A Performance Study of ML Models and Neural Networks for Detection of Parkinson Disease using Dysarthria Symptoms

Abstract

Parkinson Disease (PD) is brain disorder that affects the central nervous system that results in damage of nerve cells causing dopamine to drop. PD has a severe effect on vocal features termed as Dysarthria symptoms including varied pitch, extended pauses, monotonous and speaking slowly or with a slur. In this paper, a dataset containing various vocal features are taken as input to analyze the performance of various Machine Learning algorithms including Naive Bayes, Random Forest Classifier, Support Vector Machines (SVM), Linear Regression, K Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Neural Networks such as ANN and LSTM. The best classification accuracy was obtained by ANN around 90.00%.
