o exame para o diagnóstico de doenças da laringe é usualmente realizado através da videolaringoscopia e videoestroboscopia. A maioria das doenças na laringe provoca mudanças na voz do paciente. Diversos índices têm sido propostos para avaliar quantitativamente a qualidade da voz. Também foram propostos vários métodos para classificação automática de patologias da laringe utilizando apenas a voz do paciente. Este trabalho apresenta a aplicação da Transformada Wavelet Packet e do algoritmo Best Basis [COI92] para a classificação automática de vozes em patológicas ou normais. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que é possível classificar a voz utilizando esta Transformada. Tem-se como principal conclusão que um classificador linear pode ser obtido ao se empregar a Transformada Wavelet Packet como extrator de características. O classificador é linear baseado na existência ou não de nós na decomposição da Transformada Wavelet Packet. A função Wavelet que apresentou os melhores resultados foi a sym1et5 e a melhor função custo foi a entropia. Este classificador linear separa vozes normais de vozes patológicas com um erro de classificação de 23,07% para falsos positivos e de 14,58%para falsos negativos.

A análise do sono está baseada na polissonogra a e o sinal de EEG é o mais importante. A necessidade de desenvolver uma análise automática do sono tem dois objetivos básicos: reduzir o tempo gasto na análise visual e explorar novas medidas quantitativas e suas relações com certos tipos de distúrbios do sono. A estrutura do sinal de EEG de sono está relacionada com a chamada microestrutura do sono, que é composta por grafoelementos. Um destes grafoelementos é o fuso de sono (spindles). Foi utilizado um delineamento transversal aplicado a um grupo de indivíduos normais do sexo masculino para testar o desempenho de um conjunto de ferramentas para a detecção automática de fusos. Exploramos a detecção destes fusos de sono através de procura direta, Matching Pursuit e uma rede neural que utiliza como "input"a transformada de Gabor (GT). Em comparação com a análise visual, o método utilizando a transformada de Gabor e redes neurais apresentou uma sensibilidade de 77% e especi cidade de 73%. Já o Matching Pursuit, apesar de mais demorado, se mostrou mais e ciente, apresentando sensibilidade de 81,2% e especi cidade de 85.2%.

O processamento de imagens tem sido amplamente utilizado para duas tarefas. Uma delas é o realce de imagens para a posterior visualização e a outra tarefa é a extração de informações para análise de imagens. Este trabalho apresenta um estudo sobre duas teorias multi-escalas chamadas de espaço de escala e transformada wavelet, que são utilizadas para a extração de informações de imagens. Um dos aspectos do espaço de escalas que tem sido amplamente discutido por diversos autores é a sua base (originalmente a gaussiana). Tem se buscado saber se a base gaussiana é a melhor, ou para quais casos ela é a melhor. Além disto, os autores têm procurado desenvolver novas bases, com características diferentes das pertencentes à gaussiana. De posse destas novas bases, pode-se compará-las com a base gaussiana e verificar onde cada base apresenta melhor desempenho. Neste trabalho, foi usada (i) a teoria do espaço de escalas, (ii) a teoria da transformada wavelet e (iii) as relações entre elas, a fim de gerar um método para criar novas bases para o espaço de escalas a partir de funções wavelets. O espaço de escala é um caso particular da transformada wavelet quando se usam as derivadas da gaussiana para gerar os operadores do espaço de escala. É com base nesta característica que se propôs o novo método apresentado. Além disto, o método proposto usa a resposta em freqüência das funções analisadas. As funções bases do espaço de escala possuem resposta em freqüência do tipo passa baixas. As funções wavelets, por sua vez, possuem resposta do tipo passa faixas Para obter as funções bases a partir das wavelets faz-se a integração numérica destas funções até que sua resposta em freqüência seja do tipo passa baixas. Algumas das funções wavelets estudadas não possuem definição para o caso bi-dimensional, por isso foram estudadas três formas de gerar funções bi-dimensionais a partir de funções unidimensionais. Com o uso deste método foi possível gerar dez novas bases para o espaço de escala. Algumas dessas novas bases apresentaram comportamento semelhante ao apresentado pela base gaussiana, outras não. Para as funções que não apresentaram o comportamento esperado, quando usadas com as definições originais dos operadores do espaço de escala, foram propostas novas definições para tais operadores (detectores de borda e bolha). Também foram geradas duas aplicações com o espaço de escala, sendo elas um algoritmo para a segmentação de cavidades cardíacas e um algoritmo para segmentação e contagem de células sanguíneas.

