Abstract:
A system and method of identifying an impaired brain functionality such as a mild traumatic brain injury using speech analysis. In one example, recordings are taken on a device from athletes participating in a boxing tournament following each match. In one instance, vowel sounds are isolated from the recordings and acoustic features are extracted and used to train several one-class machine learning algorithms in order to predict whether an athlete is concussed.
