In this paper, we propose a maximum likelihood signal detection scheme for a generalized spatial modulation system that activates only a subset of transmit antennas among multiple antennas and transmits information through the indexes of active antennas as well as through the transmit symbols. The proposed maximum likelihood receiver extracts a set of candidate solutions based on their a posteriori probabilities to lower the computational load of the robust receiver under channel information errors. Then, the chosen candidate solutions are exploited to estimate the covariance matrix of effective noise. Simulation results show that the proposed maximum likelihood detection scheme achieves better error performance than a receiver that does not take into account the channel information errors. It is also seen that it reduces the computational complexity with the same bit error rate performance as the conventional robust maximum likelihood receiver.

In this paper, we propose a low-complexity robust maximum likelihood (ML) receiver for generalized spatial modulation. The proposed receiver performs the transmit antenna partition to lower the computational loads. After we divide the transmit antenna combinations into two parts, one of which is "the likely TAC part," and the other of which is "the unlikely TAC part", based on the minimum mean square error (MMSE) filtering output. We first perform the maximum likelihood detection only in the likely TAC part. Then we evaluate the reliability of the solution found in the first search, and based its reliability we decide whether we continue the search in the unlikely TAC part. This partitioned search strategy maintains the performance of the conventional robust maximum likelihood receiver and simultaneously lowers computational loads. Through simulation, we found that our newly-proposed receiver achieves considerable gains over the conventional robust ML detector in terms of the computational loads while providing almost the same performance.

A generalized linear mixed model is an extension of a generalized linear model that allows random effect as well as provides flexibility in developing a suitable model when observations are correlated or when there are other underlying phenomena that contribute to resulting variability. We describe maximum likelihood estimation methods for logistic regression models that include random effects - the Laplace approximation, Gauss-Hermite quadrature, adaptive Gauss-Hermite quadrature, and pseudo-likelihood. Applications are provided with social science problems by analyzing the effect of mental health and life satisfaction on volunteer activities from Korean welfare panel data; in addition, we observe that the inclusion of random effects in the model leads to improved analyses with more reasonable inferences.

In this paper, we consider the quasi maximum likelihood(quasi-ML) detector which uses antenna arrays in asynchronous time-varing channels. It is shown that the proposed quasi-ml detector can be regarded as a beamformer followed by a decorrelator: a method based on the eigendecomposition of the correlation matrix of the inverse-filtered signal is proposed to estimate the channel vectors. We also show that the proposed algorithm estimates the channel vector within small mismatch loss in severe propagation environment through computer simulations.

In this paper, we propose robust estimators for the frequency offset of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing in non-Gaussian noise environments. We first propose a maximum-likelihood (ML) estimator in non-Gaussian noise modeled as a complex isotropic Cauchy process, and then, we present a simpler suboptimal estimator based on the ML estimator. From numerical results, it is demonstrated that the proposed estimators not only outperform the conventional estimators, but also have a robustness in non-Gaussian noise environments.

In spatial, desired target direction of arrival estimation is to find a incidental signal direction on receive antennas. In this paper, we were an estimation a desired target direction of arrival using maximum likelihood method. Direction of arrival estimation method estimated a desired target calculating the maximum likelihood sensitivity using singular value decomposition above threshold signals among receive signals in maximum likelihood method. Through simulation, we were analysis a performance to compare existing method and proposal method. In direction of arrival estimation, proposed method is effectivity to decrease processing time because it is not doing an eigen decomposition in direction of arrival estimation, and desired target correctly estimated. We showed that proposal method improve more target estimation than general method.

스테레오스코픽 3D 입체영상은 좌/우 영상의 시차(視差)를 이용하여 시청자로 하여금 2D 영상에서 느낄 수 없었던 가상의 입체감을 느낄 수 있도록 한다. 이러한 가상의 입체감은 주로 좌/우 영상의 수평시차를 통해서 구현되며, 수평시차의 많고 적음에 의하여 피사체의 원근(遠近)이 조절된다. 시차가 지나치게 작을 경우 3D 입체영상은 2D와 다를 바 없이 평면으로 보이거나, 피사체의 볼륨감이 사라져서 종이인형들이 단순히 층을 나뉘어서 배열된 것처럼 보이게 된다. 반대로 시차가 지나치게 클 경우 좌/우 영상은 하나로 융합되어 입체감을 형성하지 못하고 이중상으로 관측되게 된다. 이렇듯 3D 입체영상에서 수평시 차의 크기는 핵심적인 기능을 수행하고 있음에도, 프로그램 제작시 적절한 시차를 결정하는 판단기준이 부족하며 최대 시차에 대한 기준도 모호하여, 촬영자나 컴퓨터 그래픽스 작업자의 감(感)에 의하여 입체영상 콘텐츠 제작이 이루어지고 있어, 고품질 3D 영상 제작의 장애요인이 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 NPP(Native Pixel Parallax) 계산을 바탕으로 입체영상의 시차는 스크린 크기별로 달라질 수 있음을 살펴보고, 좌/우 영상의 시차가 가상깊이로 환산되는 과정을 분석하여, 3D 방송에 적합한 최대 시차를 제안하고자 한다.

This paper presents hybrid classification method to improve the performance of satellite images classification by combining Bayesian maximum likelihood classifier, ISODATA clustering and fuzzy C-Means algorithm. In this paper, the training data of each class were generated by separating the spectral signature using ISODATA clustering. We can classify according to pixel's membership grade followed by cluster center of fuzzy C-Means algorithm as the mean value of training data for each class. Bayesian maximum likelihood classifier is performed with prior probability by result of fuzzy C-Means classification. The results shows that proposed method could improve performance of classification method and also perform classification with no concern about spectral signature of the training data. The proposed method Is applied to a Landsat TM satellite image for the verifying test.
