Image codecs based on the wavelet transform
Kiska, Tomáš ; Říha, Kamil (referee) ; Rajmic, Pavel (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis describes issues of wavelet compression, which is today already in common use mainly at work with digital photographs or other pictures. Using these algorithm you can copy informations and save efficiently. There are main image formats and types of compression suitable for editing pictures desribed in this thesis. So the focus is on discrete wavelet transform, which uses so-called wavelets, the Haar´s and Daubechies wavelet are the best known of all. Next chapter of this work explores colour spaces, in which can be a picture displayed. In case of coding and encoding it is model RGB and YCbCr. Not least there is mentioned term of picture decomposition. At the end, there are image codecs EZW, SPITH and EBCOT which are describe in detail.

Degree of Parkinson's disease estimation based on acoustic analysis of speech
Ustohalová, Iveta ; Kiska, Tomáš (referee) ; Galáž, Zoltán (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the non-invasive analysis of progression of Parkinson´s disease using the acoustic analysis of speach. Hypokinetic dysarthria in connection with Parkinson´s disease as well as speech parameters are described in this work. Speech parameters are sorted according to the speech component they affect. The work uses the phonation of vowels "a" speech task as the most commonly used speech task in the field of pathological speech processing, because of its resistance to demographic and linguistic characteristics of the speakers. Based on obtained knowledge, in MATLAB development enviroment were created systém for UPDRS III scale estimation. The UPDRS III scale is based on subjective diagnosis given by the doctor. At first, one individual parameter is used for the UPDRS III scale value estimation. Then the feature selection using SFFS algorithm is applied to gain feature combination with minimal estimation errror. Attention i salso paid to correlation between individual symptoms and UPDSR III scale.

Acoustic analysis of sentences complicated for articulation in patients with Parkinson's disease
Kiska, Tomáš ; Smékal, Zdeněk (referee) ; Mekyska, Jiří (advisor)
This work deals with a design of hypokinetic dysarthria analysis system. Hypokinetic dysarthria is a speech motor dysfunction that is present in approx. 90 % of patients with Parkinson’s disease. Next there is described Parkinson's disease and change of the speech signal by this disability. The following describes the symptoms, which are used for the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (FCR, VSA, VAI, etc.). The work is mainly focused on parameterization techniques that can be used to diagnose or monitor this disease as well as estimate its progress. A protocol of dysarthric speech acquisition is described in this work too. In combination with acoustic analysis it can be used to estimate a grade of hypokinetic dysarthria in fields of faciokinesis, phonorespiration and phonetics (correlation with 3F test). Regarding the parameterization, new features based on method RASTA. The analysis is based on parametrization sentences complicated for articulation. Experimental dataset consists of 101 PD patients with different disease progress and 53 healthy controls. For classification with feature selection have selected method mRMR.
