Speech Impairment in Parkinson’s Disease: Acoustic Analysis of Unvoiced Consonants in Italian Native Speakers

The study of the influence of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) on vocal signals has received much attention over the last decades. Increasing interest has been devoted to articulation and acoustic characterization of different phonemes.

An algorithm for Parkinson’s disease speech classification based on isolated words analysis

Automatic assessment of speech impairment is a cutting edge topic in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Language disorders are known to occur several years earlier than typical motor symptoms, thus speech analysis may contribute to the early diagnosis of the disease. Moreover, the remote monitoring of dysphonia could allow achieving an effective follow-up of PD clinical condition, possibly performed in the home environment.

A Two-Stage Atrous Convolution Neural Network for Brain Tumor Segmentation and Survival Prediction

Glioma is a type of heterogeneous tumor originating in the brain, characterized by the coexistence of multiple subregions with different phenotypic characteristics, which further determine heterogeneous profiles, likely to respond variably to treatment. Identifying spatial variations of gliomas is necessary for targeted therapy.

Three-Dimensional Facial Anthropometric Analysis With and Without Landmark Labelling: Is There a Real Difference?

The actual role of landmarks labeling before three-dimensional (3D) facial acquisition is still debated. In this study, several measurements were compared among textured labeled (TL), unlabeled (NL), and untextured (NTL) 3D facial models.

Exploiting Cognitive Architectures to Design Storytelling Activities for NarRob

In this work, we exploited the potential of a cognitive architecture to model the characters of a story in an interactive storytelling system. The system is accessible through NarRob, a humanoid storyteller robot. Our main goal was to implement the cognitive processes of the agents played by the robot within a narrative context environment.
