Automatic classification of normal and abnormal cardiac sounds by combining features based on wavelet transform and capstral coefficients extracted from PCG signals (Research Article)
Cardiac sounds are produced by the mechanical activities of the heart and provide useful information about the function of the heart valves. Due to the transient and unstable nature of the heart's sound and the limitation of the human hearing system, it is difficult to categorize heart sound signals based on what is heard from a stethoscope. Therefore, providing an automated algorithm for prima...

متن کاملClassification of emotional speech using spectral pattern features
Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) is a new and challenging research area with a wide range of applications in man-machine interactions. The aim of a SER system is to recognize human emotion by analyzing the acoustics of speech sound. In this study, we propose Spectral Pattern features (SPs) and Harmonic Energy features (HEs) for emotion recognition. These features extracted from the spectrogram ...
متن کاملAn Automatic Wavelet Selection Scheme for Heart Sounds Denoising
The phonocardiograms (PCGs), recording of heart sounds, have many advantages over traditional auscultation in that they may be replayed and analyzed for spectral and frequency information. PCG is not a widely used diagnostic tool as it could be. One of the major problems with PCG is noise corruption. Many sources of noise may pollute a PCG signal including lung and breath sounds, environmental ...
متن کاملClassification of Endometrial Images for Aiding the Diagnosis of Hyperplasia Using Logarithmic Gabor Wavelet
Introduction: The process of discriminating among benign and malignant hyperplasia begun with subjective methods using light microscopy and is now being continued with computerized morphometrical analysis requiring some features. One of the main features called Volume Percentage of Stroma (VPS) is obtained by calculating the percentage of stroma texture. Currently, this feature is calculated ...
