Title
Support vector machines applied to the detection of voice disorders
Abstract
Support Vector Machines (SVMs) have become a popular tool for discriminative classification. An exciting area of recent application of SVMs is in speech processing. In this paper discriminatively trained SVMs have been introduced as a novel approach for the automatic detection of voice impairments. SVMs have a distinctly different modelling strategy in the detection of voice impairments problem, compared to other methods found in the literature (such a Gaussian Mixture or Hidden Markov Models): the SVM models the boundary between the classes instead of modelling the probability density of each class. In this paper it is shown that the scheme proposed fed with short-term cepstral and noise parameters can be applied for the detection of voice impairments with a good performance.
