Building on the success of the ADReSS Challenge at Interspeech 2020, which attracted the participation of 34 teams from across the world, the ADReSSo Challenge targets three difficult automatic prediction problems of societal and medical relevance, namely: detection of Alzheimer's Dementia, inference of cognitive testing scores, and prediction of cognitive decline. This paper presents these prediction tasks in detail, describes the datasets used, and reports the results of the baseline classification and regression models we developed for each task. A combination of acoustic and linguistic features extracted directly from audio recordings, without human intervention, yielded a baseline accuracy of 78.87% for the AD classification task, an MMSE prediction root mean squared (RMSE) error of 5.28, and 68.75% accuracy for the cognitive decline prediction task.

    A multimodal LLM pipeline (Qwen audio + Qwen text embeddings, concatenated and classified) reaches 92.4% accuracy on a combined ADReSS20/ADReSSo21 test set, but the evaluation does not justify state-of-the-art or cros...

  3. Beyond Manual Transcripts: The Potential of Automated Speech Recognition Errors in Improving Alzheimer's Disease Detection

    eess.AS 2025-05 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Certain ASR transcripts and speech synthesized from them outperform manual transcripts in Alzheimer's disease detection, suggesting ASR errors can serve as useful diagnostic cues.

    eess.AS 2025-05 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A cascaded two-stage classifier and a multimodal feature ensemble beat the PROCESS 2025 challenge baselines for dementia detection and MMSE score prediction from spontaneous speech.

  5. Predicting Cognitive Decline: A Multimodal AI Approach to Dementia Screening from Speech

    eess.AS 2025-02 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A multimodal speech-analysis pipeline ranks mid-pack in the PROCESS dementia screening challenge, though its reported rank numbers are internally inconsistent.
