Language-Based Automatic Assessment of Cognitive and Communicative Functions Related to Parkinson's Disease

We explore the use of natural language processing and machine learning for detecting evidence of Parkinson{'}s disease from transcribed speech of subjects who are describing everyday tasks. Experiments reveal the difficulty of treating this as a binary classification task, and a multi-class approach yields superior results. We also show that these models can be used to predict cognitive abilities across all subjects.