Este trabalho apresenta um sistema de classificação de voz disfônica utilizando a Transformada Wavelet Packet (WPT) e o algoritmo Best Basis (BBA) como redutor de dimensionalidade e seis Redes Neurais Artificiais (ANN) atuando como um conjunto de sistemas denominados “especialistas”. O banco de vozes utilizado está separado em seis grupos de acordo com as similaridades patológicas (onde o 6o grupo é o dos pacientes com voz normal). O conjunto de seis ANN foi treinado, com cada rede especializando-se em um determinado grupo. A base de decomposição utilizada na WPT foi a Symlet 5 e a função custo utilizada na Best Basis Tree (BBT) gerada com o BBA, foi a entropia de Shannon. Cada ANN é alimentada pelos valores de entropia dos nós da BBT. O sistema apresentou uma taxa de sucesso de 87,5%, 95,31%, 87,5%, 100%, 96,87% e 89,06% para os grupos 1 ao 6 respectivamente, utilizando o método de Validação Cruzada Múltipla (MCV). O poder de generalização foi medido utilizando o método de MCV com a variação Leave-One-Out (LOO), obtendo erros em média de 38.52%, apontando a necessidade de aumentar o banco de vozes disponível.

Originally aimed at operational objectives, the continuous measurement of well bottomhole pressure and temperature, recorded by permanent downhole gauges (PDG), finds vast applicability in reservoir management. It contributes for the monitoring of well performance and makes it possible to estimate reservoir parameters on the long term. However, notwithstanding its unquestionable value, data from PDG is characterized by a large noise content. Moreover, the presence of outliers within valid signal measurements seems to be a major problem as well. In this work, the initial treatment of PDG signals is addressed, based on curve smoothing, self-organizing maps and the discrete wavelet transform. Additionally, a system based on the coupling of fuzzy clustering with feed-forward neural networks is proposed for transient detection. The obtained results were considered quite satisfactory for offshore wells and matched real requisites for utilization

Post dispatch analysis of signals obtained from digital disturbances registers provide important information to identify and classify disturbances in systems, looking for a more efficient management of the supply. In order to enhance the task of identifying and classifying the disturbances - providing an automatic assessment - techniques of digital signal processing can be helpful. The Wavelet Transform has become a very efficient tool for the analysis of voltage or current signals, obtained immediately after disturbance s occurrences in the network. This work presents a methodology based on the Discrete Wavelet Transform to implement this process. It uses a comparison between distribution curves of signals energy, with and without disturbance. This is done for different resolution levels of its decomposition in order to obtain descriptors that permit its classification, using artificial neural networks

In last decades, neural networks have been established as a major tool for the identification of nonlinear systems. Among the various types of networks used in identification, one that can be highlighted is the wavelet neural network (WNN). This network combines the characteristics of wavelet multiresolution theory with learning ability and generalization of neural networks usually, providing more accurate models than those ones obtained by traditional networks. An extension of WNN networks is to combine the neuro-fuzzy ANFIS (Adaptive Network Based Fuzzy Inference System) structure with wavelets, leading to generate the Fuzzy Wavelet Neural Network - FWNN structure. This network is very similar to ANFIS networks, with the difference that traditional polynomials present in consequent of this network are replaced by WNN networks. This paper proposes the identification of nonlinear dynamical systems from a network FWNN modified. In the proposed structure, functions only wavelets are used in the consequent. Thus, it is possible to obtain a simplification of the structure, reducing the number of adjustable parameters of the network. To evaluate the performance of network FWNN with this modification, an analysis of network performance is made, verifying advantages, disadvantages and cost effectiveness when compared to other existing FWNN structures in literature. The evaluations are carried out via the identification of two simulated systems traditionally found in the literature and a real nonlinear system, consisting of a nonlinear multi section tank. Finally, the network is used to infer values of temperature and humidity inside of a neonatal incubator. The execution of such analyzes is based on various criteria, like: mean squared error, number of training epochs, number of adjustable parameters, the variation of the mean square error, among others. The results found show the generalization ability of the modified structure, despite the simplification performed

