Mixture of Experts for Recognizing Depression from Interview and Reading Tasks

Depression is a mental disorder and can cause a variety of symptoms, including psychological, physical, and social. Speech has been proved an objective marker for the early recognition of depression. For this reason, many studies have been developed aiming to recognize depression through speech. However, existing methods rely on the usage of only the spontaneous speech neglecting information obtained via read speech, use transcripts which are often difficult to obtain (manual) or come with high word-error rates (automatic), and do not focus on input-conditional computation methods. To resolve these limitations, this is the first study in depression recognition task obtaining representations of both spontaneous and read speech, utilizing multimodal fusion methods, and employing Mixture of Experts (MoE) models in a single deep neural network. Specifically, we use audio files corresponding to both interview and reading tasks and convert each audio file into log-Mel spectrogram, delta, and delta-delta. Next, the image representations of the two tasks pass through shared AlexNet models. The outputs of the AlexNet models are given as input to a multimodal fusion method. The resulting vector is passed through a MoE module. In this study, we employ three variants of MoE, namely sparsely-gated MoE and multilinear MoE based on factorization. Findings suggest that our proposed approach yields an Accuracy and F1-score of 87.00% and 86.66% respectively on the Androids corpus.
