The algorithms are implemented using a series of signal processing methods including Ada Boost, cascade classifier, Local Binary Pattern (LBP), Haar-like feature, facial image pre-processing and Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The Ada Boost algorithm is implemented in a cascade classifier to train the face and eye detectors with robust detection accuracy. The LBP descriptor is utilized to extract facial features for fast face detection. The eye detection algorithm reduces the false face detection rate. The detected facial image is then processed to correct the orientation and increase the contrast, therefore, maintains high facial recognition accuracy. Finally, the PCA algorithm is used to recognize faces efficiently. Large databases with faces and non-faces images are used to train and validate face detection and facial recognition algorithms. The algorithms achieve an overall true-positive rate of 98.8% for face detection and 99.2% for correct facial recognition.","PeriodicalId":38474,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Hiding and Multimedia Signal Processing","volume":"30 1","pages":"99-112"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88433847","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 understand such scenarios, the appropriate extraction of their features from observation data is important. This paper proposes a monitoring method that allows sound environments to be expressed as a sound pattern. To this end, the concept of synesthesia is exploited. That is, the keys, tones, and pitches of the monitored sound are expressed using the three elements of color, that is, the hue, saturation, and brightness, respectively. In this paper, it is assumed that the hue, saturation, and brightness can be detected from the chromagram, sonogram, and sound spectrogram, respectively, based on a previous synesthesia experiment. Then, the sound pattern can be drawn using color, yielding a “painted sound map.” The usefulness of the proposed monitoring technique is verified using environmental sound data observed at a galleria.","PeriodicalId":38474,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Hiding and Multimedia Signal Processing","volume":"960 ","pages":"65-77"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72495684","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 this paper, we propose an additional tool (additional to the ISI, MSE and BER) for analyzing the equalization performance in the convergence region based on the Maximum Time Interval Error (MTIE) criterion that is used for the specification of clock stability requirements in telecommunications standards. This new tool preserves the short term statistical information unlike the already known tools (BER, ISI, MSE) that lack this information. Simulation results will show that the equalization performance of a blind adaptive equalizer obtained in the convergence region for two different channels is seen to be approximately the same from the residual ISI and MSE point of view while this is not the case with our new proposed tool. Thus, our new proposed tool might be considered as a more sensitive tool compared to the ISI and MSE method.","PeriodicalId":38474,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Hiding and Multimedia Signal Processing","volume":"1 1","pages":"42-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76093623","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}

A dynamic channel is characterized and modeled by a high relative velocity between transmitter and receiver and fast changes of environment conditions for wave propagation. Based on Jakes model, an auto-regressive model (AR) [1] for such a dynamic system, i.e., a time variant channel is developed. More specifically, the enhanced equalization method we are proposing is a combination of a multi-stage time and frequency domain equalizer with a feed-forward loop. The underlined wok presents a unified approach to the equalization method that employs both time and frequency domains data to enhance the equalization scheme. In an OFDM system, the channel coefficients for each tap, in time domain for consecutive blocks, are partially independent thus correlated. Such correlation can improve the channel estimation if it is taken into account. The method in this paper enhances the performance of equalization by dynamically selecting the number of previous OFDM symbols based on the Doppler frequency. In order to decrease the complexity of the system model, we utilize the autocorrelation and Doppler frequency to dynamically select the previous OFDM symbols that will be stored in the memory. In addition to deriving earlier results in a unified manner, the approach presented also leads to enhanced performance results without imposing any restrictions or limitations on the OFDM system such as increasing the number of pilots or cyclic prefix.","PeriodicalId":38474,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Hiding and Multimedia Signal Processing","volume":"56 1","pages":"17-41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83174900","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}

Several windows are well known: hamming, hanning, beartlett, etc. The selection of a window is based on its spectral characteristics. Several papers that analyze the amplitude and width of the lobes that appear in the spectrum of various types of window have been published. This is very important because the lobes can hide information on the frequency components of the original signal, in particular when frequency components are very close to each other. In this paper it is shown that the size of the window can also have an impact in the spectral information. Until today, the size of a window has been chosen in a subjective way. As far as we know, there are no publications that show how to determine the minimum size of a window. In this work the frequency interval between two consecutive values of a Fourier Transform is considered. This interval determines if the sampling frequency and the number of samples are adequate to differentiate between two frequency components that are very close. From the analysis of this interval, a mathematical inequality is obtained, that determines in an objective way, the minimum size of a window. Two examples of the use of this criterion are presented. The results show that the hiding of information of a signal is due mainly to the wrong choice of the size of the window, but also to the relative amplitude of the frequency components and the type of window. Windowing is the main tool used in spectral analysis with nonparametric periodograms. Until now, optimization was based on the type of window. In this paper we show that the right choice of the size of a window assures on one hand that the number of data is enough to resolve the frequencies involved in the signal, and on the other, reduces the number of required data, and thus the processing time, when very long files are being analyzed.","PeriodicalId":38474,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Hiding and Multimedia Signal Processing","volume":"29 1","pages":"175-191"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74726871","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}

Previously, Translation Invariant Wavelet Transforms \u0000(TIWT) have been shown to perform exceedingly well in CS by reducing repetitive \u0000line pattern image artifacts that may be observed when using orthogonal \u0000wavelets. To further establish its validity as a good sparsifying transform, \u0000the TIWT is comprehensively investigated and compared with Total Variation \u0000(TV), using six under-sampling patterns through simulation. Both trajectory and \u0000random mask based under-sampling of MRI data are reconstructed to demonstrate a \u0000comprehensive coverage of tests. Notably, the TIWT in CS reconstruction \u0000performs well for all varieties of under-sampling patterns tested, even for \u0000cases where TV does not improve the mean squared error. This improved Image \u0000Quality (IQ) gives confidence in applying this transform to more CS \u0000applications which will contribute to an even greater speed-up of a CS MRI \u0000scan. High vs low resolution time of flight MRI CS re-constructions are also \u0000analyzed showing how partial Fourier acquisitions must be carefully addressed \u0000in CS to prevent loss of IQ. In the spirit of reproducible research, novel \u0000software is introduced here as FastTestCS. It is a helpful tool to quickly \u0000develop and perform tests with many CS customizations. Easy integration and \u0000testing for the TIWT and TV minimization are exemplified. Simulations of 3D MRI \u0000datasets are shown to be efficiently distributed as a scalable solution for \u0000large studies.

This distortion is referred to as \u0000Intersymbol Interference (ISI) and can be reduced significantly by applying a \u0000blind adaptive deconvolution process (blind adaptive equalizer) on the distorted \u0000received symbols. But, since the entire blind deconvolution process is carried \u0000out with no training symbols and the channel’s coefficients are obviously \u0000unknown to the receiver, no actual indication can be given (via the mean square \u0000error (MSE) or ISI expression) during the deconvolution process whether the \u0000blind adaptive equalizer succeeded to remove the heavy ISI from the transmitted \u0000symbols or not.