Embedded systems are widely spread nowadays. An example is the Digital Signal Processor (DSP), which is a high processing power device. This work s contribution consist of exposing DSP implementation of the system logic for detecting leaks in real time. Among the various methods of leak detection available today this work uses a technique based on the pipe pressure analysis and usesWavelet Transform and Neural Networks. In this context, the DSP, in addition to do the pressure signal digital processing, also communicates to a Global Positioning System (GPS), which helps in situating the leak, and to a SCADA, sharing information. To ensure robustness and reliability in communication between DSP and SCADA the Modbus protocol is used. As it is a real time application, special attention is given to the response time of each of the tasks performed by the DSP. Tests and leak simulations were performed using the structure of Laboratory of Evaluation of Measurement in Oil (LAMP), at Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)

Wavelet coding is an efficient technique to overcome the multipath fading effects, which are characterized by fluctuations in the intensity of the transmitted signals over wireless channels. Since the wavelet symbols are non-equiprobable, modulation schemes play a significant role in the overall performance of wavelet systems. Thus the development of an efficient design method is crucial to obtain modulation schemes suitable for wavelet systems, principally when these systems employ wavelet encoding matrixes of great dimensions. In this work, it is proposed a design methodology to obtain sub-optimum modulation schemes for wavelet systems over Rayleigh fading channels. In this context, novels signal constellations and quantization schemes are obtained via genetic algorithm and mathematical tools. Numerical results obtained from simulations show that the wavelet-coded systems derived here have very good performance characteristics over fading channels

For this, it was proposed the construction of two antennas in microstrip structure with resonance frequency at 2.44 GHz The problem becomes relevant because of the diseases osteometabolic reach a large portion of the population, men and women. With this method, the signal is classified into two groups: tissue mass with bony tissues with normal or low bone mass. For this, techniques of feature extraction (Wavelet Transform) and pattern recognition (KNN and ANN) were used.

Digital signal processing (DSP) aims to extract specific information from digital signals. Digital signals are, by definition, physical quantities represented by a sequence of discrete values and from these sequences it is possible to extract and analyze the desired information. The unevenly sampled data can not be properly analyzed using standard techniques of digital signal processing. This work aimed to adapt a technique of DSP, the multiresolution analysis, to analyze unevenly smapled data, to aid the studies in the CoRoT laboratory at UFRN. The process is based on re-indexing the wavelet transform to handle unevenly sampled data properly. The was efective presenting satisfactory results

Wavelet coding has emerged as an alternative coding technique to minimize the fading effects of wireless channels. This work evaluates the performance of wavelet coding, in terms of bit error probability, over time-varying, frequency-selective multipath Rayleigh fading channels. The adopted propagation model follows the COST207 norm, main international standards reference for GSM, UMTS, and EDGE applications. The results show the wavelet coding s efficiency against the inter symbolic interference which characterizes these communication scenarios. This robustness of the presented technique enables its usage in different environments, bringing it one step closer to be applied in practical wireless communication systems

There has been an increasing tendency on the use of selective image compression, since several applications make use of digital images and the loss of information in certain regions is not allowed in some cases. However, there are applications in which these images are captured and stored automatically making it impossible to the user to select the regions of interest to be compressed in a lossless manner. A possible solution for this matter would be the automatic selection of these regions, a very difficult problem to solve in general cases. Nevertheless, it is possible to use intelligent techniques to detect these regions in specific cases. This work proposes a selective color image compression method in which regions of interest, previously chosen, are compressed in a lossless manner. This method uses the wavelet transform to decorrelate the pixels of the image, competitive neural network to make a vectorial quantization, mathematical morphology, and Huffman adaptive coding. There are two options for automatic detection in addition to the manual one: a method of texture segmentation, in which the highest frequency texture is selected to be the region of interest, and a new face detection method where the region of the face will be lossless compressed. The results show that both can be successfully used with the compression method, giving the map of the region of interest as an input
