  • Publication number: 20250140402
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for techniques for speech language model training and application. An apparatus includes a processor and a memory coupled with the processor. The memory stores code that is executable by the processor to train a first speech model in a first language, the first speech model used to determine one or more characteristics of speech data that is indicative of MCI, train a second speech model for use in a second language using at least a portion of the first speech model trained in the first language, apply the second speech model trained for use in the second language to speech data for a user captured in the second language, and determine, based on output from the second speech model trained for use in the second language, an assessment of MCI for the user.

  • Publication number: 20240331882
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for medical assessment based on voice. A query module is configured to audibly question a user from an electronic display screen and/or a speaker of a computing device with one or more open ended questions. A response module is configured to receive a conversational verbal response of a user from a microphone of a computing device in response to one or more open ended questions. A detection module is configured to provide a machine learning assessment for a user of a medical condition based on a machine learning analysis of a received conversational verbal response of the user.

  • Publication number: 20210142917
    Abstract: A mathematical model may be trained to diagnose a medical condition of a person by processing acoustic features and language features of speech of the person. The performance of the mathematical model may be improved by appropriately selecting the features to be used with the mathematical model. Features may be selected by computing a feature selection score for each acoustic feature and each language feature, and then selecting features using the scores, such as by selecting features with the highest scores. In some implementations, stability determinations may be computed for each feature and features may be selected using both the feature selection scores and the stability determinations. A mathematical model may then be trained using the selected features and deployed. In some implementations, prompts may be selected using computed prompt selection scores, and the deployed mathematical model may be used with the selected prompts.
