    Pressure Injuries are chronic wounds that are formed due to the constriction of the soft tissues against bone prominences. In order to assess these injuries, the medical personnel carry out the evaluation and diagnosis using visual methods and manual measurements, which can be inaccurate and may generate discomfort in the patients. By using segmentation techniques, the Pressure Injuries can be extracted from an image and accurately parameterized, leading to a correct diagnosis. In general, these techniques are based on the solution of differential equations and the involved numerical methods are demanding in terms of computational resources. In previous work, we proposed a technique developed using toroidal parametric equations for image decomposition and segmentation without solving differential equations. In this paper, we present the development of a mobile application useful for the non-contact assessment of Pressure Injuries based on the toroidal decomposition from images. The usage of this technique allows us to achieve an accurate segmentation almost 8 times faster than Active Contours without Edges (ACWE) and Dynamic Contours methods.We describe the techniques and the implementation for Android devices using Python and Kivy. This application allows for the segmentation and parameterization of injuries, obtain relevant information for the diagnosis and tracking the evolution of patient's injuries. © 2018 - IOS Press and the authors.

    Recognition and regionalization of emotions in the arousal-valence plane
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015-01-01) Bustamante, P.A.; Lopez Celani, N.M.; Perez, M.E.; Quintero Montoya, O.L.; Bustamante, P.A.; Lopez Celani, N.M.; Perez, M.E.; Quintero Montoya, O.L.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ciencias; Modelado Matemático
    The emotion recognition systems have become important for the diversity of its applications. Several methodologies have been proposed based on how emotions are reflected in biological systems, such as facial expressions, the activity of the nervous system or the prosody of voice. The detection of emotions by voice processing is an approach that involves a noninvasive procedure that produces results with an acceptable rate of detection. In this work an algorithm for features extraction was developed, that efficiently classify different emotional states. Thus, emotions that have not been trained can be associated with a trained emotion both belonging to the same region of the valence-arousal plane.

    A simple but efficient voice activity detection algorithm through Hilbert transform and dynamic threshold for speech pathologies
    (IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2016-01-01) Ortiz, P.D.; Villa, L.F.; Salazar, C.; Quintero, O.L.; Ortiz, P.D.; Villa, L.F.; Salazar, C.; Quintero, O.L.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ciencias; Modelado Matemático
    A simple but efficient voice activity detector based on the Hilbert transform and a dynamic threshold is presented to be used on the pre-processing of audio signals. The algorithm to define the dynamic threshold is a modification of a convex combination found in literature. This scheme allows the detection of prosodic and silence segments on a speech in presence of non-ideal conditions like a spectral overlapped noise. The present work shows preliminary results over a database built with some political speech. The tests were performed adding artificial noise to natural noises over the audio signals, and some algorithms are compared. Results will be extrapolated to the field of adaptive filtering on monophonic signals and the analysis of speech pathologies on futures works.
