A set of parameters to assess the objective quality of visualizations of a voxel based data set, produced using a ray caster, is proposed as a first step toward the evaluation of the overall quality of these visualizations.Results obtained using synthetic data and a simple implementation of a ray caster are presented. The final goal of this evaluation will be the computation of “c...
This paper describes a high quality speech coding system based in the ITU Recommendation G.722 “7 kHz audio coding within 64 kbit/s”. Provides a high-level description of the recommended algorithm and a brief discussion about the arithmetical choices, which have been made. Some performance results are provided. ; Este artigo descreve um sistema de codificação ...
In this paper we present the description of an articulatory speech synthesiser which is to be used as a tool for the study of speech production. The sound might be produced as the result of vocal tract configurations edited by the user. It also allows the study of the inverse problemthe estimation of a vocal tract configuration given a speech sound. ; Neste artigo descreve-se a im...
A case study corresponding to the visualization of an underground volume data, obtained by Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), is presented. This case study intended to show the interest for geophysic data interpretation provided by volume vizualization of this type of data and allowed a better understanding of the issues involved. ; Neste trabalho apresenta-se o estudo de um caso&nbs...
This paper reports the implementation of a coding system that includes the psychoacoustic aspects of the human ear to achieve compression of audio data while keeping the quality of the audio signal after the reconstruction. ; Este artigo descreve a implementação de um sistema de codificação que integra aspectos psico-acústicos do ouvido humano pa...
In this work we present an articulatory synthesiser which models the vocal tract apparatus with slowly varying physiological parameters (e.g. tongue body, lips, velum, etc). The articulatory distance model that is used was first developed by Mermelstein(l973).

In this paper, we describe an application to visualize biological events, particulary suited to neurophisiology environments. The application requirements are based on the poligraphic record. The application was developed using Object-Oriented techniques suported by Borland C++ compiler and its ObjectWindows library and Resource Workshop. ; Neste artigo descreve-se uma aplicação para visualiza&cc...
In this paper, we describe an arterial pressure monitoring system. The system, based on personal computer, adquires, processes and display the signals and results envolved on particular medical procedure. The system requirements were specified with the cooperation of the medical staff. The system’s software was developed using object programing techniques. ; Neste artigo &ea...
In this paper we describes an acquisition system to deal with biological signals. The system modularity and versatility allows its configuration to different environment (such as a neurophisiology laboratory). The system is also suited to test signal processing algorithms on the acquired or stored biological signals. ; Neste artigo apresentamos um sistema para aquisiç&atild...
This paper describes an integrated sleep analysis automatic system, meant to be used on a Neurophysiology Department, on clinical daily routine. In order to achieve modularity, expandibility and flexibility, the system was developed using the Object Oriented Desugn methodology. ; Este artigo descreve um sistema automático para a análise de exames neurofisiológicos ...
