METHOD FOR COUNTING COUGHS BY ANALYZING SOUND SIGNAL, SERVER PERFORMING SAME, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM

A method for counting coughs is provided. The method includes determining a plurality of time points in the sound signal, extracting a plurality of cropped signals from the sound signal by cropping portions of the sound signal, wherein each of the cropped portions corresponds to a signal with a predetermined time length from each of the determined time points in the sound signal, transforming each of the plurality of cropped signals into a spectrogram image, thereby forming a plurality of spectrogram images, determining whether each of the plurality of spectrogram images represents a cough by inputting each of the plurality of spectrogram images into a cough determination model, wherein the cough determination model is a classification model trained to classify the inputted spectrogram image into a cough or non-cough, determining a plurality of tags according to results determined by the cough determination model.
