In recent years the development of independent Unmanned Ground Sensors (UGS), interconnected through Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), performing distributed cooperative localization, has grown in popularity. This paper considers a 2D Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation method for compact circular array UGS, establishing gunshot direction at close range, and discusses problems, situated with gunshot acoustic component analysis. The proposed method is aimed at reducing the computational cost of DOA calculation for implementation on embedded hardware of WSN smart sensors. It is compared with the SRP-PHAT localization algorithm and is proven to provide adequate DOA estimates, while being more computationally effective.","PeriodicalId":216293,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Digital Signal Processing (DSP)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127034215","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}

Although existing cross relation based blind channel identification algorithm can achieve promising results, one of the drawbacks is the performance degradation in a noisy environment. In this work, we show that the degradation in convergence performance of MCLMS is due to an implicit constraint imposed by the cross relation cost function. This constraint requires the estimated impulse responses to be of the same energy which is often untrue in practice. We next propose a new algorithm exploiting revised cost function to improve the robustness of MCLMS to noise. Monte Carlo simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can gain significant improvement in steady-state performance.","PeriodicalId":216293,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Digital Signal Processing (DSP)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121672391","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}

While audio classification is widely used in other research areas such as music information retrieval and bioacoustics, its application to vehicle sounds is rare. Therefore, we investigate predicting the state of a vehicle using audio features in a classification task. We improve the classification results using correlation matrices, calculated from signals correlating with the audio. In an experiment, the sound of a moving vehicle is classified into discretized speed intervals and gear positions. The experiment shows that the system is capable of predicting the vehicle speed and gear position with near-perfect accuracy over 99%. These results show that this system could be a valuable addition to vehicle anomaly detection and safety systems.","PeriodicalId":216293,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Digital Signal Processing (DSP)","volume":"62 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131008598","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}

We use the low level visual cues based on the convex hull to compute the high-level priors.

Instead of using the most common RGB (red, green, blue) color scheme, in this paper, YIQ (luminance-Y, chrominance-IQ: in phase-I and quadrature-Q) color scheme is used for analyzing WCE video frames, which corresponds better to human color response characteristics. Analyzing the behavior of each of the four YIQ spaces, first, a region of interest is determined depending on the Q value of the pixels and some morphological operations. Next, instead of considering three spaces of YIQ color model separately, a new composite space Y.I/Q is proposed to capture intrinsic information about the luminance and chrominance of images. Four statistical measures, namely mean, median, skewness and minima of the pixel values in composite space within the ROI are computed as features. It is exhibited that use of composite space lower computational complexity as well as offers noticeably better discrimination between bleeding and non-bleeding pixels. For the purpose of classification, support vector machine (SVM) classifier is employed. Satisfactory bleeding detection performance result is achieved in terms of accuracy, sensitivity and specificity from severe experimentation on several WCE videos which is collected from a publicly available database. Also it is observed that proposed method over performs with comparing some of the existing methods.","PeriodicalId":216293,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Digital Signal Processing (DSP)","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123101929","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}

Specifically, the dictionary pair is learned from high-low resolution cluster patches based on sparse constraint of input patches. Careful examination of the WCE images show there exist unnatural block areas. In order to further improve performance, the autoregressive model is applied to enhance local structure. Intensive experiments have been conducted on WCE image dataset and natural image dataset, including comparison test between the state-of-art methods and ours, and the results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method both on visual perception effect and objective indices.","PeriodicalId":216293,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE International Conference on Digital Signal Processing (DSP)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117138200","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}
