Thanks to improvement of means of communication performance and intelligent systems, research works to detect speech disorders by analysing voice signals are very promising. This paper demonstrates that dysarthria in people with Parkinson's disease (PWP) can be diagnosed using a classification of the characteristics of their voices. For this purpose, we have experimented two types of classifiers, namely Bernoulli and multinomial naïve Bayes in order to select the most pertinent features parameters for diagnosing PWP. The prediction accuracy achieved by using multinomial naive Bayes (NB) classifier model reaching 95 % is very encouraging.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
