Objectives

Narrative objectives1

To establish a foundation for speech analysis capable of simultaneously estimating cognitive function (cognitively normal, mild cognitive impairment [MCI], and dementia) and depressive symptoms from older adults' conversational speech, and to construct a multitask machine learning algorithm to achieve this from a single voice sample.

Developmental phase



Assessment

Primary outcomes

Accuracy of cognitive function and depressive symptom estimates based on acoustic features using the developed machine learning model.

Key secondary outcomes

Associations between acoustic features and cognitive function, as well as symptoms and clinical states including depressive symptoms, apathy, and those assessed using the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI).
