Abstract in brief

  • The study developed an automated method using speech analysis and machine learning to predict whether individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) will develop Alzheimer's disease (AD) within six years, with an accuracy of 78.5%.
  • The approach analyzes speech from neuropsychological tests, incorporating basic demographic info like age, sex, and education, making it a potentially inexpensive and accessible screening tool.
  • This AI-powered system can enable remote, cost-effective, and easy-to-administer assessments, aiding early detection and intervention for Alzheimer's by predicting disease progression through speech data.]

WSJの記事『経営者の認知症、AIが予測する日』の引用論文は多分下記ですね。 オープンアクセスなので全文見れます。 翻訳しながら読むと、 言語データ等の使用で、『6年以内のMCIからADへの進行予測を精度78.5%、感度81.1%で行える』そうです。

@JasonSynaptic @zenbrainest I respect your opinion and understand why you don't think speculation is helpful. The truth is that it's possible. In lieu of a PET scan we'll never see, how about NLP speech recognition analysis, though his lifelong stutter would be a confound? https://t.co/84xKGj764A
