Acoustic signatures of bulbar ALS: Predictive modeling with sustained vowels and LightGBM

This paper demonstrates the applicability of acoustic analysis and machine learning for early ALS detection. The proposed method provides an affordable, low-cost, and non-invasive way for ALS diagnosis with potential for application in telemedicine and clinical settings. Future research must expand datasets and integrate additional diagnostic modalities to improve the model's robustness and clinical translation.

Abstract

This paper demonstrates the applicability of acoustic analysis and machine learning for early ALS detection. The proposed method provides an affordable, low-cost, and non-invasive way for ALS diagnosis with potential for application in telemedicine and clinical settings. Future research must expand datasets and integrate additional diagnostic modalities to improve the model's robustness and clinical translation.
