SYSTEM AND METHOD TO MEASURE, ANALYZE, AND MODEL PULMONARY FUNCTION AND DISEASE UTILIZING TEMPORAL, SPATIAL, AND CONTEXTUAL DATA

摘要

An information processing system, computer readable storage medium, and methods for analyzing the airflow related health of a person. A method includes obtaining an audio sample of a person's verbal communication, obtaining geographic information of the person, querying a remote server based on the geographic information, and obtaining additional information from the remote server, the additional information being related to the geographic information, and extracting contours of amplitude change from the at least one audio sample over a period of time, the contours of amplitude change corresponding to changes in an airflow profile of the person. The method further includes correlating the contours of amplitude change with periodic episodes typical of airflow related health problems, and determining, based at least on the additional information, whether the contours of amplitude change result from at least one local environmental factor related to the geographic information.

1. A method for analyzing airflow related health of a person, the method comprising:
obtaining at least one audio sample of a person's verbal communication; obtaining geographic information of the person, the geographic information being associated with the at least one audio sample of the person's verbal communication; querying at least one additional source of information based on the geographic information, and as a result of the querying obtaining additional information from the at least one additional source of information, the additional information being related to the geographic information; extracting contours of amplitude change from the at least one audio sample over a period of time, the contours of amplitude change corresponding to changes in an airflow profile of the person; correlating the contours of amplitude change with periodic episodes typical of airflow related health problems; and determining, based at least on the additional information, whether the contours of amplitude change result from at least one local environmental factor related to the geographic information.
