Emotional State Recognition Based on Speech Signal Analysis
Čermák, Jan ; Atassi, Hicham (referee) ; Smékal, Zdeněk (advisor)
The thesis is focused on the emotional states classification in the Matlab program, using neural networks and the classifier which is based on a combination of Gaussian density functions. It deals with the speech signal processing; the prosodic and spectral signs and the MFCC coefficients were extracted from the signal. The work also deals with the quality evaluation of individual signs of which the most suitable were chosen in order to provide the correct classification of emotional states. In order to identify the emotional states, two different methods were used. The first method of classification was the use of neural networks with differently selected parameters, and the second method was the use of the Gaussian mixture model (GMM). In both methods, a database of emotional utterances was divided into the training group and the test group. The testing was based on a method independent of the speaker. The work also includes the comparison of individual analyzed methods as well as the representation and comparison of the results. The conclusion comprises a proposition for the best parameters and the best classifier for the recognition of the speaker’s emotional state.

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.

Neural networks for EMC modeling of small airplanes
Koudelka, Vlastimil ; Goňa,, Stanislav (referee) ; Raida, Zbyněk (advisor)
This thesis deals with neural modeling of electromagnetic field inside small aircrafts, witch can contain composite materials in their construction. Introduction to neural networks and its application in EMC of small airplanes is discussed in the first part of the text. In the second part of this thesis we design a simple EM model of small airplane. The airplane is simulated by two parallel dielectric layers (the left-hand side wall and the right hand side wall of the airplane). The layers are put into a rectangular metallic waveguide terminated by the absorber in order to simulate the illumination of the airplane by the external wave (both of the harmonic nature and pulse one). Numerical analyses are performed to search the relations between the distribution of an electromagnetic field inside the aircraft and electric parameters of model walls. The results of numerical analyses are used to train two types of neural network. In this way we can obtain accurate continuous model of electromagnetic field inside the aircraft. For the comparison with neural networks a multi-dimensional cubic spline interpolation is provided also. Neural classifiers are also investigated. We use them for classification of imaginary composite materials in terms of EMC. The nearest neighbour algorithm is applied as a classic approach to problem of classification.

Traffic Signs Detection and Recognition
Číp, Pavel ; Honec, Peter (referee) ; Horák, Karel (advisor)
The thesis deals with traffic sign detection and recongnition in the urban environment and outside the town. A precondition for implementation of the system is built-in camera, usually in a car rear-view mirror. The camera scans the scene before the vehicle. The image data are transfered to the connected PC, where the data are transformation to information and evalutations. If the sign was detected the system is visually warned the driver. For a successful goal is divided into four separate blocks. The first part is the preparing of the image data. There are color segmentation with knowledge of color combination traffic signs in Czech Republic. Second part is deals with shape detection in segmentation image. Part number three is deals with recognition of inner pictogram and its finding in the image database. The final part is the visual output of displaying founded traffic signs. The thesis has been prepader so as to ensure detection of all relevant traffic signs in three basic color combinations according to existing by Decree of Ministry of Transport of Czech Republic. The result is the source code for the program MATLAB. .

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.

Adaptive data compression by neural networks
Kučera, Michal ; Přinosil, Jiří (referee) ; Koula, Ivan (advisor)
Point of the work is using of neural networks for the datecompression. This brings new possibilities as by lossless as lossy compression. Draft of a few compress algorithm show the behaviour, advantages and weak points of these systems. As the solution we use knowledge of the layered perceptron Network and we try by the change of the structure and subparameters to teach such network to compress the data, according to our entry requirement. These networks have also advantages, which are meanwhile impediment to the using practically. The goal of this is to try some algorithms, look into their characteristics and posibility of the using. Then propose next posibility solutions and upgrading of these algorithms.

Application of neural networks in telecommunications
Šulák, Michal ; Koula, Ivan (referee) ; Kacálek, Jan (advisor)
This Master’s Thesis consists of description of current routing protocols and routers, basic principles of neural networks and their interpretation in connection with the use for routing in data networks and telecommunications networks. In the thesis I focused on neural networks, which use energetic functions to find solution stabled states and their use for data routing. I produced the application software to test and find suitable variables for each function. This application counts the shortest path and is able to change variables to reach the best solution of stabled state of neural network. These solutions are compared with other functions that are usually used in nowadays systems for data network routing.
