Automatic pulmonary nodules classification is significant for early diagnosis of lung cancers. Recently, deep learning techniques have enabled remarkable progress in this field. However, these deep models are typically of high computational…

Auscultation remains a cornerstone of clinical practice, essential for both initial evaluation and continuous monitoring. Clinicians listen to the lung sounds and make a diagnosis by combining the patient's medical history and test results.…

Today, data collection has improved in various areas, and the medical domain is no exception. Auscultation, as an important diagnostic technique for physicians, due to the progress and availability of digital stethoscopes, lends itself well…

Lung sounds refer to the sound generated by air moving through the respiratory system. These sounds, as most biomedical signals, are non-linear and non-stationary. A vital part of using the lung sound for disease detection is discrimination…

Cardiac auscultation involves expert interpretation of abnormalities in heart sounds using stethoscope. Deep learning based cardiac auscultation is of significant interest to the healthcare community as it can help reducing the burden of…

We describe a new convolutional framework for waveform evaluation, WEnets, and build a Narrowband Audio Waveform Evaluation Network, or NAWEnet, using this framework. NAWEnet is single-ended (or no-reference) and was trained three separate…

Acoustic beamformers have been widely used to enhance audio signals. Currently, the best methods are the deep neural network (DNN)-powered variants of the generalized eigenvalue and minimum-variance distortionless response beamformers and…
