Respiratory Pattern Analysis For Covid-19 Digital Screening Using Ai Techniques, Annita Tahsin Priyoti Aug 2022

Respiratory Pattern Analysis For Covid-19 Digital Screening Using Ai Techniques, Annita Tahsin Priyoti

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Corona Virus (COVID-19) is a highly contagious respiratory disease that the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared a worldwide epidemic. This virus has spread worldwide, affecting various countries until now, causing millions of deaths globally. To tackle this public health crisis, medical professionals and researchers are working relentlessly, applying different techniques and methods. In terms of diagnosis, respiratory sound has been recognized as an indicator of one’s health condition. Our work is based on cough sound analysis. This study has included an in-depth analysis of the diagnosis of COVID-19 based on human cough sound. Based on cough audio samples from …


A Deep Topical N-Gram Model And Topic Discovery On Covid-19 News And Research Manuscripts, Yuan Du Mar 2021

A Deep Topical N-Gram Model And Topic Discovery On Covid-19 News And Research Manuscripts, Yuan Du

Topic modeling with the latent semantic analysis (LSA), the latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) and the biterm topic model (BTM) has been successfully implemented and used in many areas, including movie reviews, recommender systems, and text summarization, etc. However, these models may become computationally intensive if tested on a humongous corpus. Considering the wide acceptance of machine learning based on deep neural networks, this research proposes two deep neural network (NN) variants, 2-layer NN and 3-layer NN of the LDA modeling techniques. The primary goal is to deal with problems with a large corpus using manageable computational resources.

In the field of bioinformatics, taxonomic classification is the scientific practice of identifying, naming, and grouping of organisms based on their similarities and differences. The problem of taxonomic classification is of immense importance considering that nearly 86% of existing species on Earth and 91% of marine species remain unclassified. Due to the magnitude of the datasets, the need exists for an approach and software tool that is scalable enough to handle large datasets and can be used for rapid sequence comparison and analysis. We propose ML-DSP, a stand-alone alignment-free software tool that uses Machine Learning and Digital Signal Processing to …
