The study aims to assess the detection performance of a rapid primary screening technique for COVID-19 that is purely based on the cough sound extracted from 2200 clinically validated samples using laboratory molecular testing (1100 COVID-19 negative and 1100 COVID-19 positive). Results and severity of samples based on quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR), cycle threshold, and patient lymphocyte numbers were clinically labeled. Our suggested general methods consist of a tensor based on audio characteristics and deep-artificial neural network classification with deep cough convolutional layers, based on the dilated temporal convolution neural network (DTCN).
