Cough Event Prediction based on Spectral Features and SVM and KNN Machine learning using Triaxial Accelerometer data from Multiple body positions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cough is a major illness and needs to be tackled efficiently to manage respiratory distress and the long-term effects of respiratory problems. In this work an efficient method is proposed using the multi-band spectral features of triaxial accelerometer data which is recorded from different body positions is analyzed and this method reduces the computational complexity significantly. The measurements yield better results in the Y axis compared to the X and Z axes for chest and stomach positions whereas for the ear position it is observed that Z axis produced a higher feature score for cough activity prediction. The classification was performed using SVM and KNN and the best performance observed was in the ear position with a maximum accuracy of 99<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">%</sup>. Unlike prior works that use computationally intensive methods such as CNN the proposed method uses Spectral features and SVM and KNN from worn Triaxial Accelerometer signals.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
