Article Synopsis
- A new Slovak speech database called EWA-DB was developed for research focused on detecting neurodegenerative diseases through speech analysis.
- The database includes recordings from 1649 speakers, including those with Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment, Parkinson's disease, and healthy individuals, performing various speech tasks.
- The article outlines the creation process of EWA-DB, detailing language task selection, recruitment of participants, and recording methods, with potential applications in predicting diagnoses based on speech features.
