Database of vocal samples of human emotions
Hlavica, Michal ; Přinosil, Jiří (referee) ; Atassi, Hicham (advisor)
In this bachelor work is analyzed theory of emotions, how emotions arise and how they are physiologically expressed by human body. How these physiological expressions and emotions reflect into the human speech. Then is described process of creating of speech and basic prosodic and acoustic parameters relevant for research. Theory of creating of databases is described here as well, which is quality ground for database itself. The database is also part of this thesis and they are records cut from television programmes and serials. The next very important issue is description of software tool for subjective evaluating of databases, which was created as a part of this thesis. It was created in C++ language with help by compiler Builder C++ . Also a short analysis of exemplary records for every emotion is done here. This analysis deals with basic frequency, intensity and first three formants.

Multilingual analysis of human emotional states
Rendek, Tomáš ; Koula, Ivan (referee) ; Atassi, Hicham (advisor)
This work deals with the properties of the speech signal. At the beginning it introduces a process of generation of the speech. Then, it covers the prosodic features of the speech, which represent a related characteristic of emotions. It defines an emotion itself, as well as the basic features and parameters of the human speech. For the analysis we use the program called Praat. As it is an unknown program, we devote a part of the work to it, which acquaints us with its advantages. The next part of this paper comprises also two enclosed databases containing records of particular emotional states of human. These databases were created and collected for Slovak and German language. However, none of them contain spontaneous material. Next, the work concerns a concept of the neural networks. It regards it as a possible realization of recognizing of emotional characteristics. The initial analysis presents large number of gained features, out of which only the best twelve were selected on the basis of geometric separability. These features are distinct for both sexes, as well as for both nationalities. Consequently, they are used for training with a neural network. The work concludes by summarizing of the results discussing the successfulness with recognition of emotional states. It also gives possible reasons which lead to degradation of their successful classifying. The thesis contains a CD with all the partial and ultimate results, and files with records for Slovak and German language.

Neural networks in speaker classification
Svoboda, Libor ; Atassi, Hicham (referee) ; Míča, Ivan (advisor)
The content of this work is focused on the neural network per speaker recognition. The work deals with problems of processing speech signal and there are introduction some types of neural network. The part of work was made database of records from speakers with have various sex and ages. The train and test group was made from the database. For classifier were suggested afterwards. One of them was nominated on base Gaussian mixture model and three of them were nominated on neural. This system was tested and analyzed on the basis of age, gender and both criterions each other at the end. Attention is focused on choice suitable feature in each mission of classification at the same time. At the end of work are introduced results of analysis for individual groups and features. The most suitable features are diagnosed from given mission of classification and the most prosperous classifier.

Identification of persons via voice imprint
Mekyska, Jiří ; Atassi, Hicham (referee) ; Smékal, Zdeněk (advisor)
This work deals with the text-dependent speaker recognition in systems, where just a few training samples exist. For the purpose of this recognition, the voice imprint based on different features (e.g. MFCC, PLP, ACW etc.) is proposed. At the beginning, there is described the way, how the speech signal is produced. Some speech characteristics important for speaker recognition are also mentioned. The next part of work deals with the speech signal analysis. There is mentioned the preprocessing and also the feature extraction methods. The following part describes the process of speaker recognition and mentions the evaluation of the used methods: speaker identification and verification. Last theoretically based part of work deals with the classifiers which are suitable for the text-dependent recognition. The classifiers based on fractional distances, dynamic time warping, dispersion matching and vector quantization are mentioned. This work continues by design and realization of system, which evaluates all described classifiers for voice imprint based on different features.

Social Network Analysis using methods of pattern recognition
Križan, Viliam ; Burget, Radim (referee) ; Atassi, Hicham (advisor)
Diplomová práca sa zaoberá rozpoznávaním emócií z textu v sociálnych sieťach. Práca popisuje súčasné metódy extrakcie príznakov, používané lexikóny, korpusy a klasifikátory. Emócie boli rozpoznávané na základe klasifikátoru, netrénovaného na anotovaných dátach z mikroblogovacej siete Twitter. Výhodou použitia služby Twitter, bolo geografické vymedzenie dát, ktoré umožňuje sledovanie zmien emócií populácie v rôznych mestách. Prvým prístupom klasifikácie bolo vytvorenie Baseline algoritmu, ktorý používal jednoduchý lexikón. Pre zlepšenie klasifikácie sme v druhom bode použili komplexnejší SVM klasifikátor. SVM klasifikátory, extrakcie a selekcie príznakov boli použité z dostupnej Python knižnice Scikit. Dáta pre natrénovanie klasifikátoru boli zhromažďované z oblasti USA, a to s pomocou vytvorenej aplikácie. Klasifikátor bol natrénovaný na dátach, označených pri ich zhromažďovaní - bez manuálnej anotácie. Boli použité dve rôzne implantácie SVM klasifikátorov. Výsledné klasifikované emócie, v rôznych mestách a dňoch, boli zobrazené v podobe farebných značiek na mape.

Computer analysis of sport matches
Židlík, Pavel ; Balík, Miroslav (referee) ; Atassi, Hicham (advisor)
This work deals with the possibility of a fast football match analysis from audio part of record with the possibility of implementation of some methods for other than football matches as well. The first intention was concentrated on detection of whiz of the soccer whistle that has specific frequency in its specter, which is out of common speech frequency. After detection harmonic frequency , the attention was focused on the definition of whiz meaning. Referee was helpful with the issue as he informed me about the number of whiz styles and provided me with referential samples for whiz classification. Neural network with back propagation was used for definition of whiz meaning. Another subject for detection of important moments of the match was concentration on the commentator’s basic tone. In case the commentator is really excited with the match, his basic speech tone automatically intensifies with every important action of the game. Analysis of commentator’s intensified basic speech tone was realized in this work too. Also the national hymns of teams playing against each other are a significant moment of the match. That is why detection of a hymn became another subject of analysis. Advantages of MFCC were used to obtain audio signal feature, from which 20 coefficients were gained. These were used as an entrance for classifier based on neural network with back propagation. For easy usage of these methods a graphic user interface with possibility of well-arranged look on gained results and also with possibility of replaying chosen section was created.
