TAME Pain: Trustworthy AssessMEnt of Pain from Speech and Audio for the Empowerment of Patients
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Schneiders, E., Williams, J., Farahi, A., Seabrooke, T., Vigneswaran, G., Bautista, J. R., Dowthwaite, L., & Piskopani, A. M. (2023, July). TAME Pain: Trustworthy AssessMEnt of Pain from Speech and Audio for the Empowerment of Patients. Presented at TAS'23: First International Symposium on Trustworthy Autonomous Systems, Edinburgh, UK

Precise pain assessment is crucial for medical professionals to provide appropriate treatment. However, not every patient can verbalise the experienced pain for various reasons (e.g., speech disorders or language barriers). In these cases, medical pr...
