This paper proposes a new subband image compression technique design based on 2-D single-sideband analysis/synthesis system. This new method involves two basic components: the subband analysis/synthesis subsystem, which is composed of down-sampling/up-sampling and filter banks; and the coding subsystem, which utilizes Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) discrete cosine transform lossy transform coder. The first subsystem reduces the image size in the spatial domain and the second subsystem reduces the image size in the frequency domain. These two successive compression processes combine to form a powerful image compression. The overall compression rate of images in this technique can reach up to about 97% of their original size without losing the image quality.","PeriodicalId":135973,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 28th Southeastern Symposium on System Theory","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132945121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adaptive output predictors are used to estimate the future values of the load currents based on a finite-memory of past input-output values. The unknown time varying magnitudes and phase angles of harmonics are modeled as the adaptively estimated parameters. Having the predicted load current available in advance, its harmonic content can be identified and the compensation can be done at the correct time with minimum amount of mismatch between the load current and the compensated current. Because of the nonlinear nature of the loads, the harmonics vary continuously. Therefore, the future values of the load current are obtained using adaptive prediction with a specified number of time steps ahead that will be sufficient to carry out the needed compensation. Results of simulation with one, two, and three step ahead predictions are presented.","PeriodicalId":135973,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 28th Southeastern Symposium on System Theory","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117132562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Case studies conducted on 18 FACE Dipstick profile data and 25 profile data collected using an Ames Profilograph shows that the new SRI, irrespective to the profiling devices, has a good correlation with the International Roughness Index.","PeriodicalId":135973,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 28th Southeastern Symposium on System Theory","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127850000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
