Online control of evaluation algorithms of the image applied to identification of deglutition function]

Comprehensive software and hardware have been developed for the processing of biosignals. Such automatic signal processing, however not only has advantages, but also drawbacks. The question as to the reliability of the evaluation algorithm arises when the signal is modified, in the presence of interindividual differences, and in particular when noise is superimposed. This is of great interest for long-term recording when the original signal can no longer be inspected visually. The aim of our work was to display the signals on the screen of a monitor simultaneously with lines marking the points (start, end, extreme value, etc.) processed by the specific signal processing algorithm. The program package permits the on-line recording and monitoring of signals, the parallel processing and marking of detected events on the monitor, as well as storage of the parameters extracted. It is a very effective tool for developing, improving and monitoring of algorithms and their efficiency for signal processing.
