Abstract


In this paper the authors will try to discuss the applicability of Wigner-Ville Distribution for the digital analysis of auscultatory sounds. First of all, thte issues related to computer aided diagnosis are presented. Next, the methodology of research is shown and subsequently, the types of sounds are described. Another element of this work is the presentation of issues related to the digital signal processing including the Short-Time Fourier Transform(STFT), Wigner-Ville Distribution (WVD), and its variation- Smoothed Wigner-Ville Distribution (SWVD). This paper summarizes the results obtained using STFT and SWVD, showing SWVD more useful to detect the type of auscultatory sounds.
