Watermarking is embedding a digital signal called as watermark into images to claim the ownership. In this paper, a new digital watermarking algorithm based on DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) which enhances invisibility and robustness is proposed to improve contentional digital watermarking method using DCT. In the proposed method, it is possible to enhance invisibility and robustness using watermark reordering in which the relative significance of original DCT coefficients can be preserved in watermarked DCT coefficients, and the distortions of original DCT coefficients can be minimized. The experimental results show that the proposed method improves invisibility approximately 9～12[dB] and is more robust to various attacks than the conventional method.

This paper is related to optimization in the image data format, which can make a great effect in performance of data compression and is based on the wavelet transform and JPEG2000. This paper established a criterion to decide the data format to be used in wavelet transform, which is on the bases of the data errors in frequency transform and quantization. This criterion has been used to extract the optimal data format experimentally. The result were (1, 9) of 10-bit fixed-point format for filter coefficients and (9, 7) of 16-bit fixed-point data format for wavelet coefficients and their optimality was confirmed.

In this papers, we proposed the new method in order to diagnosis aging state of transformers. For wavelet transform, Daubechies filter is used, we can obtain wavelet coefficients which is used to extract feature of statistical parameters (maximum value, average value, dispersion skewness, kurtosis) about each acoustic emission signal. Also, these coefficients are used to identify normal and fault signal of internal partial discharge in transformer. As improved method for classification use neural network. Extracted statistical parameters are input into an back-propagation neural network. The number of neurons of hidden layer are obtained through Result of Cross-Validation. The network, after training, can decide whether the test signal is early aging state, alst aging state or normal state. In quantity analysis, capability of proposed method is superior to compared that of classical method.

In this paper, a new approach for systolic array realizing the discrete cosine transform (DCT) based on discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of an input sequence is presented. The proposed array is based on a simple modified DFT(MDFT) version of the Goertzel algorithm combined with Kung's approach and is proved perfectly. This array requires N cells, one multiplier and takes N clock cycles to produce a complete N-point DCT and also is able to process a continuous stream of data sequences. We have analyzed the output signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) and designed the circuit level layout of one-PE chip. The array coefficients are static adn thus stored-product ROM's can be used in place of multipliers to limit cost as eliminate errors due to coefficients quantization.

In this paper, we present a watermarking scheme based on the DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform) and the ANN (Artificial Neural Network) to ensure the copyright protection of the digital images. The problem to embed watermark is not clear to select important coefficient in the watermarking. We used the RBF (Radial-Basis Function) to solve the problem. We didn't apply the whole wavelet coefficients, but applied to only the wavelet coefficients in the selected node. Using the ANN, although even the watermark casting process and watermark verification process are in public, nobody knows the location of embedding watermark except of authorized user. As the result, the watermark is good at the strength test-filtering, geometric transform and etc.

The noise suppression of time domain NMR data by discrete wavelet transform with high order Daubechies wavelet coefficients exhibits severe peak distortion and incomplete noise suppression near real signal. However, the fact that even a shift averaged Harr wavelet transform with a set of Daubechies wavelet coefficients (1/2, -l/2) can be used as a new and excellent tool to distinguish real peaks from the noise contaminated NMR signal is introduced. New algorithms of shift averaged Harr wavelet were developed and quantitatively evaluated in terms of threshold and signal to noise ratio (SNR).

An image authentication scheme for gray scale image through embedding a digital watermark by quantization of Integer Wavelet Transform (IWT) coefficients of the image is proposed in this paper. Proposed method is designed to detect modification of an image and to identify tampered location of the image. To embed the watermark mid-frequency band of a second level IWT was used. An approximation of the original image based on LL band was stored in LSB bits of the pixel data as a recovery mark for restoration of the image. Watermarked image has achieved a good PSNR of 40 dB compared to original cover image. Restored image quality was also very good with a PSNR of more than 35 dB compared to unmodified watermarked image even when 25% of the received image is cropped. Thus, the proposed method ensures a proper balance between the fidelity of the watermarked image and the quality of the restored image.

Localized damage to a structure affects its dynamic properties, and much work has been undertaken investigating the variation of natural frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes. This paper presents a technique based on wavelet transform to detect the existences and locations of structural damages. The procedure operates solely on the mode shape from the damaged structure, and does not require a priori knowledge of the undamaged structure. The procedure is developed using a 32-story shear building model. Applying wavelet transform to the mode shape successfully identifies the location of damage. The procedure is best suited to the mode shape obtained from the fundamental natural frequency. The wavelet coefficients from the higher mode shapes can be used to verify the location of damage, but they are not as sensitive as the wavelet coefficients of the lower mode shapes.

This paper describes a method for the detection of shorted-turn in the cylindrical synchronous generator rotor windings based on the discrete wavelet transform. Multi-resolution analysis(MRA) based on discrete wavelet transform provides a set of decomposed signals in independent frequency bands. In the proposed method, shorted-turn detection in rotor windings is based on the decomposition of the rotor currents, where wavelet coefficients of these signals have been extracted. Comparing these extracted coefficients is used for diagnosing the healthy machine from faulty machine. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method for shorted-turn detection in the cylindrical synchronous generator rotor windings.

In this paper, the 1-level DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform) coefficients of a binary logo image are used as the watermark. The watermark should be inserted in the same band which is equivalent to the host image when the watermark is inserted in the wavelet domain. This is the image fusion of the proposed watermarking method. The watermark is inserted in relatively significant coefficients after the insertion area is defined. The more significant coefficients have the important information because they are identified as the edge and major surface in images. The significant coefficients are defined when their absolute value exceeds the threshold. The standard deviation is used as the weight value of watermark insertion in order to strengthen the weight of the watermark insertion according to the value of the coefficients. The proposed watermarking method is an adaptive scheme, and the proposed two detection algorithms can be adaptively used when the watermarked image is distorted by cropping, filtering, or compression.
