With the widespread use of telemedicine services, automatic assessment of health conditions via telephone speech can significantly impact public health. This work summarizes our preliminary findings on automatic detection of respiratory distress using well-known acoustic and prosodic features. Speech samples are collected from de-identified telemedicine phonecalls from a healthcare provider in Bangladesh. The recordings include conversational speech samples of patients talking to doctors showing mild or severe respiratory distress or asthma symptoms. We hypothesize that respiratory distress may alter speech features such as voice quality, speaking pattern, loudness, and speech-pause duration. To capture these variations, we utilize a set of well-known acoustic and prosodic features with a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier for detecting the presence of respiratory distress. Experimental evaluations are performed using a 3-fold cross-validation scheme, ensuring patient-independent data splits. We obtained an overall accuracy of 86.4% in detecting respiratory distress from the speech recordings using the acoustic feature set. Correlation analysis reveals that the top-performing features include loudness, voice rate, voice duration, and pause duration.

The purpose of speech dereverberation is to remove quality-degrading effects of a time-invariant impulse response filter from the signal. In this report, we describe an approach to speech dereverberation that involves joint estimation of the dry spee
ch signal and of the room impulse response. We explore deep learning models that apply to each task separately, and how these can be combined in a joint model with shared parameters.
Multi-channel deep clustering (MDC) has acquired a good performance for speech separation. However, MDC only applies the spatial features as the additional information. So it is difficult to learn mutual relationship between spatial and spectral feat
ures. Besides, the training objective of MDC is defined at embedding vectors, rather than real separated sources, which may damage the separation performance. In this work, we propose a deep attention fusion method to dynamically control the weights of the spectral and spatial features and combine them deeply. In addition, to solve the training objective problem of MDC, the real separated sources are used as the training objectives. Specifically, we apply the deep clustering network to extract deep embedding features. Instead of using the unsupervised K-means clustering to estimate binary masks, another supervised network is utilized to learn soft masks from these deep embedding features. Our experiments are conducted on a spatialized reverberant version of WSJ0-2mix dataset. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms MDC baseline and even better than the oracle ideal binary mask (IBM).
This paper presents and explores a robust deep learning framework for auscultation analysis. This aims to classify anomalies in respiratory cycles and detect disease, from respiratory sound recordings. The framework begins with front-end feature extr
action that transforms input sound into a spectrogram representation. Then, a back-end deep learning network is used to classify the spectrogram features into categories of respiratory anomaly cycles or diseases. Experiments, conducted over the ICBHI benchmark dataset of respiratory sounds, confirm three main contributions towards respiratory-sound analysis. Firstly, we carry out an extensive exploration of the effect of spectrogram type, spectral-time resolution, overlapped/non-overlapped windows, and data augmentation on final prediction accuracy. This leads us to propose a novel deep learning system, built on the proposed framework, which outperforms current state-of-the-art methods. Finally, we apply a Teacher-Student scheme to achieve a trade-off between model performance and model complexity which additionally helps to increase the potential of the proposed framework for building real-time applications.
In this work, we propose an overlapped speech detection system trained as a three-class classifier. Unlike conventional systems that perform binary classification as to whether or not a frame contains overlapped speech, the proposed approach classifi
es into three classes: non-speech, single speaker speech, and overlapped speech. By training a network with the more detailed label definition, the model can learn a better notion on deciding the number of speakers included in a given frame. A convolutional recurrent neural network architecture is explored to benefit from both convolutional layers capability to model local patterns and recurrent layers ability to model sequential information. The proposed overlapped speech detection model establishes a state-of-the-art performance with a precision of 0.6648 and a recall of 0.3222 on the DIHARD II evaluation set, showing a 20% increase in recall along with higher precision. In addition, we also introduce a simple approach to utilize the proposed overlapped speech detection model for speaker diarization which ranked third place in the Track 1 of the DIHARD III challenge.
The understanding and interpretation of speech can be affected by various external factors. The use of face masks is one such factors that can create obstruction to speech while communicating. This may lead to degradation of speech processing and aff
ect humans perceptually. Knowing whether a speaker wears a mask may be useful for modeling speech for different applications. With this motivation, finding whether a speaker wears face mask from a given speech is included as a task in Computational Paralinguistics Evaluation (ComParE) 2020. We study novel acoustic features based on linear filterbanks, instantaneous phase and long-term information that can capture the artifacts for classification of speech with and without face mask. These acoustic features are used along with the state-of-the-art baselines of ComParE functionals, bag-of-audio-words, DeepSpectrum and auDeep features for ComParE 2020. The studies reveal the effectiveness of acoustic features, and their score level fusion with the ComParE 2020 baselines leads to an unweighted average recall of 73.50% on the test set.
