Research of speech features quantifying diadochokinetic (DDK) tasks
Kukučka, Peter ; Smékal, Zdeněk (referee) ; Mekyska, Jiří (advisor)
Speech processing methods were studied to calculate parameters of pacient with Parkinon's disease. Main focus of this work is to examine diadochokinetic (DDK) tests. Algorithm for parameters extraction was proposed. It works in more parts. DC is removed from speech signal, preemphasis aplicated. Envelope of input signal is calculated, peaks of syllables are detected. Parameters and statistical results of Mann-Whitney U~test are calculated from detected peaks. Proposed algorithm is implemented in Matlab.

Application of statistical analysis of speech in patients with Parkinson's disease
Bijota, Jan ; Mžourek, Zdeněk (referee) ; Galáž, Zoltán (advisor)
This thesis deals with speech analysis of people who suffer from Parkinson’s disease. Purpose of this thesis is to obtain statistical sample of speech parameters which helps to determine if examined person is suffering from Parkinson’s disease. Statistical sample is based on hypokinetic dysarthria detection. For speech signal pre-processing DC-offset removal and pre-emphasis are used. The next step is to divide signal into frames. Phonation parameters, MFCC and PLP coefficients are used for characterization of framed speech signal. After parametrization the speech signal can be analyzed by statistical methods. For statistical analysis in this thesis Spearman’s and Pearson’s correlation coefficients, mutual information, Mann-Whitney U test and Student’s t-test are used. The thesis results are the groups of speech parameters for individual long czech vowels which are the best indicator of the difference between healthy person and patient suffering from Parkinson’s disease. These result can be helpful in medical diagnosis of a patient.

Wilcoxon two-sample test
Šlampiak, Tomáš ; Omelka, Marek (advisor) ; Jurečková, Jana (referee)
In this work we present two-sample Wilcoxon statistic test. It is explained which parameter of data could be tested. Using knowledge of projection of random variables there is shown the derivation of the asymptotic distribution under the null hypothesis. We derive two versions of test, first of them supposes a shift model, while the other one just assumes that observations consist of two independent samples with continuous distributions. Finally, we deduce the behaviour of both tests from simulations, especially the impact on the first version when there is assumed no shift model.
