| Popis: | Automatic voice pathology detection enables an objective assessment of pathologies that influence the voice production strategy. By utilizing the conventional pipeline model as well as the modern deep learning-centric end-to-end methodology, numerous pathological voice analyzing techniques have been developed. The conventional methodology is still a valid choice owing to the lack of enormous amounts of training data in the study region of pathological voice. In the meantime, obtaining higher precision, higher accuracy, and stability is still a complicated task. Therefore, by amalgamating the nonlinear measure, the pathological voices are analyzed to abate such risks. The viability of six nonlinear discriminating measures derived from the phase space realm, involving healthy and pathological voice signals, is studied in this work. The analyzed parameters are Singularity spectrum coefficients ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]). Correlation entropy at optimum embedding dimension ([Formula: see text]) and correlation dimension at optimum embedding dimension ([Formula: see text]). Analyzing the pathological voices with better accuracy rates is the major objective of the proposed methodology. Here, the Support Vector Machine (SVM) was utilized as the classifier. Experimentations were performed on VOiceICarfEDerico (VOICED) databases subsuming 208 healthy, as well as pathological voices, amongst these 50 samples, were utilized. Here, the model obtained 97% of accuracy with 99% as of the classifier with Gaussian kernel function. Therefore, to differentiate normal as well as pathological subjects, the six proposed characteristics are highly beneficial; in addition, they will be supportive in pathology diagnosis. |
