Abstract | Discontinuous lung sounds (DLS), also known as crackles, are abnormal sounds produced by different pulmonary pathologies (PP) whose thoracic spatial distribution and prevalence are relevant for diagnosis purpose. Recently, DLS imaging has been proposed to help diagnose and follow-up PP where automated recognition of DLS is meaningful. The present study focuses on the automated selection of independent components (ICs) associated with DLS. Extraction of ICs information for clustering by k-means is achieved in two ways: (1) forming features vectors (FVs) containing the kurtosis, entropy and sparsity of each IC or (2) by applying mutual information (MI) or Euclidean distance (ED) to all ICs. Next, silhouette index is computed to estimate the number of necessary clusters (C). Afterward, to detect just the clusters containing ICs of DLS a selection index is proposed. Finally, to estimate the number of DLS per ICs in each selected cluster a time-variant AR modeling is applied; the estimated number is shown in conjunction with the 2D-ICs spatial distribution. The methodology is applied to simulated and real cases; DLS imaging results are also compared against clinical auscultation. The results showed that the automated selection via FVs is promising to imaging DLS. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
