Research on lung sound classification model based on dual-channel CNN-LSTM algorithm

ulmonary diseases have a significant impact on human health and life safety, and abnormalities in the lungs are a direct response to lung diseases. Establishing an effective lung sound classification model that can assist in diagnosis is of great significance for electronic auscultation.In addressing the issue of lung sound signal classification, this study introduces a deep learning classification model based on a dual-channel CNN-LSTM algorithm. Initially, Mel-scale Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) are employed for feature extraction from the dataset, transforming lung sound signals into Mel spectrograms. On this foundation, a dual-channel algorithm classification model is constructed, with parallel Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) modules. The CNN module is designed to capture spatial dimension features of the input data, while the LSTM module focuses on temporal dimension features. These two feature sets are fused together, enabling the model to classify lung sounds and thereby assisting in diagnosing pulmonary diseases for healthcare practitioners. This experiment used the ICBHI2017 Challenge Lungs dataset and obtained 5054 pieces of data through data augmentation and sampling techniques.The results show that the accuracy, recall, and F1 score of this model reach 99.01%, 99.13%, and 0.9915, respectively, significantly superior to other models, highlighting its practical application value.
