Without the ECG reference signal, segmentation methods become naturally more complicated. In the hospital environment, the heart sounds collected from the patients through the stethoscope carry unrequired environmental sounds such as ambient noise, speech, wheezing, and friction. Besides, depending on the heart condition, noise like murmur is also included in these heart sounds. Discrete Wavelet Transform and Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) have been used as a hybrid solution for the filtering of the noise content of basic heart sounds. In order to determine S1-S2 locations, heart rate and systolic time intervals were predicted by using signal autocorrelation. As a result of this proposed algorithm, S1 and S2 sounds were detected with 98.19% precision and 98.52% recall for normal heart sounds, while S1 and S2 were detected with precision of 94.31% and recall of 96.92% for abnormal heart sounds.","PeriodicalId":217576,"journal":{"name":"2017 25th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"94 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122532306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This system takes tango dance patterns performed by human dancers as input and produces choreographies that are represented in 3 dimensional virtual environment. Dance figures obtained by motion capture system are segmented automatically and analyzed with regard to weight center to form the dance database. Choreographies are then created by combining compatible primitives and adapting them to each other while transforming them to match the song tempo. The system's efficiency is verified with tests using an array of songs having varying tempos as well as synthetic songs having constant tempo.","PeriodicalId":217576,"journal":{"name":"2017 25th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115219992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pathological issues that may exist on a person's voice often cannot be detected by a regular listener. Medical attention from a professional may be necessary to detect vocal pathologies. Analysis of the patients complaints and a perceptual evaluation performed by a doctor is one of the most common ways to diagnose a vocal condition. This method can be invasive, time consuming and expensive. Features of the voice can be extracted and utilized in a computer environment to make the same diagnosis which may increase the speed and accuracy of the diagnosis and decrease the cost. In this paper, a cloud application which collects vocal data in a database is proposed. With data mining and machine learning methods, a new tool has been developed to detect and diagnose vocal anomalies in patients. The effectiveness of the suggested platform has been demonstrated with a pathological detection and recognition application running in the server.","PeriodicalId":217576,"journal":{"name":"2017 25th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114361165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed method is decided whether BP decoder output converges to original data bits by observing only sign alterations of log-likelihood ratio (LLR) messages in BP decoder structure. Simulation results and complexity analyzes show that proposed method has low computational complexity and small average iteration amounts compared to conventional early termination methods in literature. In addition to this, the proposed method doesn't cause any performance degradation in BP decoder. The method can be easily applied to code families which can be decoded by BP algorithm such as low density parity check (LDPC) codes, polar codes and Raptor codes.","PeriodicalId":217576,"journal":{"name":"2017 25th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123876159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transfer function of the 3 axis gimbal system is obtained by linearly structured OE-Output Error model using experimentally obtained data under different external disturbance effects.

Moreover, an RT6002 substrate with 0.76 mm thickness was the raw material of the antenna. Eventually; this design was capable of acheiving a gain of 8.2 dB with a remarkable value of-15.2 dB for S11 in the manufactured antenna, for a Ku band frequency of 14.4 GHz as Vector Network Analyzer measures. As this design has a Ku band frequency, it could be used for satellite communications such as NASA's Tracking Data Relay Satellite, backhauls broadcasting, and vehicle speed detection.","PeriodicalId":217576,"journal":{"name":"2017 25th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124471603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
