VOCAL FOLD PATHOLOGY DIAGNOSIS ON THE BASIS OF GENETIC ALGORITHM AND DECISION TREE ENSEMBLE METHOD
Abstract
A combination of decision tree ensemble and genetic algorithm is proposed for the vocal fold pathology diagnosis by acoustic signals. The experimental results show a better performance (higher classification accuracy) of the proposed method in comparison with the others.
