The denominations of the new notes, while very distinctive in their colour and design, are very difficult to differentiate for a vision impaired person. All notes are of equal width and increase only slightly in length with increasing value. The article describes the design and development of a prototype device to identify Australian polymer banknotes, which indicates the denomination to a vision impaired person using a digitally recorded voice output. Use is made of a charge-coupled device (CCD) linear array and a digital signal processing (DSP) chip. Identification is performed by imaging and recognising the contents of the clear window found near the lower corner of each note which is unique for each denomination. This development is of significance in Australia to people who suffer a large degree of vision impairment, and possibly also to the vision impaired population of the European Union, which may also plan to adopt polymer note technology.","PeriodicalId":383878,"journal":{"name":"The Seventh Australian and New Zealand Intelligent Information Systems Conference, 2001","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132584636","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}

However, when fuzzy control systems are used in real problems, many rules may be required. A hierarchical fuzzy system that partitions a problem for more efficient computation may be the answer. When creating a hierarchical fuzzy system, the level identification stage is crucial and time-consuming. This has a direct effect on how efficient the hierarchical fuzzy system is. This paper reports the use of an input data mining technique to efficiently perform the level identification stage. Without the use of input data mining, k*(k-1) ways of building the hierarchical fuzzy system must be tried.","PeriodicalId":383878,"journal":{"name":"The Seventh Australian and New Zealand Intelligent Information Systems Conference, 2001","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131503325","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}

It promotes the sensors as a peripheral device that uses digital signal processing and ultrasonics to compute distance measurements using time-delay calculations of ultrasonic signals. The design increases the coverage of the cane and overcomes the common bad habits in techniques of its use. The integrated cane will allow detection of high-level objects and give a greater reaction time for changes in the level of the user's path, such as dips. Initial calculations for the timing of signals, and the coverage of sensors for the cane are explored, and descriptions of signal filtering and audio feedback methods used are discussed.","PeriodicalId":383878,"journal":{"name":"The Seventh Australian and New Zealand Intelligent Information Systems Conference, 2001","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115691353","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}

Recovery of the source input is achieved by introducing a novel interpolation scheme, which is applied to the observed distorted output to create the necessary conditions for blind identification of the filter parameters.","PeriodicalId":383878,"journal":{"name":"The Seventh Australian and New Zealand Intelligent Information Systems Conference, 2001","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125051278","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}

The BCQO technique has already been used in signal restoration, however implementation of this method in image restoration requires considerable memory and it is computationally expensive. The proposed algorithm replaces the weight matrix of the network with a much smaller mask, thus reducing the processing time and requiring much less memory space. This algorithm produces better results than those obtained by Wiener filter, and achieves image restoration with less iterations compared to a modified Hopfield neural network.","PeriodicalId":383878,"journal":{"name":"The Seventh Australian and New Zealand Intelligent Information Systems Conference, 2001","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116022260","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}

The multi-stage system consists of four main procedures: data acquisition, pre-processing, pattern recognition and pattern interpretation. The two most important features of the system are included in the stage of pattern recognition: an adaptive algorithm,For eliminating spectrogram background noise and identifying velocity profiles and a hierarchical fuzzy model for estimating the start and end of MDI and ASO waveforms. Comparison of the adaptive algorithm, Otsu's (1979), and Deravi and Pal's (1983) thresholding methods with the results of visual inspection, on a series of 180 in vivo CW Doppler echocardiographic images, shows that the adaptive schema consistently outperforms both other methods. The results of the fuzzy system correlated well with expert manual analysis (r>0.90 with at least 81% match rate). Overall the system is effective, computationally efficient, and overcomes the problems of initialization and velocity profile modeling that were encountered in the literature.","PeriodicalId":383878,"journal":{"name":"The Seventh Australian and New Zealand Intelligent Information Systems Conference, 2001","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129231929","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}
