Subject: Methods of Electrophysiological Signals Analysis (17.AU503)

Type of studies	Title
Master Academic Studies	Computing and Control Engineering (Year: 1, Semester: Winter)

General information:

Category	Scientific-professional
Scientific or art field	Biomedicinsko inženjerstvo Automatic Control and System Engineering
ECTS	6

Students should gain knowledge about analysis and processing of electrophysiological signals.

The acquired knowledge is used in future work and education.

Classification of signals. Biomedical signal acquisition and processing. The origin of the biomedical signals. Time domain analysis and processing. Random processes, elements of probability theory, correlation, crosscorrelation, autocorrelation. Frequency domain analysis and processing, time - frequency analysis. Fourier transform, discrete Fourier transform, FFT, short time Fourier transform, wavelet transform. Spectral analysis. Compression and automatic recognition. ECG signal processing (filtering, QRS complex detection, high resolution ECG, heart rate variability signal analysis...). ECG waveform generator and simulator. EEG signal analysis, separation of EEG frequency components, differential brain activity of the left and right hemispheres, nap and awake state recognition, methods for evoked potential analysis.

Lectures, computer practice, project assignments. Consultations. The colloquia are taken in written form and the exam is both written and oral, with the written part being prerequisite for the oral. The final grade is formed on the bases of achievements at the colloquia, the quality of homework assignments and the written and oral part of the exam.
