Annotation
Information about the basic principles and possibility of the application of the neural informative technology for the signal processing are the main topic. The lectures are devoted to the introduction into the artificial neural networks (NN) theory and applications, to the choice and the optimisation of the structures, the choice of the data, and to the solutions of the classification. The neural network applications at the speech and image processing are investigated in detail. Some neural network applications in the biomedical engineering and hardware realization of the SOM are described. The applications are o focused to EEG and ECG processing, also to possibilities of applications ANN at physiotherapy,
Study targets
Students acquire real experiences with the Neural Network Toolboxu from MATLAB for their project applications with MLNN and SOM. Our goal is the possibility to the familiarize with the perspective topics currented in the foreign countries. Our aim is also help to students with diploma work topic choice. The signal processing by artificial neural networks (normal or pathological speech and emotion analyses, recognition and synthesis) will be study.
