Abstract: By 2030, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is expected to become one of the top three causes of death and a leading contributor to illness globally. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a debilitating respiratory disease and lung ailment caused by smoking-related airway inflammation, leading to breathing difficulties. Our COPD Healthcare Monitoring System for COPD Early Detection addresses this critical need by leveraging advanced Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) technologies. Unlike previous studies that predominantly rely on image datasets alone, our advanced monitoring system utilizes both image and text datasets, offering a more comprehensive approach. Importantly, we manually curated our dataset, ensuring its uniqueness and reliability, a feature lacking in existing literature. Despite the utilization of popular models like nnUnet, Cx-Net, and V-net by other papers, our model outperformed them, achieving superior accuracy. XGBoost led with an impressive 0.92 score. Additionally, deep learning models such as VGG16, VGG19, and ResNet50 delivered scores ranging from 0.85 to 0.89, showcasing their efficacy in COPD detection. By amalgamating these techniques, our system revolutionizes COPD care, offering real-time patient data analysis for early detection and management. This innovative approach, coupled with our meticulously curated dataset, promises improved patient outcomes and quality of life. Overall, our study represents a significant advancement in COPD research, paving the way for more accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment strategies.
