Assessing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease risk based on exhalation and cough sounds.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a progressively worsening respiratory condition, severely impacts patient quality of life. Early risk assessment can improve treatment outcomes and lessen healthcare burdens. How...

Moving beyond the noise: geospatial modelling of urban sound environments in a sub-Saharan African city.

Scientific reports
Cities encompass a mixture of artificial, human, animal, and nature-based sounds, which through long and short-term exposures, can impact on physical and mental health. Yet, most epidemiological research has focused on only transportation noise, leav...

Develop intelligent waste bin prototype based on fusion feature recognition of sounds and RGB images.

Waste management (New York, N.Y.)
Sorting municipal solid waste (MSW) at the source is a critical first step toward achieving a circular economy. Previous research has primarily focused on vision-based intelligent algorithms for MSW classification using red-green-blue (RGB) images. S...

Annotated dataset of simulated voiding sound for urine flow estimation.

Scientific data
Sound-based uroflowmetry is a non-invasive test emerging as an alternative to standard uroflowmetry, estimating voiding characteristics from the sound generated by urine striking water in a toilet bowl. The lack of labeled flow sound datasets limits ...

Optimal feature selection and model explanation for reef fish sound classification.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences
Fish produce a wide variety of sounds that contribute to the soundscapes of aquatic environments. In reef systems, these sounds are important acoustic cues for various ecological processes. Artificial intelligence methods to detect, classify and iden...

Generation of ultrasonic and audible sound waves for the automatic classification of packaging waste in reverse vending machines.

Waste management (New York, N.Y.)
Reverse vending machines (RVMs) are essential for promoting waste sorting at the source by offering incentives for recycling. However, current RVMs, which primarily rely on expensive sensors such as barcode scanners and computer vision systems, face ...

Decoding Poultry Welfare from Sound-A Machine Learning Framework for Non-Invasive Acoustic Monitoring.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Acoustic monitoring presents a promising, non-invasive modality for assessing animal welfare in precision livestock farming. In poultry, vocalizations encode biologically relevant cues linked to health status, behavioral states, and environmental str...

Honeybee colony soundscapes: Decoding distance-based cues and environmental stressors.

Ecotoxicology and environmental safety
Honey bees play a crucial role in agricultural productivity and ecological stability, yet their interactions with environmental stressors, particularly volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and pollutants, pose significant challenges to their cognitive f...

Elephant Sound Classification Using Deep Learning Optimization.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Elephant sound identification is crucial in wildlife conservation and ecological research. The identification of elephant vocalizations provides insights into the behavior, social dynamics, and emotional expressions, leading to elephant conservation....

Enhancing bowel sound recognition with self-attention and self-supervised pre-training.

PloS one
Bowel sounds, a reflection of the gastrointestinal tract's peristalsis, are essential for diagnosing and monitoring gastrointestinal conditions. However, the absence of an effective, non-invasive method for assessing digestion through auscultation ha...
