Abstract: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by airflow limitation and the spirometry is one of the tests that can be used to detect such disease. However there is a great problem related to the different ways of interpreting the values provided by spirometric devices, regarding different guidelines and reference values. Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) can be used to help with tasks of diagnosis as that. This work presents the modeling and analysis of three ANN models to classify subjects with COPD, based on different sets of variables: a set of observed measures from spirometry and a set of interpreted values according to the guideline proposed by the American Thoracic Society. The results shown that it is possible to achieve a good accuracy in the diagnosis of COPD using ANNs, besides these features set conducted the COPD identification problem to a nearly linearly separable classification problem.
