce. We conduct a systematic review of 137 accessibility datasets manually located across different disciplines over the last 35 years. Our analysis highlights how researchers navigate tensions between benefits and risks in data collection and sharing. We uncover patterns in data collection purpose, terminology, sample size, data types, and data sharing practices across communities of focus. We conclude by critically reflecting on challenges and opportunities related to locating and sharing accessibility datasets calling for technical, legal, and institutional privacy frameworks that are more attuned to concerns from these communities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Together with the Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease is considered as one of the two serious known neurodegenerative diseases. Physicians find it hard to predict whether a given patient has already developed or is expected to develop the Parkinson's disease in the future. To overcome this difficulty, it is possible to develop a computing model, which analyzes the data related to a given patient and predicts with acceptable accuracy when he/she is anticipated to develop the Parkinson's disease. OBJECTIVES This paper contributes an attractive prediction framework based on some machine learning approaches for distinguishing people with Parkinsonism from healthy individuals. METHODS Several fuzzy classifiers such as Inductive Fuzzy Classifier, Fuzzy Rough Classifier and two types of neuro-fuzzy classifiers have been employed. RESULTS The fuzzy classifiers utilized in this study have been tested using the "Parkinson Speech Dataset with Multiple Types of Sound Recordings Data Set" of 40 subjects available on the UCI repository. CONCLUSION The results achieved show that FURIA, MLP- Bagging - SGD, genfis2 and scg1 performed the best among the fuzzy rough, WEKA, adaptive neuro-fuzzy and neuro-fuzzy classifiers, respectively. The worst performance belongs to nearest neighborhood, IBK, genfis3 and scg3 among the formerly mentioned classifiers. The results reported in this paper are better in comparison to the results reported in Sakar et al., where the same dataset was used, with utilization of different classifiers. This demonstrates the applicability and effectiveness of the fuzzy classifiers used in this study as compared to the non-fuzzy classifiers used by Sakar et al.

Abstract
Background Parkinson disease (PD) is one of the most common neurological diseases. At present, because the exact cause is still unclear, accurate diagnosis and progression monitoring remain challenging. In recent years, exploring the relationship between PD and speech impairment has attracted widespread attention in the academic world. Most of the studies successfully validated the effectiveness of some vocal features. Moreover, the noninvasive nature of speech signal–based testing has pioneered a new way for telediagnosis and telemonitoring. In particular, there is an increasing demand for artificial intelligence–powered tools in the digital health era. Objective This study aimed to build a real-time speech signal analysis tool for PD diagnosis and severity assessment. Further, the underlying system should be flexible enough to integrate any machine learning or deep learning algorithm. Methods At its core, the system we built consists of two parts: (1) speech signal processing: both traditional and novel speech signal processing technologies have been employed for feature engineering, which can automatically extract a few linear and nonlinear dysphonia features, and (2) application of machine learning algorithms: some classical regression and classification algorithms from the machine learning field have been tested; we then chose the most efficient algorithms and relevant features. Results Experimental results showed that our system had an outstanding ability to both diagnose and assess severity of PD. By using both linear and nonlinear dysphonia features, the accuracy reached 88.74% and recall reached 97.03% in the diagnosis task. Meanwhile, mean absolute error was 3.7699 in the assessment task. The system has already been deployed within a mobile app called No Pa. Conclusions This study performed diagnosis and severity assessment of PD from the perspective of speech order detection. The efficiency and effectiveness of the algorithms indirectly validated the practicality of the system. In particular, the system reflects the necessity of a publicly accessible PD diagnosis and assessment system that can perform telediagnosis and telemonitoring of PD. This system can also optimize doctors’ decision-making processes regarding treatments.
