- 结合MFCC与CNN+GRU的混合模型分析听诊音
- 可识别6种肺病和5种心脏病,准确率高
- 部署在廉价嵌入式设备上,适合偏远地区
心肺疾病在全球范围内带来严峻的健康挑战,导致大量意外早逝。尽管病情严重,现有检测与治疗手段仍面临及时诊断困难的问题,尤其在偏远或医疗资源匮乏地区,依赖人工筛查存在显著局限。为此,本研究提出一种创新高效的AI模型,通过分析听诊声音实现心肺疾病的同步诊断。不同于昂贵的数字听诊器,该模型专为低功耗嵌入式设备设计,确保在欠发达地区具备可及性。模型采用MFCC特征提取与工程化处理,结合卷积神经网络(CNN)与门控循环单元(GRU)对低质听诊音频进行精准分析,可分类六种肺部疾病和五种心血管疾病。系统还生成数字音频记录,支持远程诊断。将低成本听诊器与高效AI模型集成于网页应用,实现实时分析,标志着向标准化远程医疗迈出了关键一步。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The increase in cardiac and pulmonary diseases presents an alarming and pervasive health challenge on a global scale responsible for unexpected and premature mortalities. In spite of how serious these conditions are, existing methods of detection and treatment encounter challenges, particularly in achieving timely diagnosis for effective medical intervention. Manual screening processes commonly used for primary detection of cardiac and respiratory problems face inherent limitations, increased by a scarcity of skilled medical practitioners in remote or under-resourced areas. To address this, our study introduces an innovative yet efficient model which integrates AI for diagnosing lung and heart conditions concurrently using the auscultation sounds. Unlike the already high-priced digital stethoscope, our proposed model has been particularly designed to deploy on low-cost embedded devices and thus ensure applicability in under-developed regions that actually face an issue of accessing medical care. Our proposed model incorporates MFCC feature extraction and engineering techniques to ensure that the signal is well analyzed for accurate diagnostics through the hybrid model combining Gated Recurrent Unit with CNN in processing audio signals recorded from the low-cost stethoscope. Beyond its diagnostic capabilities, the model generates digital audio records that facilitate in classifying six pulmonary and five cardiovascular diseases. Hence, the integration of a cost effective stethoscope with an efficient AI empowered model deployed on a web app providing real-time analysis, represents a transformative step towards standardized healthcare
