Abstract
This paper presents a locally recurrent globally feedforward fuzzy neural network, with internal feedback, that performs the task of separation of lung sounds, obtained from patients with pulmonary pathology. The filter is a novel generalized Takagi-Sugeno-Kang fuzzy model, where the consequent parts of the fuzzy rules are Block-Diagonal Recurrent Neural Networks. Extensive experimental results, regarding the lung sound category of squawks, are given, and a performance comparison with a series of other fuzzy and neural filters is conducted, underlining the separation capabilities of the proposed filter.
