We are the first to evaluate the representations from pre-trained state-of-the-art Self-Supervised models across three downstream tasks on dysarthric speech: disease classification, word recognition and intelligibility classification, and under three noise scenarios on the UA-Speech dataset.

One approach to mitigate the risk of paralinguistic-based privacy breaches is to exploit a combination of cloud-based processing with privacy-preserving, on-device paralinguistic information learning and filtering before transmitting voice data.

Our experimental evaluation over five datasets shows that the proposed framework can effectively defend against attribute inference attacks by reducing their success rates to approximately that of guessing at random, while maintaining accuracy in excess of 99% for the tasks of interest.

The voice signal is a rich resource that discloses several possible states of a speaker, such as emotional state, confidence and stress levels, physical condition, age, gender, and personal traits.
