Abstract

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), 235 million people suffer from respiratory illnesses which causes four million deaths annually. Regular lung health monitoring can lead to prognoses about deteriorating lung health conditions. This article presents our system SpiroMask that retrofits a microphone in consumer-grade masks (N95 and cloth masks) for continuous lung health monitoring. We evaluate our approach on 48 participants (including 14 with lung health issues) and find that we can estimate parameters such as lung volume and respiration rate within the approved error range by the American Thoracic Society (ATS). Further, we show that our approach is robust to sensor placement inside the mask.

In this work, prediction of forced expiratory volume in pulmonary function test, carried out using spirometry and neural networks is presented. The pulmonary function data were recorded from volunteers using commercial available flow volume spirometer ...
Image based diagnostic aid system for interstitial lung diseases

Research highlights Our computer aided diagnosis system takes advantage of an effective algorithm developed in our laboratory for parenchyma segmentation in HRCT images. Then, features are determined using two sets of overcomplete wavelet filters, ...
Machine Learning-Assisted Diagnosis Model for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a long-term, irreversible, and progressive respiratory disease that often leads to lung function decline. Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) provide valuable information for diagnosing COPD; however, they are ...
