Deep learning with 3D-second order difference plot on respiratory sounds

Publication date: August 2018 Source:Biomedical Signal Processing and Control, Volume 45 Author(s): Gokhan Altan, Yakup Kutlu, Adnan Özhan Pekmezci, Serkan Nural The second order difference plot (SODP) is a nonlinear signal analysis method that visualizes two consecutive data points for many types of biomedical signals. The proposed method is based on analysing quantization of 3D-space which is originated using three consecutive data points in signal. The obtained 3D-SODP space was segmented into 3–10 spaces using octants, spheres and cuboid polyhedrons of which centroids are at the origin. Lung sound is an indispensable tool for respiratory and cardiac diseases. The study is focused on classifying the lung sounds from at risk level and the interior level of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The COPD is one of the most deadliest and common respiratory diseases which come into existence as a consequence of smoking. The smokers for a few years are qualified as at risk level of COPD (COPD-0). The 12 channels of lung sounds from the RespiratoryDatabase@TR were utilized in the analysis of the proposed 3D-SODP quantization method. The lung sounds are auscultated synchronously from posterior and anterior sides of subjects using two digital stethoscopes by a pulmonologist clinician in Antakya State Hospital, Turkey. Deep Belief Networks (DBN) algorithm was preferred in the classification stage. It has a greedy layer-wise pre-training which is based on restricted ...
