## Abstract (arXiv)

Flexible laryngoscopy is commonly performed by otolaryngologists to detect laryngeal diseases and to recognize potentially malignant lesions. Recently, researchers have introduced machine learning techniques to facilitate automated diagnosis using laryngeal images and achieved promising results. Diagnostic performance can be improved when patients' demographic information is incorporated into models. However, manual entry of patient data is time consuming for clinicians. In this study, we made the first endeavor to employ deep learning models to predict patient demographic information to improve detector model performance. The overall accuracy for gender, smoking history, and age was 85.5%, 65.2%, and 75.9%, respectively. We also created a new laryngoscopic image set for machine learning study and benchmarked the performance of 8 classical deep learning models based on CNNs and Transformers. The results can be integrated into current learning models to improve their performance by incorporating the patient's demographic information.
