A practical approach to ion selective electrodes performance in static and dynamic conditions
TL;DR: The paper presents a practical approach to ion selective electrodes (ISE) with a multisensor virtual measurement system that acquires the voltage of the sensor channels, controls the ISE dynamic test and performs the data processing using a software implemented in LabVIEW.
Proceedings Article
Artificial neural network approach for obesity-hypertension classification
TL;DR: An artificial neural network based model for objective classification of obesity-hypertension is presented and the results show that the neural network classifier is consistent with the standard criteria suggested by the obesity and hypertension guidelines.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Characterization of noise generators: automated measuring system for the determination of the probability distribution and autocorrelation functions
TL;DR: A computer based measuring system dedicated to the determination of both the probability distribution function and autocorrelation function of a noise signal, which is particularly suited not only to calculate the power spectral density of a signal, but also to recover periodic signals buried in noise.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Adaptive analog-to-digital conversion using self-dithering in data acquisition systems
TL;DR: A dynamic self-adjusted sampling rate and dithering are proposed in order to improve the signal-to-noise relation and measurement accuracy and Simulation and experimental results are presented to evaluate the digitizing system performance gains when the proposed solution is applied.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Laser based smart displacement sensor
TL;DR: A displacement measuring system based on one optical emitter, two optical sensors and on a smart structure used for sensor data processing around the PIC16F877 8-bit microcontroller that powers the sensors, acquires data from the sensors and performs the intelligent processing based on a neural algorithm.
