SPEECH ANALYSIS DEVICES AND METHODS FOR IDENTIFYING MIGRAINE ATTACKS

摘要

Speech analysis devices and methods for identifying migraine attacks are provided. Migraine sufferers can experience changes in speech patterns both during a migraine attack and in a pre-attack phase (e.g., a time period before the migraine attack can be recognized by the migraine sufferer). Embodiments identify or predict migraine attacks during the pre-attack phase and/or the attack phase (such as early stages of a migraine attack) by comparing speech features from one or more speech samples provided by a user against baseline data. The speech features are indicative and/or predictive of migraine onset, and can be personalized to a user and/or based on normative data.
