<![CDATA[Lung sound is a biological signal that can be used to determine the health level of the respiratory tract. Various digital signal processing techniques have been developed for automatic classification of lung sounds. Entropy is one of the parameters used to measure the biomedical signal complexity. Multiscale entropy is introduced to measure the entropy of a signal at a particular scale range. Over time, various multiscale entropy techniques have been proposed to measure the complexity of biological signals and other physical signals. In this paper, some multiscale entropy techniques for lung sound classification are compared. The result of the comparison indicates that the Multiscale Permutation Entropy (MPE) produces the highest accuracy of 97.98% for five lung sound datasets. The result was achieved for the scale 1-10 producing ten features for each lung sound data. This result is better than other seven entropies. Multiscale entropy analysis can improve the accuracy of lung sound classification without requiring any features other than entropy.]]>
