In this paper, we present an approach for multi-channel lung sound classification, exploiting spectral, temporal and spatial information. In particular, we propose a frame-wise classification framework to process full breathing cycles of multi-channel lung sound recordings with a convolutional recurrent neural network. With our recently developed 16-channel lung sound recording device, we collect lung sound recordings from lung-healthy subjects and patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), within a clinical trial.

In this paper, we present a method for event detection in single-channel lung sound recordings. This includes the detection of crackles and breathing phase events (inspiration/expiration). Therefore, we propose an event detection approach with spectral features and bidirectional gated recurrent neural networks (BiGRNNs).

Objective: In this paper, we accurately detect the state-sequence first heart sound (S1)-systole-second heart sound (S2)-diastole, i.e., the positions of S1 and S2, in heart sound recordings.
