چکیده

— This report describes the use of a support vector machines with a novel kernel, to determine the breathing rate and inhalation duration of a fire fighter wearing a Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus. With this information, an incident commander can monitor the firemen in his command for exhaustion and ensure timely rotation of personnel to ensure overall fire fighter safety.

A New Algorithm for Voice Activity Detection Based on Wavelet Packets (RESEARCH NOTE)

Speech constitutes much of the communicated information; most other perceived audio signals do not carry nearly as much information. Indeed, much of the non-speech signals maybe classified as ‘noise’ in human communication. The process of separating conversational speech and noise is termed voice activity detection (VAD). This paper describes a new approach to VAD which is based on the Wavelet ...

Apnea Detection based on Respiratory Signal Classification

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common form of different types of sleep-related breathing disorders. It is characterized by repetitive cessations of respiratory flow during sleep, which occurs due to a collapse of the upper respiratory airway. OSA is majorly undiagnosed due to the inconvenient Polysomnography (PSG) testing procedure at sleep labs. This paper introduces an automated ap...

DETECTION AND MEASUREMENT OF ACETONE IN THE BREATH OF DIABETICS BY ION MOBILITY SPECTROMETRY METHOD

Background: The ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) is an analytical technique that is widely used due to its high sensitivity and speed for the detection of ionized molecules in gas phase and under atmospheric pressure. Breath analysis is a new method for obtaining information about person's clinical conditions that is considered by researchers. Human exhaled air contains a variety of components s...

Techniques for Apnoea Detection

Sleep apnoea is the most common form of different types of sleep-related breathing disorders. It is characterized by repetitive stoppage of respiratory flow during sleep. This paper discusses an approach towards identifying the presence of sleep apnoea based on the acoustic signal of respiration. Different techniques for apnoea detection are discussed in this paper. The characterization of brea...

An automated and reliable method for breath detection during variable mask pressures in awake and sleeping humans

Accurate breath detection is crucial in sleep and respiratory physiology research and in several clinical settings. However, this process is technically challenging due to measurement and physiological artifacts and other factors such as variable leaks in the breathing circuit. Recently developed techniques to quantify the multiple causes of obstructive sleep apnea, require intermittent changes...
