New Publication in JMIR Medical Informatics

PhD student Arifa Zahir published a paper on voice-based Parkinson disease screening in JMIR Medical Informatics.

PhD student Arifa Zahir and colleagues published the paper “A Machine Learning Approach to Voice-Based Parkinson Disease Screening Using Multiview Spectrogram and Speech Recognition Features: Diagnostic Study” in JMIR Medical Informatics.

The study presents a machine learning framework for noninvasive Parkinson disease screening using multiple spectrogram representations and speech-recognition-based features.

The proposed model combines Mel spectrogram, short-time Fourier transform, and constant-Q transform representations with a recognition-aware feature derived from automatic speech recognition.
