SonicWeave: Chunk-Routed Mixture-of-Experts for Unified Audio Scene Generation
Yunrui Cai, Xu Li, Yucheng Zhou +8
Text-conditioned general audio generation is moving beyond isolated speech, music, and sound-effect synthesis toward a single model that can compose them into controllable, coheren…
Agentic Cognitive Profiling: Realigning Automated Alzheimer's Disease Detection with Clinical Construct Validity
Jiawen Kang, Kun Li, Dongrui Han +5
Automated Alzheimer's Disease (AD) screening has predominantly followed the inductive paradigm of pattern recognition, which directly maps the input signal to the outcome label. Th…
Detecting Neurocognitive Disorders through Analyses of Topic Evolution and Cross-modal Consistency in Visual-Stimulated Narratives
Jinchao Li, Yuejiao Wang, Junan Li +14
Early detection of neurocognitive disorders (NCDs) is crucial for timely intervention and disease management. Given that language impairments manifest early in NCD progression, vis…
On the Within-class Variation Issue in Alzheimer's Disease Detection
Jiawen Kang, Dongrui Han, Lingwei Meng +4
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) detection commonly employs machine learning classification models to distinguish between individuals with AD and those without. Different from conventional…
Not All Errors Are Equal: Investigation of Speech Recognition Errors in Alzheimer's Disease Detection
Jiawen Kang, Junan Li, Jinchao Li +2
Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) plays an important role in speech-based automatic detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, recognition errors could propagate downstream,…
