We propose new rotation moment invariants based on multiresolution filter bank techniques. The multiresolution pyramid motivates our simple but efficient feature selection procedure based on the fuzzy C-mean clustering, combined with the Mahalanobis distance. The procedure verifies an impact of random noise as well as an interesting and less known impact of noise due to spatial transformations. The recognition accuracy of the proposed techniques has been tested with the preceding moment invariants as well as with some wavelet based schemes. The numerical experiments, with more than 30,000 images, demonstrate a tangible accuracy increase of about 3% for low noise, 8% for the average noise and 15% for high level noise.

본 논문에서는 wavelet 패킷의 직교성을 이용한 새로운 다중 통신 시스템을 구성하고 그 특성을 분석하였다. 유한에너지 신호공간 L$^2$(R)로부터 부분공간으로 신호를 분해할 수 있는 MRA(Multiresolution Analysis)의 기본개념과 이를 이용한 wavelet와 QMF(Quadrature Mirror Filter)와의 관계를 검토하였다. MRA의 개념을 보다 일반화한 신호의 wavelet 패킷 변환과 역변환을 실현하기 위한 알고리즘을 고찰하고 MRF(Multirate Filter Bank)를 이용하여 다중화 시스템을 설계하였다. 제안된 시스템은 구성이 간단하며 최대 이용자의 수와 정보 데이터의 전송율에 대한 유연성을 기대할 수 있음을 보였다.

Wavelet Transform is amenable to efficient algorithms. So wavelet transform was adopted many signal processing and communication applications. For example, the wavelet transform was adopted as the transform for JPEG2000. However, Wavelet has weakness about smoothness along the contours and limited directional information. Hence, recently, some new transforms have been introduced to take advantage of this property. So we use to other transform, called contourlet transform in compression. In this paper, we propose a new method for image compression based on the contourlet transform, which has been recently introduced. Contourlet transform has a good result about images with smooth contours. Moreover, Contourlet is feasible multiresolution and multidirection expansion using non-separable filter bank. This treatise shows a good image representation after compressing using contourlet transform.

In this paper, the new method to extract the features of iris signals is proposed; Multiresolution ICA (M-ICA) provides good properties to represent signals with time-frequency. The conventional methods were to use the technique of filter bank analysis, while ICA is unsupervised learning algorithm using high-order statistics. M-ICA could make use of strengths of learn- ing method and multiresolution. Also, we performed comparative studies of different feature extraction techniques applied to personal identification using iris pat- tern. To measure goodness of methods, we use Fisher’s discriminant ratio to quantify the class-separability of features generated by various techniques.

This paper proposes a sinusoidal modeling of polyphonic audio signals. Sinusoidal modeling which has been applied well to speech and monophonic signals cannot be applied directly to polyphonic signals because a window size for sinusoidal analysis cannot be determined over the entire signal. In addition, for high quality synthesized signal transient parts like attacks should be preserved which determines timbre of musical instrument. In this paper, a multiresolution filter bank is designed which splits the input signal into six octave-spaced subbands without aliasing and sinusoidal modeling is applied to each subband signal. To alleviate smearing of transients in sinusoidal modeling a dynamic segmentation method is applied to subbands which determines the analysis-synthesis frame size adaptively to fit time-frequency characteristics of the subband signal. The improved dynamic segmentation is proposed which shows better performance about transients and reduced computation. For various polyphonic audio signals the result of simulation shows the suggested sinusoidal modeling can model polyphonic audio signals without loss of perceptual quality.

In this paper, we propose the lossless image compression algorithm using the integer wavelet transform. Recently, the S＋P transform is widely used and computed with only integer addition and bit-shift operations, but not proper to remove the correlation of smooth images. then we compare the Harr wavelet of the S＋P transform with various integer coefficient filter banks and apply 9/7 ICFB to the wavelet transform. In addition, we propose a entropy-coding method that exploits the multiresolution structure and the feedback of the prediction error, and can efficiently compress the transformed image for progressive transmission. Simulation results are compared to the compression ratio using the S+P transform with different types of images.

본 논문에서는 변형된 wavelet 변환을 통해 추출한 특징벡터를 이용하여 한국어 숫자음을 대상으로 한 음성인식기를 구현하였다. wavelet 변환은 시간 및 주파수 영역에 대해 다중해상도(multiresolution)를 가지는 신호분석법이다. 본 연구에서는 계산량의 감소와 넓은 주파수 대역을 분석하기 위해, mother wavelet의 형태를 분석 주파수 대역에 따라 변화시키는 방법을 제안하였다. 기존의 wavelet 변환으로 실험한 결과 86.5%의 인식율을 얻었고, 변형된 wavelet 변환의 경우 96%의 인식율을 얻었으며 계산량이 감소하였다. 이와 함께 음성인식에서 널리 사용되는 특징 파라미터인 멜켑스트럼과 FFT 멜스케일 필터 대역(mel scale filter bank)과 비교 실험한 결과 인식율의 향상을 보였다. 이는 제안한 방법이 고주파 대역의 세밀한 시간 해상도와 저주파 대역의 세밀한 주파수 해상도를 지니는데 기인하는 것으로 판단된다.

This paper proposes a method of time-scale modification of polyphonic audio signals based on a sinusoidal model. The signals are modeled with sinusoidal component and noise component. A multiresolution filter bank is designed which splits the input signal into six octave-spaced subbands without aliasing and sinusoidal modeling is applied to each subband signal. To alleviate smearing of transients in time-scale modification a dynamic segmentation method is applied to subbands which determines the analysis-synthesis frame size adaptively to fit time-frequency characteristics of the subband signal. For extracting sinusoidal components and calculating their parameters matching pursuit algorithm is applied to each analysis frame of subband signal. In accordance with spectrum analysis a psychoacoustic model implementing the effect of frequency masking is incorporated with matching pursuit to provide a resonable stop condition of iteration and reduce the number of sinusoids. The noise component obtained by subtracting the synthesized signal with sinusoidal components from the original signal is modeled by line-segment model of short time spectrum envelope. For various polyphonic audio signals the result of simulation shows suggested sinusoidal modeling can synthesize original signal without loss of perceptual quality and do more robust and high quality time-scale modification for large scale factor because of representing transients without any perceptual loss.
