Respiratory sound classification using cepstral features and support vector machine
(IEEE Conference Publications, 2013)Respiratory sound analysis provides vital information of the present condition of the Lungs. It can be used to assist medical professionals in differential diagnosis. In this paper, we intend to distinguish between normal ... -
Review article: Introducing the lung sounds
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2012-06-18)Lung is one of the most crucial part in human body. Ever since the invention of stethoscope, lung auscultation had been very important ever since. By listening to lung sound, lung diseases can be detected and monitored ... -
A review of computer-generated simulation in the pedagogy of cataract surgery training and assessment
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2013)Virtual reality simulation is no longer an unusual term due to its application in aviation, industry, medicine, and military. The limitation of animal model in wet-lab training has necessitated the discovery of new training ... -
Review of emotion recognition in stroke patients
(Karger AG, Basel., 2013)Objective: Patients suffering from stroke have a diminished ability to recognize emotions. This paper presents a review of neuropsychological studies that investigated the basic emotion processing deficits involved in ... -
Significance of the electromyographic analysis of the upper limb muscles of cricket bowlers: Recommendations from studies of overhead-throwing athletes
(World Scientific Publishing Company., 2014-08)The purpose of this study was twofold: (i) to review the existing literature on electromyographic (EMG) analysis of the upper limb muscles of present overhead-throwing (OT) athletes during throwing and of cricket bowlers ... -
Simulation of nonholonomic trajectory for a car-like mobile platform using dubins shortest path model
(IEEE Conference Publications, 2011)Vehicles that move autonomously have received a good deal of attention where various top agencies have been the major sponsor of research in this field. Natural disaster such as earthquake, typhoon and tsunami would be ... -
A software prototype based emotional impairments detection in neurological disorders patients using wireless EEG signals
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)School of Mechatronic Engineering, 2014-05)Social communication and the ability to respond emotional signals are essential for meaningful Interpersonal Iinteractions -
A study of back-propagation and radial basis neural network on EMG signal classification
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IEEE), 2009-03-23)Neural networks are ubiquitous tool for classification. This paper presents a study of classifying EMG signal patterns using back-propagation and radial basis neural networks. Since the pattern of the EMG signal elicited ... -
Surface electromyographic analysis of the biceps brachii muscle of cricket bowlers during bowling
(Springer Netherlands, 2014-01)Cricket bowling generates forces with torques on the upper limb muscles and makes the biceps brachii (BB) muscle vulnerable to overuse injury. The aim of this study was to investigate whether there are differences in the ... -
Surface electromyography assessment of the biceps brachii muscle between the endplate region and distal tendon insertion: Comparison in terms of gender, dominant arm and contraction
(Society of Physical Therapy Science, 2013-01)[Purpose] In some earlier studies of electromyography (EMG) of the upper arm biceps brachii (BB), researchers preferred to place the electrodes on the middle of the biceps muscle to analyze its function. This study ... -
Surface electromyography for assessing triceps brachii muscle activities: A literature review
(Elsevier B.V., 2013)The goal of this review was to summarise the scientific findings of research conducted on the triceps brachii muscle using surface electromyography. To achieve this goal, we searched through several articles available from ... -
A survey on automated wheeze detection systems for asthmatic patients
(Association of Basic Medical Sciences of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, 2012)The purpose of this paper is to present an evidence of automated wheeze detection system by a survey that can be very beneficial for asthmatic patients. Generally, for detecting asthma in a patient, stethoscope is used for ... -
A survey on team strategies in robot soccer: team strategies and role description
(Springer Science+Business Media B.V, 2013)This survey paper starts with a basic explanation about robot soccer and its systems, then will focus on the strategies that have been used by previous researchers. There is a time-line of described robot soccer strategies, ... -
A systematic review of phacoemulsification cataract surgery in virtual reality simulators
