| Abstract: | |
| Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the deadly diseases and the test or diagnosis of TB through different methods are too expensive. The clinics need expensive equipment and trained experts to interpret results situation like these. In our project, we tried to grab symptoms of TB like cough and by analyzing the cough sound we will do the detection and predict whether person is having TB or not using ML. | |
| What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ? | |
| TB is highly epidemic in Pakistan. According to the latest WHO estimations, the incidence, prevalence and mortality of TB in Pakistan are 230 per 100 000, 310 per 100 000 and 39 per 100 000, respectively. This indicates 410 000 incident cases of TB and 69 000 TB deaths in Pakistan every year. | |
| Who needs it ? How many would benefit ? | |
| Our target will be the rural area people become they have limited resources available and TB becomes more deadly if it is lately diagnosed so Diagnosing tuberculosis by cough sound will resolve this issue. | |
| How will the solution works | |
| The main challenging issue is the data repository of cough utterances, once we will achieve this, the second step will to train our model to detect and recognize the positive and negative patients through their voices. | |
| Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different | |
| Currently there are no competitor locally or internationally it is an emerging and unique idea that is under consideration. | |
