디지털 영상 장치의 이용이 증가함에 따라, 영상 처리 관련 소프트웨어 및 하드웨어에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며, 영상 처리는 물체 인식, 물체 검출, 지문 인식 등의 여러 분야에서 적용되고 있다. 에지 검출은 대부분의 영상 처리 기술 등의 전처리 과정으로 국내외에서 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 대표적인 에지 검출 방법에는 소벨(Sobel), 프리윗(Prewitt), 라플라시안(Laplacian), 로버츠(Roberts), 케니(Canny) 에지 검출기 등이 있으며, 이러한 기존의 방법들은 비잡음 영상에서 에지를 우수하게 검출이 가능하나 임펄스 잡음에 훼손된 영상에서는 잡음 제거 특성이 미흡하여, 에지 검출 특성이 미흡하게 나타난다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 임펄스 잡음에 훼손된 영상에서 우수한 에지 검출 특성을 얻기 위하여, 마스크의 중심 화소를 축으로 하여 4개의 영역으로 나누고, 각 영역의 대표 화소값에 따라 추정 화소를 구하며, 추정된 마스크와 새로운 방향성 마스크를 적용하여 최종 에지를 검출하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

에지 검출은 영상 분할, 영상 인식 등의 전처리 과정이며, 국내외에서 많은 관련 연구가 진행되고 있다. 대표적인 에지 검출 방법에는 소벨(Sobel), 프리윗(Prewitt), 라플라시안(Laplacian), 로버츠(Roberts), 케니(Canny) 에지 검출기 등이 있으며, 이러한 기존의 방법들은 비잡음 영상에서 에지를 검출할 경우 에지를 우수하게 검출이 가능하나 salt-and-pepper 잡음에 훼손된 영상에서는 잡음의 영향에 의해 에지 검출 특성이 미흡하게 나타난다. 따라서 본 논문은 salt-and-pepper 잡음에 훼손된 영상에서 우수한 에지 검출 특성을 얻기 위하여, 먼저 마스크의 중심 화소를 기준으로 상, 하, 좌, 우 방향으로 영역을 구분한다. 그리고 각 영역의 대표 화소값의 잡음 여부를 판단하여 그 결과에 따라 추정 마스크의 요소를 구한 후, 여기에 방향성 마스크를 적용하여 최종 에지를 검출하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

Voice activity detection is very important process that voice activity separated form noisy speech signal for speech enhance. Over the past few years, many studies have been made on voice activity detection, but it has poor performance in low signal to noise ratio environment or fickle noise such as car noise. In this paper, it proposed new voice activity detection algorithm using ensemble variance based on wavelet band entropy and soft thresholding method. We conduct a survey in a lot of signal to noise ratio environment of car noise to evaluate performance of the proposed algorithm and confirmed performance of the proposed algorithm.

This paper presents a method of fault detection and fault localization from acoustic noise measurements. In order to detect the presence of noise sources wavelet transform is applied to acoustic signal. In addition, a cross correlation based method is proposed to calculate the exact location of the noise allowing the user to quickly diagnose and resolve the source of the noise. The fault detection system is implemented using two microphones and a computer system. Experimental results show that the system can detect faults due to artifacts accidentally inserted during the manufacturing process and estimate the location of the fault with approximately 1 cm precision.

This study was to analyze the difference in pilot error by using the Signal Detection Theory. The task was to detect the targeted aircraft(signal) which is different shape from many other aircraft(noise). From the two experiments, we differentiated the task difficulty followed by change in noise stimuli. Experiment 1 was to search the signal stimuli(fighter plane) while the noise stimuli(cargo plane) were increasing. The results from the Experiment 1 showed the tendency to decrease the hit rate by increasing the number of noise stimuli. However, the false alarm rate was not increased. The sensitivity(d') showed quite high. In Experiment 2, a disturbance stimulus(helicopter) was added to noise stimuli. The result was generally similar to those of Experiment 1. However, the hit rate was lower than that of Experiment 1.

Hub bearings not only sustain the body of a cat, but permit wheels to rotate freely. Excessive radial or axial load and many other reasons can cause defects to be created and grown in each component. Therefore, nitration and noise from unwanted defects in outer-race, inner-race or ball elements of a Hub bearing are what we want to detect as early as possible. How early we can detect the faults has to do with how the detection algorithm finds the fault information from measured signal. Fortunately, the bearing signal has Periodic impulse train. This information allows us to find the faults regardless how much noise contaminates the signal. This paper shows the basic signal processing idea and experimental results that demonstrate how good the method is.

The aim of this paper is to compare wavelet, kurtosis and pseudofractal based techniques for structural health monitoring in the presence of measurement noise. A detailed comparison and assessment of these techniques have been carried out in this paper through numerical experiments for the calibration of damage extent of a simply supported beam with an open crack serving as an illustrative example. The numerical experiments are deemed critical due to limited amount of experimental data available in the field of singularity based detection of damage. A continuous detectibility map has been proposed for comparing various techniques qualitatively. Efficiency surfaces have been constructed for wavelet, kurtosis and pseudofractal based calibration of damage extent as a function of damage location and measurement noise level. Levels of noise have been identified for each technique where a sudden drop of calibration efficiency is observed marking the onset of damage masking regime by measurement noise.

Large mutual capacitance touch screen panels (TSP) are susceptible to display and ambient noise. This paper presents a multi-touch detection algorithm using an efficient noise compensation technique for large mutual capacitance TSPs. The sources of noise are presented and analyzed. The algorithm includes the steps to overcome each source of noise. The algorithm begins with a calibration technique to overcome the TSP mutual capacitance variation. The algorithm also overcomes the shadow effect of a hand close to TSP and mutual capacitance variation by dynamic threshold calculations. Time and space filters are also used to filter out ambient noise. The experimental results were used to determine the system parameters to achieve the best performance.

Leaks in underground pipelines can cause social, environmental and economical problems. One of relevant countermeasures against leaks is to find and repair of leak points of the pipes. Leak noise is a good source to identify the location of leak points of the pipelines. Although there have been several methods to detect the leak location with leak noise, such as listening rods, hydrophones or ground microphones, they have not been so efficient tools. In this paper, accelermeters aroused to detect leak locations which could provide an easier and more efficient method. Filtering, signal processing and algorithm of raw input data from sensors for the detection of leak location are described. A 120m-long and a 70m-long experimental pipeline systems are installed and the results with the systems show that the algorithm with the accelerometers offers accurate pinpointing for leaks location detection. Theoretical analysis of sound wave propagation speed of water in underground pipes, which is critically important in leak locating, is also described.

In the transmitting process of image processing system, images always be corrupted by impulse noise, especially random-valued impulse noise. So removing the random-valued impulse noise is very important, but it is also one of the most difficult case in image processing. The most famous method is the standard median filter, but at edge, the filter has a special feature which has a tendency to decrease the preserve. As a result, we proposed a filter that detection random-valued impulse noise firstly, next to use efficient method to remove the noise and preserve the details. And through the simulation, we compared with the algorithms and indicated that proposed method significant improvement over many other existing algorithms.
