16:00 - 16:20 Monitoring quality of life using voice biomarkers

Michael Stivaktakis - Quantum & AI Researcher, Merck

-Quality of life is a complex, multidimensional concept that is difficult to measure continuously using conventional methods.

-Voice biomarkers offer a promising alternative, as voice production is highly complex and sensitive to changes in physical and mental health.

-A machine learning model was developed to analyze voice characteristics and objectively assess quality of life.

-Due to the complex data structure, a quantum-based machine learning model was also investigated to capture deeper patterns.
