On the Mutual Information between Source and Filter Contributions for Voice Pathology Detection
This paper addresses the problem of automatic detection of voice pathologies directly from the speech signal. For this, we investigate the use of the glottal source estimation as a means to detect voice disorders. Three sets of features are proposed, depending on whether they are related to the speech or the glottal signal, or to prosody. The relevancy of these features is assessed through mutual information-based measures. This allows an intuitive interpretation in terms of discrimation power and redundancy between the features, independently of any subsequent classifier. It is discussed which characteristics are interestingly informative or complementary for detecting voice pathologies.

MINT: Deep Network Compression via Mutual Information-based Neuron Trimming
Most approaches to deep neural network compression via pruning either evaluate a filter's importance using its weights or optimize an alternative objective function with sparsity constraints. While these methods offer a …
Neural Network CompressionDetecting Mislabeled and Corrupted Data via Pointwise Mutual Information
Deep neural networks can memorize corrupted labels, making data quality critical for model performance, yet real-world datasets are frequently compromised by both label noise and input noise. This paper proposes a mutual…
MINERVA: Mutual Information Neural Estimation for Supervised Feature Selection
Existing feature filters rely on statistical pair-wise dependence metrics to model feature-target relationships, but this approach may fail when the target depends on higher-order feature interactions rather than individ…
