AI Tool CognoSpeak: Accelerating Dementia Diagnosis

Researchers at the University of Sheffield, UK, have developed CognoSpeak, an AI tool designed to speed up the diagnosis of early signs of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.

How CognoSpeak Works

Backed by the NHS and National Institute for Health and Care Research, CognoSpeak uses AI and speech technology to analyze language and speech patterns that may indicate these conditions. The tool operates as a virtual agent on a laptop or tablet, engaging the patient in a conversation and performing cognitive tests and memory-probing questions similar to outpatient consultations. The AI then analyzes the speech and language patterns for early signs of dementia or Alzheimer’s.

Promise and Impact

CognoSpeak has shown promise in early trials, demonstrating an accuracy rate comparable to traditional pen-and-paper assessments in predicting Alzheimer’s. It has also been undergoing broader trials involving 700 participants from UK memory clinics. Dr. Blackburn from the University of Sheffield highlighted the tool’s potential to help patients start treatments sooner, reduce waiting times, and provide certainty earlier. Professor Heidi Christensen emphasized the significance of speech in detecting cognitive health and the tool’s ability to transform dementia diagnosis by speeding assessments and freeing clinicians’ time.

AI for Neurological Disorders

AI has shown immense promise in supporting those with forms of neurological disability or impairment, from ALS to Alzheimer’s. Speech analysis has also been used to detect and analyze schizophrenia, while machine learning-integrated interfaces have restored movement to previously paralyzed limbs and helped those with severe speech disabilities to communicate.
