These advances are changing the way in which we diagnose and treat certain pathologies, and they are calling us to take full advantage of this technology\u2019s potential.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What does this consist of? Imagine which feelings or emotions you feel when hearing a voice\u2026 Can you feel the exhaustion of the person on the other side, their age, gender (of course), height, complexion\u2026?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Okay, great, you have a good imagination\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But, yes\u2026 We can feel and experience things (many more than we believe, like credibility, trustworthiness, etc.) through voice input only. Big matters in terms of our survival for which we are beginning research about their impact on our nature and behavior as human beings\u2026\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Whenever someone talks to us we hear words, syntax and prosody all at once. Afterwards, we look for clues about the type of person that the speaker is and what they are trying to say. We analyze the context using considerable intellectual capabilities to try and make sense of what we are hearing. \u201cThe brain is connected to see every aspect of every human expression as significant\u201d, wrote Clifford Nass, a pioneering thinker in machine-human relations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But in all, if we compare our data recollection to the variables that trained AI can detect to this same end, ours are few, a ridiculously tiny amount\u2026 AI does not care for prosody, syntax or words. It only analyzes millions of images, soundwaves\u2026 Data, data and more data\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And so you will say, what does this have to do with healthcare? Well, one of the many tasks that AI can be used for is the analysis of voice biomarkers. But, what are they exactly?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Voice biomarker analysis through AI is an innovative technique in which AI technology is used to evaluate and extract relevant information from the vocal characteristics of a person. These vocal traits include speech patterns, tone, rhythm, intonation and other voice characteristics that can provide clues to someone\u2019s health and wellbeing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Here is my explanation of the steps in this process:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Voice data recollection:<\/strong> the first step in voice biomarker analysis is compiling someone\u2019s voice recordings. These can be done through devices such as smartphones, microphones or voice assistants. In these recordings, different voice tests may be carried out or the voice can simply be recorded naturally.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Vocal trait extraction:<\/strong> once the voice recordings are done, AI algorithms are used to extract a wide variety of vocal features from said recordings. These traits can include voice frequency, speech rate, tonal variation, pause duration and many other measures that define how someone speaks.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Pattern analysis<\/strong>: AI analyzes the resulting voice characteristics in order to identify patterns and tendencies. It can look for subtil vocal differences that could indicate the presence of a specific disease or medical condition. For example, some pathologies like Parkinson can affect someone\u2019s speech fluency and intonation.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Health applications:<\/strong> the results of voice biomarker analysis can have several applications in the healthcare field. They can be used for early detection of diseases like Parkinson, heart disease, depression, respiratory infections and more. They can also provide information on the progression of a disease and help in monitoring patients over time.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We find ourselves at the beginning of a new way of understanding health through something that makes us unique: OUR VOICE, which is also something that, contrary to other parts of our body, ages at a slower pace. And thus, any small change is perceptible, not by us, but by AI that will help us in the early detection of diseases that cause small variations in our voice, changes so imperceptible that we will inevitably need the help of machines to detect\u2026 Maybe this is the start of a tAIght bond, and hopefully it will be if the end goal is to save millions of lives, instead of turning lights on and off at home.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The AI revolution has reached the world of healthcare in a way we never imagined.
