Tracheal sound reliability for wheeze data collection method: a review
(IEEE Conference Publications, 2012)The purpose of this review is to present the reliability of sound obtained from trachea for wheeze data collection method. Wheeze is the most common sign used in the detection of airway obstruction. Airway obstruction such ... -
Towards a realistic medical simulator using virtual environments and haptic interaction
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2003)This paper presents our experience towards the conception of a virtual reality medical simulator coupled with haptic interaction aimed at training surgeons. This area of research has a long history and a wide variety of ... -
Towards a realistic dental simulator with haptic interface
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2008)We present our experience pertaining to the development of a dental simulator interfaced with an haptic device. Such a system can enable dental trainees to be trained with a patients’ virtual set of teeth. To provide better ... -
Towards a complete intra-operative CT-free navigation system for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2004)Computer assisted navigation and biomechanical modeling have made surgical simulation a new domain of research in the last decade. One possible operation that could benefit from this progress is the Anterior Cruciate ... -
The application of ultrasonic transducer in bacteria growth monitoring system
(IEEE Conference Publications, 2010)The development of bacteria growth monitoring system is described in this paper. The system uses ultrasonic sensor as the main component which able to differentiate various concentration caused by bacteria growth. LED bar ... -
Target distance estimation using monocular vision system for mobile robot
(IEEE Conference Publications, 2011)Mobile robot with vision could be useful for many applications and purposes. However, the vision system needs to be robust, effective, robust and fast to achieve on its goal. Somehow it needs stereo vision system to estimate ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Recent survey of automated rehabilitation systems using EMG biosensors
(Society of Physical Therapy Science, 2011)[Purpose] In this paper, we present a survey of some recently developed techniques in the field of automatic rehabilitation systems assisted by electromyography (EMG) biosensors and their application in physically disabled ... -
Real-time robot-human interaction by tracking hand movement & orientation based on morphology
(IEEE Conference Publications, 2011)In this paper we present a method that allows real time tracking on a hand in 3D space and notes its orientation and position accordingly, with the goal of ultimately tying it to a robotic spherical wrist as well as the ... -
Physically realistic simulation of large deformations using LEM for interactive applications
(IEEE Conference Publications, 2002)This paper presents the modification to LEM - Long Element Method to simulate large deformations. We are interested us deformable objects filled with some incompressible fluid By large deformations, we mean deformations ... -
Monocular vision system development for depth estimation
