The patients with cardiovascular diseases undergo complex medical procedures, including medical imaging, blood biochemistry analysis, physical examination, etc. The digitization of information is an intensive process in e-health therefore, in this paper there are presented some methods to extract important data from medical records of patients suffering from coronary artery diseases organized in PDF files.
In this paper new simple formulas for identification of the time constant T and time delay τ of the First Order Lag Plus time Delay model (FOLPD) will be presented. FOLPD model is very useful e.g. for PID controller ...

The conventional heart rate measurement techniques using electrocardiogram, wrist belts and so on, are attached with some disadvantages like discomfort, irritation of the skin and even more. From this starting point various video based heart rate measurement techniques were developed in the last years. All of these techniques use video data of the human faces to extract information to estimate the heart rate of the person in front of the camera. Most of them work with the detection of minimal changes in the color spectrum of the recorded video data. With these extracted information and multiple concluding steps, they are able to estimate the heart rate of the person sitting in front of the camera. All of these approaches have some big disadvantages, they are only able to measure the heart rate of one person - and in a small number of cases up to three persons. So the main objective of this work is to adapt and enhance existing research approaches of processing visual biological signals. The focus is set on the design and deployment of a new system, which is able to process visual data as well as detect and localize human faces by using artificial neural networks and calculate each individuals heart rate from the processed data's information. For the first time in this research area, different scenarios with more than three observed participants are being analyzed to calculate the heart rate for each of them separately. It will be shown that by using the applied technical architecture and technologies, it is possible to deploy a comparable and qualitatively competitive system. In addition, the implemented system proves the feasibility of processing various faces' signals and calculating the respective heart rates simultaneously within an acceptable range of tolerance.

In this paper, we introduce a notion of so-called finite-step simulation functions for discrete-time control systems. In contrast to the existing notions of simulation functions, a finite-step simulation function does not need decay at each time step but after some finite numbers of steps. We show that the existence of such a function guarantees that the mismatch between output trajectories of the concrete and abstract systems lies within an appropriate bound. Using this relaxation, we develop a new type of small-gain conditions which are less conservative than those previously used for compositional construction of approximate abstractions of interconnected control systems. In particular, using finite-step simulation functions, it is possible to construct approximate abstractions, where stabilizability of each subsystem is not necessarily required. The effectiveness of our results is verified by an illustrative example.
Witness functions have recently been introduced in cryptographic protocols’ literature as a new powerful way to prove protocol correctness with respect to secrecy. In this paper, we extend them to the property of aut...

In this paper, the application of Reduced-Order Active Disturbance Rejection controller (RADRC) for processes with significant time delay is analysed. First, the analysis of the modified RADRC and its tuning method is presented. Then a practical verification for temperature control in the electric flow heater is shown. In practical studies, the superiority of RADRC over PI and PI with Smith predictor is presented.

In this paper, the possibility of using the virtual commissioning for developing the advanced controllers for example of electric flow heater is presented. First, based on the process measurement data, the virtual environment is prepared. Then, for selected advanced control algorithms, both virtual and real commissioning was carried out. The results are discussed in the paper and they demonstrate the impact of the applied commissioning method on the control performance provided by each of considered control algorithms.
