摘要:
Provided herein is a method and system for the estimation of apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), as an indicator for Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity, by combining speech descriptors from three separate and distinct speech signal domains. These domains include the acoustic short-term features (STF) of continuous speech, the long-term features (LTF) of continuous speech, and features of sustained vowels (SVF). Combining these speech descriptors may provide the ability to estimate the severity of OSA using statistical learning and speech analysis approaches.
