- Abstract
One of the possibilities for developing computerized diagnostic tools for Parkinson’s disease (PD) is to utilize the voice change known as Parkinsonian dysarthria. Voice features extracted from sustained phonemes have been statistically investigated as parameters for this purpose. However, the commonly used statistical presentation methods often obscure interpretations. This paper introduces an alternative approach using probability density distribution analysis to analyze voice features. The analysis was applied to recordings of sustained phonemes from the PC-GITA dataset. The findings reveal a significant overlap between the distributions of PD and healthy subjects (HC), with PD features exhibiting a wider distribution compared to HC. This result suggests the potential use of these features to identify PD, but it should be noted that a considerable number of PD cases may have voice features similar to HC.
