Automated Cough Assessment on a Mobile Platform

Figure 8

Screenshots of the ADAM application showing live capture and processing of audio data. The top traces are time-domain audio waveforms and the bottom traces indicate the presence of coughs. The left screenshot shows a sequence of coughs being recognized while the right screenshot shows some example speech being discounted. This is a demonstration mode used for debugging that is normally inaccessible to patients; hence the interface is somewhat rough. The total length of audio represented is 6 seconds in each screenshot. The middle number at the upper-left is the actual cough count which is determined by finding the instances where the last cough state is followed by the first state of any model in the grammar.
