Abstract(s)

The classification study with the use of machine learning concepts has been applied for years, and one of the aspects in which this can be applied is for the analysis of speech acoustics applied to the analysis of pathologies. Among the pathologies present, one of them is chronic laryngitis. Thus, this article aims to present the results for a classification of chronic laryngitis with the use of Long Short Term Memory as a classifier. The parameters of relative jitter, relative shimmer and autocorrelation was used as input of the LSTM. A dataset of about 1500 instances were used to train, validate and test along 4 experiments with LSTM and one feedforward Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The results of the LSTM overcome the ones of the feedforward ANN, and was about 100% accuracy, sensitivity and specificity in test set, denoting a promising future for this classification tool in the voice pathologies diagnose.
