PathoVoiceFAI : Enhancing Voice Pathology Classification in Human Voices

초록

Voice pathology classification has become one of the primary objectives of research in biomedical engineering. This paper proposes PathoVoiceFAI, a technique that enhances the multiclass pathology classification by leveraging the power of attention layers and appropriate fusioning technique to fuse the multimodal inputs. The preliminary results show that use of mid-level fusion with attention layers improves the classification accuracy by 5% in comparison to the standard decision-level fusion technique. This highlights the effect of powerful feature extraction in enhancing the classification outcomes for application in clinical environment.
