Although models such as the ComParE Baseline for audio and BERT-based text classifiers have been successful, they do not take advantage of the complementary strengths of both modalities, which restricts their diagnostic power. To overcome this, we suggest SPID-AD (Speech-Based Intelligent Detection of Alzheimer's Dementia), a multimodal deep-learning approach that combines linguistic and acoustic features for the automated detection of Alzheimer's. Our approach uses a BERT-based architecture to mine semantic patterns from transcripts and an augmented Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to process Mel-spectrogram representations of speech. By combining these features in dense layers, the model retains language-related as well as auditory biomarkers of cognitive impairment. Assessed on the DementiaBank Pitt Corpus, SPID-AD has 95.6% classification accuracy, surpassing state-of-the-art models in precision, recall, and F1-score.

To overcome these limitations, we introduce the CosineGAN-transformer network (CGTNet), which integrates a dual discriminator GAN for generating high-quality synthetic data with a Transformer-based classification network. Equipped with a multi-head self-attention mechanism, this network excels at capturing the intricate spatiotemporal relationships inherent in high-resolution fNIRS signals.

Experimental results on a publicly available fNIRS dataset, comprising 30 participants performing motor imagery tasks (right-hand tapping, left-hand tapping, and foot tapping), demonstrate that CGTNet achieves an accuracy of 82.67%, outperforming existing methods.

The U-shaped transfer function (UTF) is one of the transfer functions used to solve the problem of feature selection. However, the UTF requires the selection of parametric values, which can vary for different types of data. To address this issue, an approach to select the parameters of the UTF has been proposed based on a time-varying adaption method, resulting in the modified U-shaped transfer function (MUTF). Furthermore, a methodology has been proposed to enhance feature selection and classification for Parkinson's disease by utilizing z-score normalization in conjunction with a modified U-shaped transfer function and the binary self-adaptive bald eagle search (MUTF-SABES) optimization algorithm. The z-score normalization has been used to mitigate issues caused by outliers. Also, the performance of the k nearest neighbor classifier is improved by selecting an optimal parameter value using the proposed MUTF-SABES algorithm. The effectiveness of the proposed methodology is validated on seven different Parkinson's disease datasets and compared with five state-of-the-art optimization algorithms: Salp Swarm algorithm, Harris Hawks optimization, equilibrium optimizer, aquilla optimizer, and Honey Badger algorithm, to evaluate its performance superiority. The results achieved using the proposed approach have been superior or analogous to the erstwhile algorithms for performance comparability.

As a vital means of acquiring land cover and usage information, SAR sensors have become an important research direction due to their all-weather and all-day working capabilities. Nevertheless, traditional classification methods in PolSAR image classification often input a combination of various scattering features, i.e., high-dimensional feature combination, into classifiers, leading to mutual interference among different features and consequently degrading classification performance, especially for linear classifiers such as NRS and SVM. To mitigate this interference, this paper proposed an unsupervised feature selection based on spectral clustering (FSSC) that constructs a targeted approach by leveraging the linear expression capabilities of high-dimensional features. In this method, the linear relationships between different features are first analyzed, and the linear similarity between features can be quantitatively expressed using Pearson correlation coefficients, forming a feature similarity matrix. Subsequently, the similarity matrix undergoes unsupervised similarity partitioning through spectral clustering, dividing the features into distinct combinations. Features within clustering subsets can be considered as combinations with high linear similarity. Therefore, KL divergence is applied to select the most representative features within each cluster, and the resulting representative feature combinations from different clustering subsets are combined to form an optimal feature set, achieving the purpose of feature selection. This method maps high-dimensional feature combinations into low-dimensional ones while preserving the essential attributes of the original data, thereby retaining the valuable feature information and enhancing classification performance. Experimental outcomes conclusively show that the proposed method enhances the overall accuracy (OA) of SVM by 4.51% and the OA of NRS by 2.34% in the Flevoland Dataset, underscoring its efficacy in PolSAR image classification, especially for linear classifiers.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":55228,"journal":{"name":"Computational Intelligence","volume":"41 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143689491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
