Abstract: Coughing and shortness of breath are typical symptoms in people suffering from COPD, asthma, and COVID-19 conditions. Separate studies have shown that coughing and respiratory health parameters, respectively, can be sensed from a conversational speech recording using deep learning techniques. This paper looks into joint sensing of coughing events and the breathing pattern during natural speech. We introduce an algorithm and demonstrate its performance in realistic recordings. We observed sensitivity of 92.4% and 91.6% for cough detection and breath event detection, respectively. Clinical Relevance: Joint sensing of coughing events and respiratory parameters gives a more holistic picture of the respiratory health of a patient which can be very useful for future telehealth services.
