Abstract: Four crackle detection algorithms were implemented based on selected techniques proposed in the literature. The algorithms were tested on a set of lung sounds and their performance was assessed in terms of sensitivity (SE), accuracy (PPV) and their harmonic mean (F index). The reference annotation data for calculating these indices were obtained through agreement by majority between independent annotations made by three health professionals on the same set of lung sounds. Agreement by majority of the four algorithms afforded more than 7% performance improvement over the best individual algorithm.
