Active noise control is an approach to noise reduction in which a secondary noise source that destructively interferes with the unwanted noise. In general, active noise control systems rely on multiple sensors to measure the unwanted noise field and the effect of the cancellation. This paper develops an approach that utilizes a single sensor. The noise field is modeled as a stochastic process, and a time-adaptive algorithm is used to adaptively estimate the parameters of the process. Based on these parameter estimates, a canceling signal is generated. Opppenheim model assumed that transfer function characteristics from the canceling source to the error sensor is only propagation delay. But this paper proposes a modified Oppenheim model by considering transfer characteristics of acoustic device and noise path. This transfer characteristics is adaptively cancelled by adaptive model. This is proved by computer simulation with artifically generated random noise and sine wave noise. The details of the proposed architecture, and theoretical simulation and experimental results of the noise cancellation system for three dimension enclosure are presented in the paper.

Images are unavoidably contaminated with different types of noise during the processes of image acquisition and transmission. The main forms of noise are impulse noise (is also called salt and pepper noise) and Gaussian noise. In this paper, an effective method of removing mixed noise from images is proposed. In general, different types of denoising methods are designed for different types of noise; for example, the median filter displays good performance in removing impulse noise, and the wavelet denoising algorithm displays good performance in removing Gaussian noise. However, images are affected by more than one type of noise in many cases. To reduce both impulse noise and Gaussian noise, this paper proposes a denoising method that combines adaptive median filtering (AMF) based on impulse noise detection with the wavelet threshold denoising method based on a Gaussian mixture model (GMM). The simulation results show that the proposed method achieves much better denoising performance than the median filter or the wavelet denoising method for images contaminated with mixed noise.

This paper proposes an adaptive noise suppression system based on human auditory model to enhance speech signal that is degraded by various background noises. The proposed system detects voiced and unvoiced sections for each frame and implements the adaptive auditory process, then reduces the noise speech signal using neural network including amplitude component and phase component. Base on measuring signal-to-noise ratios, experiments confirm that the proposed system is effective for speech signal that is degraded by various noises.

Lee(2007) suggested the Point-Jacobian iteration MAP estimation(PJIMAP) for noise removal of the images that are corrupted by multiplicative speckle noise. It is to find a MAP estimation of noisy-free imagery based on a Bayesian model using the lognormal distribution for image intensity and an MRF for image texture. When the image intensity is logarithmically transformed, the speckle noise is approximately Gaussian additive noise, and it tends to a normal probability much faster than the intensity distribution. The MRF is incorporated into digital image analysis by viewing pixel types as states of molecules in a lattice-like physical system. In this study, the MAP estimation is computed by the Point-Jacobian iteration using adaptive parameters. At each iteration, the parameters related to the Bayesian model are adaptively estimated using the updated information. The results of the proposed scheme were compared to them of PJIMAP with SAR simulation data generated by the Monte Carlo method. The experiments demonstrated an improvement in relaxing speckle noise and estimating noise-free intensity by using the adaptive parameters for the Ponit-Jacobian iteration.

In the white noise model we construct an adaptive estimate for f(0) for a decreasing function f. We also show that the maximum mean square error of this estimate attains the same rate as the minimax risk simultaneously over a range of Lipschitz classes of order less than or equal to one.

In the actual case, a model of noise canceller using adaptive filter has both a channel transfer function from noise source to main signal input and to noise canceller input. The previous models of noise canceller have been considered to be only one side channel transfer function. Therefore, it is proposed that a new model has two channel transfer functions and derives an optimal tranfer function of adaptive noise canceller. The adaptive filter is using the joint process lattice filter that has fast adaptive speed. The signal noise radio has been improved by a model of ANC-ALE and it is confirmed with computer simulation. Beside, a dc bias is very effective for noise cancelling, especially to the particular signal.

Kuo et al proposed an on-line method for an adaptive prediction error filter for improving secondary path modeling performance in the modeling method of the secondary path. This method have some disadvantages, namely having to use additive noise with the result that noise control performance is not good since it is focused on the estimated performance of the secondary path. In this paper, we proposes a modified Kuo model using gain control parameter and delay. It uses a reference signal for additive noise to improve the problems in the existing Kuo model.

Noise subtraction using reference channel data has been used to improve signal-to-noise ratio in magnetoencephalography. In this paper, an adaptive noise subtraction model is proposed and parameters for the model are optimized. A criterion to determine an optimal update period for the filter coefficients is proposed based on the ratio of peak amplitude of evoked field (N100m) divided by the output standard deviation. Experiments are carried out using a 40 channel MEG system. From the experiments, the proposed noise subtraction method shows superior performances over existing non-adaptive methods. Two-dimensional topographic map is shown for a diagnosis with a cubic spline interpolation.

In the case of the transfer function for the secondary path is dependent on time, the on-line method which can model it is continuously must be applied to the active noise control technique. And the adaptive random noise technique among the on-line methods is effective in the narrow-band control. In this method, the signal to noise ratio between random noise for modeling and primary noise is low. Therefore, the estimations of transfer function will be prone to inaccuracies and the convergence time will be too long. Such imperfections will have an influence upon the performance of an active noise controller. In this study, t enhance the signal to noise ratio, the on-line method that is combined the conventional adaptive random noise technique and the adaptive line enhancer, is proposed. By using proposed on-line method, a rigorous system identification and control of primary noise have been implemented.
