Acute Respiratory Insufficiency After Adenotonsillectomy
Adenotonsillectomy is one of the frequently performed surgical procedures in children and the most common complications of this procedure are bleeding and respiratory insufficiency. Here, we present a 20-month-old boy who was born prematurely.

Acoustic models of Brazilian Portuguese Speech based on Neural Transformers [PDF]
An acoustic model, trained on a significant amount of unlabeled data, consists of a self-supervised learned speech representation useful for solving downstream tasks, perhaps after a fine-tuning of the model in the respective downstream task. In this work, we build an acoustic model of Brazilian Portuguese Speech through a Transformer neural network ...

Robust Deep Learning Frameworks for Acoustic Scene and Respiratory Sound Classification [PDF]
This thesis focuses on dealing with the task of acoustic scene classification (ASC), and then applied the techniques developed for ASC to a real-life application of detecting respiratory disease. To deal with ASC challenges, this thesis addresses three main factors that directly affect the performance of an ASC system.
