arXiv:2606. 30646v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech recruits the same executive, attentional, and working memory processes underlying instrumental activities of daily living, or IADLs, providing a non-invasive proxy for cognitive assessment.

arXiv:2607. 21496v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cognitive impairment (CI) is a growing public health concern.

arXiv:2606. 14788v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Voice-based screening offers a scalable and non-invasive way to assess neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), but their staging remains challenging due to the difficulty of integrating heterogeneous data.

arXiv:2607. 10168v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: It is still hard to find Alzheimer's disease (AD) early, especially when neuroimaging is expensive or tools that depend on language are not available.

arXiv:2606. 18571v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a medical condition characterized by a noticeable decline in memory, language, or thinking abilities.

arXiv:2602. 11177v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reliable early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is challenging, particularly due to the limited availability of labeled data.

arXiv:2606. 00959v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding modality interaction in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) is central to reliable deployment.
By Wanlong Fang, Tianle Zhang, Wen Tao, Alvin Chan
The development of multilingual Alzheimer's Disease Dementia (AD) detection models presents significant challenges due to the resource-intensive and time-consuming nature of language-specific model training. We propose a novel solution using cross-language training to detect AD in languages beyond those used for model training.
arXiv:2607. 06831v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech-to-text alignment means finding the temporal boundaries of each word in the audio.

arXiv:2606. 14391v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite advances in large-scale Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), disfluent speech remains challenging, as state-of-the-art systems are often optimized to omit disfluencies, leading to information loss and hallucinations.
