Although its computational complexity is lower than those of the RLS and Robust RLS algorithms, its computational complexity can be reduced further. A fast implementation method is applied in this paper to decrease its computational complexity. The performance of the fast implemented RI algorithm is compared to those of the Variable Step-Size LMS (VSSLMS), Discrete Cosine Transform LMS (DCTLMS) and Recursive-Least-Squares (RLS) algorithms in Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN), Additive Correlated Gaussian Noise (ACGN), Additive White Impulsive Noise (AWIN) and Additive Correlated Impulsive Noise (ACIN) environments in a noise cancellation setting. Simulation results show that the Fast RI algorithm performs better than the VSSLMS and DCTLMS algorithms. Its performance is the same as in the RLS algorithm with a considerable reduction in complexity.","PeriodicalId":152297,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE 18th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference","volume":"178 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127311632","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}

Optimal transition boundaries for a given number of transitions are obtained by using particle swarm optimization. The piece-wise smooth section parameters are obtained as the maximum likelihood estimates conditioned on the optimal transition boundaries. The proposed algorithm is extended to the case where the number of transition boundaries are unknown by sequentially increasing number of sections until the residual error is at the level of noise standard deviation. Performance comparison with the state of the art techniques reveals the important advantages of the proposed technique.","PeriodicalId":152297,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE 18th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125285487","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}

Afterwards, rows of the survey are found and the cells which contain the answers between the rows are segmented. After the pre-processing step that includes filling and thinning operations, the answers in these parts are categorized using histogram-based features and area ratio.

Then, a fixed detector is considered, and sufficient conditions under which its performance can or cannot be improved via signal randomization are presented. After that, the joint design of detectors and signal structures is studied, andan optimization problem is formulated to determine the optimal system parameters. Finally, numerical results are presented to exemplify the improvements via signal randomization.","PeriodicalId":152297,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE 18th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114451533","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}

In order to solve this problem we use Multi-class LogitBoost algorithm in order to construct corresponding classifier structure. Although approaches generally use binary classifiers for each view class detection, we develop one multi-class classifier using LogitBoost algorithm. We collect large number of background images under a cascade of classifiers constructed with multi-class boosting algorithm. Using this classification approach each pose view of the face images can be detected and classified at the same time and rejecting the background images at each stage of the multi-class classifier cascade as well. Experiments on video images have shown that the performance of this classification approach is similar to the other state-of-art approaches for the detection and pose estimation of face images.","PeriodicalId":152297,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE 18th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference","volume":"166 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114585912","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}
