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.

Cluster analysis in the field of pathological speech signal processing
Čapek, Karel ; Mžourek, Zdeněk (referee) ; Galáž, Zoltán (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the calculation of speech features that quantifies the degradation of speech production caused by the presence of certain speech pathology and the subsequent clasification of considered speech pathologies into several groups using the k-means algorithm. The purpose was to find the groups of pathologies that in spite of possible differences in the origin do affect phonation and articulation skills of the speakers and damage the quality of speech. 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. Furthermore, the preliminary analysis was applied to the featuresin order to select the features to best characterize the degradation of speech production. Finally, the selected features were used to find the resulting groups of pathologies using k-means algorithm.
