Implementation of RNS-Based Distributed Arithmetic Discrete Wavelet Transform Architectures Using Field-Programmable Logic

Currently there are design barriers inhibiting the implementation of high-precision digital signal processing (DSP) objects with field programmable logic (FPL) devices. This paper explores overcoming these barriers by fusing together the popular distributed arithmetic (DA) method with the residue number system (RNS) for use in FPL-centric designs. The new design paradigm is studied in the context of a high-performance filter bank and a discrete wavelet transform (DWT). The proposed design paradigm is facilitated by a new RNS accumulator structure based on a carry save adder (CSA). The reported methodology also introduces a polyphase filter structure that results in a reduced look-up table (LUT) budget. The 2C-DA and RNS-DA are compared, in the context of a FPL implementation strategy, using a discrete wavelet transform (DWT) filter bank as a common design theme. The results show that the RNS-DA, compared to a traditional 2C-DA design, enjoys a performance advantage that increases with precision (wordlength).     

运动汽车图像静态视点平滑特征优化仿真

由于运动汽车图像在特征采集过程中,汽车处于高速运动状态,采集的过程无法与汽车完全同步,造成汽车的特征像素分量在高速运动中丢失,产生较大的像素运动噪声,使得汽车图像边缘高频特征因为运动干扰而模糊.传统的平滑过渡方法在对运动汽车图像进行平滑处理时,按照图像中像元灰度值计算突变特性,但受到像素丢失与噪声无法抑制的影响,无法解决运动汽车图像高频分量对图像像元灰度值的干扰问题.提出基于替身运动DR算法的运动汽车图像静态视点平滑过渡方法,用替身像素描述汽车在场景中的运动特征,替身像素在场景中运动并同其它汽车的替身进行交互,采用局部化的车辆模型提高运动汽车场景的逼真度,通过依据替身运动的平滑过渡算法完成归一化线性运动汽车图像静态视点的平滑过渡,解决了运动汽车图像的平滑过渡问题.实验结果说明,所提方法可确保运动汽车图像边缘锐化,有效处理平滑噪声和锐化边缘.     

Efficient wavelet-based ECG processing for single-lead FHR extraction

This paper describes a novel model for fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring from single-lead mother?s abdomen ECG (AECG) measurements. This novel method is divided in two stages: the first step consists on a one-step wavelet-based preprocessing for simultaneous baseline and high-frequency noise suppression, while the second stage efficiently detects fetal QRS complexes allowing FHR monitoring. The presented structure has been simplified as much as possible, in order to reduce computational cost and thus enable possible custom hardware implementations. Moreover, the proposed scheme and its fixed-point modeling have been tested using real abdominal ECG signals, which allow the validation of the presented approach and provide high accuracy.     

A high payload frequency-based reversible image hiding method

To provide both a high payload capacity and a good stego-image quality, a high payload frequency-based reversible image hiding (HPFRIH) method was presented in this paper. These performances can be achieved by transforming a cover image from the spatial domain into the frequency domain through Haar digital wavelet transform (HDWT) method followed by an adaptive arithmetic coding method to encode the HDWT coefficients in a high-frequency band. The HPFRIH method was used to conceal both the compressed data and the secret data in the high-frequency band. This simple method can completely reconstruct the cover image only from the stego-image. Moreover, experimental results showed that the HPFRIH method offers both impressive hiding capacity and satisfied stego-image quality.     

Edge detection insensitive to changes of illumination in the image

In this paper we present new edge detection algorithms which are motivated by recent developments on edge-adapted reconstruction techniques [F. Aràndiga, A. Cohen, R. Donat, N. Dyn, B. Matei, Approximation of piecewise smooth functions and images by edge-adapted (ENO-EA) nonlinear multiresolution techniques, Appl. Comput. Harmon. Anal. 24 (2) (2008) 225–250]. They are based on comparing local quantities rather than on filtering and thresholding. This comparison process is invariant under certain transformations that model light changes in the image, hence we obtain edge detection algorithms which are insensitive to changes in illumination.     

论梁启超政治功能小说观

梁启超发起“小说界革命”，将小说直接承载政治使命，并提出“小说为文学之最上乘”的口号，客观上消融了一直以来存在于人们脑海的“小说为小道”的观念痼疾。小说也因此成为当时最受欢迎的文学样式。“小说界革命”对小说地位的提升与当时特定的社会环境及梁启超本人的社会地位是密不可分的。     

On neuro-wavelet modeling

We survey a number of applications of the wavelet transform in time series prediction. The Haar à trous wavelet transform is proposed as a means of handling time series data when future data is unknown. Results are exemplified on financial futures and S&P500 data. Nonlinear and linear multiresolution autoregressionmodels are studied. Experimentally, we show that multiresolution approaches can outperform the traditional single resolution approach to modeling and prediction.

对听觉滤波器组模型进行了研究。比较分析了伽马通(Gammatone)听觉滤波器组模型和基于小波分析的高斯小波听觉滤波器组模型,分别给出了预测听阈曲线并且与标准听闻曲线进行了比较,结果表明高斯小波听觉滤波器组模型更接近实际人耳滤波效果。将高斯小波听觉滤波器组模型的预测特征响度与德国朗德(Head Acoustics)公司的Artemis软件计算出的特征响度进行分析比较,结果表明,每个特征频带的响度差值都小于0.6 sone。
