Abstract

The emergence of the COVID-19 virus has placed the planet before one of the worst pandemics in 100 years. Early detection of the virus and vaccination have become the main weapons in the fight against the virus. In terms of detection, numerous alternatives have been proposed over the last one and a half years, including the use of artificial intelligence techniques. In this paper we propose the use of such techniques for virus detection using cough. The development of a low-cost device that incorporates the classification model has been proposed, facilitating its use anywhere without the need for connectivity.
