Cough is a common symptom of respiratory and lung diseases. Cough detection is important to prevent, assess and control epidemic, such as COVID-19. This paper proposes a model to detect cough events from cough audio signals. The models are…
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health threat, ranking among the leading causes of mortality worldwide. In this context, machine learning (ML) has emerged as a transformative force, providing innovative solutions to the complexities…
Tuberculosis is a deadly infectious disease prevalent around the world. Due to the lack of proper technology in place, the early detection of this disease is unattainable. Also, the available methods to detect Tuberculosis is not up-to a…
Tuberculosis (TB) is an airborne disease caused by the pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In 2023, it returned to being the leading cause of death from an infectious agent globally, replacing COVID-19; in the nineteenth century, one in…
This paper addresses the issue of cough detection using only audio recordings, with the ultimate goal of quantifying and qualifying the degree of pathology for patients suffering from respiratory diseases, notably mucoviscidosis. A large…
This study explores the application of machine learning models, specifically a pretrained ResNet-50 model and a general SqueezeNet model, in diagnosing tuberculosis (TB) using chest X-ray images. TB, a persistent infectious disease…
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by a germ called Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is one of the most serious public health problems in Peru and the world. The development of this project seeks to facilitate and automate the diagnosis of tuberculosis…
Background: Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious bacterial disease presenting similar symptoms to pneumonia; therefore, differentiating between TB and pneumonia is challenging. Therefore, the main aim of this study is proposing…
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease transmitted through the respiratory system. China is one of the countries with a high burden of TB. Since 2004, an average of more than 800,000 cases of active TB have been reported each year in…
Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious disease that causes 1.5 million deaths per year globally. Early diagnosis of TB patients is critical to control its spread. However, standard TB diagnostic tests such as sputum culture take days to weeks to…
Cough is one of the most common symptoms in all respiratory diseases. In cases like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Asthma, acute and chronic Bronchitis and the recent pandemic Covid-19, the early identification of cough is important…
We present a new machine learning based bed-occupancy detection system that uses the accelerometer signal captured by a bed-attached consumer smartphone. Automatic bed-occupancy detection is necessary for automatic long-term cough…
Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, primarily affecting the lungs. Early detection is crucial for improving treatment effectiveness and reducing transmission risk. Artificial intelligence (AI),…
Tuberculosis (TB), an infectious bacterial disease, is a significant cause of death, especially in low-income countries, with an estimated ten million new cases reported globally in $2020$. While TB is treatable, non-adherence to the…
In the framework of assessing the pathology severity in chronic cough diseases, medical literature underlines the lack of tools for allowing the automatic, objective and reliable detection of cough events. This paper describes a system…
Regular tuberculosis (TB) screening is required for healthcare employees since they can come into contact with infected patients. TB is a serious, contagious, and potentially deadly disease. Early detection of the disease, even when it is…
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the world unevenly; while industrial economies have been able to produce the tests necessary to track the spread of the virus and mostly avoided complete lockdowns, developing countries have faced issues…
We have performed cough detection based on measurements from an accelerometer attached to the patient's bed. This form of monitoring is less intrusive than body-attached accelerometer sensors, and sidesteps privacy concerns encountered when…
Emerging wireless technologies, such as 5G and beyond, are bringing new use cases to the forefront, one of the most prominent being machine learning empowered health care. One of the notable modern medical concerns that impose an immense…
Tuberculosis persists as a global health crisis, especially in resource-limited populations and remote regions, with more than 10 million individuals newly infected annually. It stands as a stark symbol of inequity in public health.…
