Recognizing patterns in lung sounds is crucial to detecting and monitoring respiratory diseases. Current techniques for analyzing respiratory sounds demand domain experts and are subject to interpretation. Hence an accurate and automatic respiratory sound classification system is desired. In this work, we took a data-driven approach to classify abnormal lung sounds. We compared the performance using three different feature extraction techniques, which are short-time Fourier transformation (STFT), Mel spectrograms, and Wav2vec, as well as three different classifiers, including pre-trained ResNet18, LightCNN, and Audio Spectrogram Transformer. Our key contributions include the bench-marking of different audio feature extractors and neural network based classifiers, and the implementation of a complete pipeline using STFT and a fine-tuned ResNet18 network. The proposed method achieved Harmonic Scores of 0.89, 0.80, 0.71, 0.36 for tasks 1-1, 1-2, 2-1 and 2-2, respectively on the testing sets in the IEEE BioCAS 2022 Grand Challenge on Respiratory Sound Classification.
