This paper presents an effective audio watermarking technique based on energy balancing of DCT coefficients to recover the watermark from signal processing, such as compression, without compromising the intended effect of the original signal. The presented technique needs to divide the audio signal into segments. Three parameters define the segment length, what segments are selected, and the frequency range of DCT of the selected segments for watermark embedding, respectively. The error-correcting code can be incorporated to improve the decoded watermark quality. Experimental results show that the technique is robust against compression and other operations. Furthermore, no original signal is required for decoding the watermark.","PeriodicalId":408223,"journal":{"name":"Anti-counterfeiting, Security, and Identification","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114352754","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 conventional solution is using sensor arrays instead of single sensors for pattern recognition. But this solution is expensive and the accuracy is affected by every single sensor in it. So developing recognition techniques based on single sensors is strongly needed. In this paper, a new method based on computational verb theory was developed by employing verb similarities as decision features and a clear linear decision boundary was found. Precise recognition between ethanol and acetone was conducted by using a single sensor. Compared with the conventional gas recognition approach, this method is more cost effective and programmable which shows promising applications in future smart gas detecting systems.","PeriodicalId":408223,"journal":{"name":"Anti-counterfeiting, Security, and Identification","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121248097","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 techniques have the advance of improving the compression ratio, but at the same time, the compressed data stream will be very sensitive to transmission errors. In the error-prone network, the frame transmission error, which caused by the amount of video data and the noise of transmission channel, will result in a decline in the quality of received video, and affect its viewing effect. Error concealment techniques have the ability to keep the video quality as much as possible in the conditions of not changing the structure of video stream in the case of transmission errors taking place. To reduce the impact of errors on video quality, an adaptive macro-block (MB) size selection error concealment algorithm that based on edge matching rule is proposed in this paper. By means of using the adjacent macro-block information and the edge matching principle to adaptively select MB size, and based on the distribution and the edge direction of the video frame, made use of the spatial correlation of the image to recover the motion vector of corrupted macro-block and keep the edge feature at the same time. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is superior to common used concealment algorithm of H.264 in both subjective and objective quality.","PeriodicalId":408223,"journal":{"name":"Anti-counterfeiting, Security, and Identification","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115440298","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}

By applying a sequence of tests using small on-chip support circuits attached to the PDS, the resistance of components of the PDS can be obtained from the solution to a set of simultaneous equations, and be applied to hardware security by forming a PUF.

However, traditional NoCs using metallic interconnects consume a significant amount of power to deliver high communication bandwidth required in the near future. Optical NoCs are based on CMOS-compatible optical waveguides and optical routers, and promise significant bandwidth and power advantages. In this work, we review different designs of 5×5 and 4×4 optical routers for mesh or torus-based optical NoCs, and compare them for cost of optical resources and optical power loss. Besides, we use a 8×8 mesh-based optical NoC as a case study and analyze the thermal-induced power overhead while using different optical routers. Results show that the number of switching stages in an optical link directly affects the total optical power loss under thermal variations. By using passive-routing optical routers, the maximum number of switching stages in a XY-routing path is minimized to three, and the thermal-induced power overhead in the optical NoC is less than the matched networks using other routers.","PeriodicalId":408223,"journal":{"name":"Anti-counterfeiting, Security, and Identification","volume":"32 11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116934087","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}
