In order to clearly understand the signal, it is found that frequency content of the signal is well understood. For the analysis and processing of breathing sound which is recorded by the sensory audio reader (sensor), the Short Time Fourier Transform and wavelet transform is applied to it. And the programs were developed in MATLAB. Short time Fourier transform (STFT) is a Fourier related transform which is used to determine the sinusoidal frequency and phase content of the signal which changes over time. The STFT method is used to analyze the non-stationary signal i.e., it has the property that changes with time. Through a moving window process the longer length signal is divided in to shorter segment of equal length and Fourier transform is computed for each shorter segment signal …show more content…
It divides continuous time function in to wavelet. The CWT is defined as follows, X(a,b;x(t),φ(t)=1/√a ∫_(-∞)^∞▒〖x(t) φ^* 〗 ((t-b)/a)dt Where, * denote the complex conjugate Ѱ(t) continuous function in both time and frequency domain called as mother wavelet The wavelet type may also affect the value of the coefficients. By continuously varying the values of the scale parameter a, and the position parameter b, the CWT coefficients X (a, b) can be obtained. By multiplying each coefficient with the scale and shifted wavelet yields the constituents wavelet of the original signal. Normally the output X(a, b) is a real valued function when the mother wavelet is complex, the complex mother wavelet convert the CWT to a complex valued function. Comparing the signal to the wavelet at various positions and scales a function with two variable is obtained. The 2-D representation of the 1-D signal create redundancy i.e. ., the signal which is no longer useful for the analysis. The mother wavelet is the small wave, which is the prototype for generating other window function. The main two difference between STFT and CWT
Executive Summary- Allround is the leading medical product for cold in the OTC market. It is the most frequent purchase with a high conversation ratio, though the retention ratio has been decreasing, along with market share. Some competitors have introduced new products, and Allround is slowly waning having reached maturity. Therefore, the OCM Marketing team has developed a long term Marketing mix strategy until 10th period.
According to Smithson, Walmart can expand its markets to new and emerging markets especially in the third world countries, which can significantly increase its revenues. Secondly, the company can reform is employment practices and improve the quality standard and in doing so, attract more customers and improve its brand image. On the other hand, the company faces threats such as the rising healthy lifestyle trend I that the company in most cases does not provide customers with healthy goods. At the same time, the company can capitalize on this aspect and increase its revenues. Aggressive competition from other discount retailers such as Target creates a great threat to the company (Smithson, 2015).
Strengths for Duquesne University would be that it is nationally ranked number 115. This is a number that can beat many competitors and creates benefits for those that attend. Classes that have fewer than twenty students is 40.9% and classes that have fifty or more students is only at 9%.. (http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/duquesne-university-3258/rankings). Duquesne is located in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania and is known to be one of the top places to live in the country. Pittsburgh is considered the most livable and resilient. There is a young crowd that could be an interest for young adults, also this city is considered to be the third safest cities in the states (https://fitt.co/pittsburgh/pittsburgh-best-city/). Religious values are what many people look for to keep that connect they have with their beliefs, having these values instilled in the curriculum could be a benefit view for parents and students.

At any point in the air near the source of sound, the molecules are moving backwards and forwards, and the air pressure varies up and down by very small amounts. The number of vibrations per second is called the frequency which is measured in cycles per second or Hertz (Hz). The pitch of a note is almost entirely determined by the frequency: high frequency for high pitch and low for low .
Human voice is an expressive musical instrument as people use their own voices to perform pieces or songs with or without any other instruments. If the voice is damaged to a serious stage, it can be lost forever. Therefore, vocal health is important to singers to take care their voices. In the following discussion we will discuss what the vocal health is, why it is relevant to contemporary singing from vocal anatomy, physiology and voice function.
In time domain analysis, SDNN, (standard deviation of all normal sinus RR ) an index of overall Heart Rate Variability, RMSSD (root-mean-square of the successive normal sinus RR interval) and percentage of differences between adjacent normal RR intervals exceeding 50 milliseconds (pNN50%) are studied. RMSSD and pNN50 shows greater correlation with parasympathetic nervous activity. In frequency domain analysis, spectral estimates of RR intervals is done by integrating the power as Total Power ( TP) from 0.04 to 0.40 Hz, Low frequency power(LF) from 0.04 to 0.15 Hz, HF (high frequency) power from 0.15 to 0.40 Hz .Power contained in VLF band is not calculated because of its dubious physiologic significance.

The ear has three basic functions. The first is the most obvious, the filtration and analysis of sound by a part of the ear called the cochlea. This function consists of two parts: hearing and listening. Hearing is a passive process and we have limited abilities to improve it. Listening, ho...
The voice is our primary mean of communication and expression. We rarely last more than a few minutes without its use whether it is talking to someone else or humming quietly to ourselves. We can use the voice artistically in many ways. For example, singing carries the rhythm and melody of speech. It creates patterns of pitch, loudness, and duration that tie together syllables, phrases and sentences. We use the voice for survival, emotion, expression, and to reflect our personality. The loss of the voice is a severe curtailment to many professions. It is affected by general body condition which is why we need to consider the location of the larynx and how that organ produces voice. Surprisingly, this complex biological design is mechanical in function. It is mechanical to the point that when it has been excised from a cadaver and mounted on a laboratory bench, the larynx produces sounds resembling normal phonation. (Titze, Principles)
as Hertz (Hz). The sounds of speech are in the range of 250 Hz to 4000
The SWOT analysis is a useful tool for identifying our personal strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats to our plans and goals. According to a “Fuel My Motivation” article (2010), this analysis considers internal influences that can positively or negatively affect our ability to achieve our goals. The internal factors are our strengths and weaknesses. Also considered are opportunities and threats, which are external influences that can have a positive or negative impact on the ability to achieve our goals. I will share how the self-assessment instruments and self-exercises in this course have contributed to assessing and understanding my strengths and weaknesses. I will also discuss techniques I will use to leverage my strengths and understand my weaknesses. In addition, I will consider opportunities that I can take advantage of and the threats that can possibly impede my progress.
Wavelet transform is efficient tool for image compression, Wavelet transform gives multiresolution image decomposition. which can .be exploited through vector quantization to achieve high compression ratio. For vector quantization of wavelet coefficients vectors are formed by either coefficients at same level, different location or different level, same location. This paper compares the two methods and shows that because of wavelet properties, vector quantization can still improve compression results by coding only important vectors for reconstruction.
waves are further divided into two groups or bands such as very low frequency (
