Cough Classification Method with Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients and Gaussian-type Evaluation Function

Abstract

In recent years, more and more people are becoming sensitive to coughs due to the spread of COVID-19. The type and frequency of cough can be used to determine the condition of the disease. Because conventional cough classification methods classified into just cough / non cough sounds, we are now developing a new classification method for several types of coughs from natural sound resources. In this paper, we proposed an evaluation function with Mel-Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients and Gaussian function.
