Dissociating memory and executive function impairment through temporal features in a word list verbal learning task
September 13, 2023
Temporal features highlight cognitive subtypes in Mild Cognitive Impairment and differentiate between memory and executive function issues. These features show diagnostic promise in machine learning contexts.
Validation of an Automated Speech Analysis of Cognitive Tasks within a Semiautomated Phone Assessment
August 31, 2023
The study evaluated the accuracy of automatic speech recognition (ASR) software against manual scores in memory clinic assessments. The ASR showed high agreement with manual scores, and the phone-based tests effectively differentiated between subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
