Recently, Kaur and Raghava developed a neural network method to predict /spl gamma/-turns and achieved perfect results. In this paper, we employ a SVM method using both evolutionary information and secondary structure information to predict /spl gamma/-turns. Compared to the neural network method, our method improves several performance measures, such as prediction accuracy, and MCC. Also we use a new performance measure, SOV, to assess our method.","PeriodicalId":385759,"journal":{"name":"2005 International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing and Communication Systems","volume":"610 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":"122364127","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 idea is for users to control their computer or TV system simply by moving their fingers, without any contact on realistic objects. A fast and robust method that can trace the position of finger tip is proposed. The method consists of four steps. First, the skin-color pixels of figures are detected by color segmentation using the chrominance component of the input from a CMOS image sensor. Second, density regularization processes are carried out to reinforce the regions of skin-colour pixels. Third, an effective window search technique is applied for minimizing computational cost. Fourth, a finger-tip tracking algorithm is applied to find out the finger-tip position. Clicking action is also implemented by a specific movement. The virtual mouse has been designed in an embedded Linux system. The device works successfully, the response is quick and accurate positioning is obtained.","PeriodicalId":385759,"journal":{"name":"2005 International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing and Communication Systems","volume":"44 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":"125964337","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}

Firstly, we analyze the correlations between wavelet coefficients to identify a proper wavelet basis function, then predictor variables are statistically test to determine which wavelet coefficients should be included in the prediction model. At last, prediction differences are encoded by adaptive arithmetic coding to achieve a higher-rate compression. Instead of relying on a fixed number of predictors on fixed locations in the traditional approaches, we proposed the adaptive prediction approach to overcome the multicollinearity problem. The proposed innovative approach integrating correlation analysis for selecting wavelet basis function with predictor variable selection is fully achieving high accuracy of prediction. Experimental results show that the proposed approach indeed achieves a higher compression rate on CT and MRI images comparing with several state-of-the-art methods.","PeriodicalId":385759,"journal":{"name":"2005 International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing and Communication Systems","volume":"21 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":"128035460","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}

These nonlinear functions are applied only in a certain range around zero in order to ensure that the relative gradient algorithm remains locally stable. The proposed truncated nonlinearities neutralize the effect of outliers while the higher order terms inherently present in the exponential function result in fast convergence especially for signals with bounded support. By varying the truncation threshold, signals with both sub-Gaussian and super-Gaussian probability distributions can be separated. Furthermore, when the sources consist of signals with mixed kurtosis signs we propose to estimate the characteristic function online in order to classify the signals as sub-Gaussian or super-Gaussian and consequently choose an adequate value of the truncation threshold. Some computer simulations are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed idea.","PeriodicalId":385759,"journal":{"name":"2005 International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing and Communication Systems","volume":"16 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":"114819149","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}
