Algebraic Riccati equation and J-spectral factorization for estimation

In this paper we investigate on the existence of the stabilizing solution of the algebraic Riccati equation (ARE) related to the filtering problem with a prescribed attenuation level γ. It is well known that such a solution exists and is positive definite for γ larger than a certain γ_F and it does not exist for γ smaller than a certain γ₀. We consider the intermediate case γ(γ₀,γ_F] and show that in this interval the stabilizing solution does exist, except for a finite number of values of γ. We show how the solution of the ARE may be employed to obtain a minimum-phase J-spectral factor of the J-spectrum associated with the filtering problem.     

Detecting image orientation based on low-level visual content

Accurately and automatically detecting image orientation is of great importance in intelligent image processing. In this paper, we present automatic image orientation detection algorithms based on both the luminance (structural) and chrominance (color) low-level content features. The statistical learning support vector machines (SVMs) are used in our approach as the classifiers. The different sources of the extracted image features, as well as the binary classification nature of SVM, require our system to be able to integrate the outputs from multiple classifiers. Both static combiner (averaging) and trainable combiner (also based on SVMs) are proposed and evaluated in this work. Furthermore, two rejection options (regular and re-enforced ambiguity rejections) are employed to improve orientation detection accuracy by sieving out images with low confidence values during the classification. Large amounts of experiments have been conducted on a database of more than 14,000 images to validate our approaches. Discussions and future directions for this work are also addressed at the end of the paper.     

Parallel Processing of First Order Linear Recurrence on SMP Machines

In this paper, we propose a new algorithm that analyzes the data dependency pattern in the first-order linear recurrence (FOLR) and transforms it into algebraically equivalent expanded form so that it can be processed in parallel using the threads on symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) machines. The transformation aims to eliminate the data dependencies in the naive nested form of the FOLR. However, as this transformation may result in extra multiplication operations, our algorithm examines the immanent overhead of the expanded form of the FOLR and generates a new hybrid form of the FOLR. The hybrid form combines nested and appropriately expanded form in order to make it suitable for parallel processing. The parallel algorithm based on the hybrid form of the FOLR is analytically examined and tested through implementation on SMP machines. The implementation details, such as the workload balancing between processors and the optimization of cache performance, are also discussed. The experimental results show that the parallel algorithm based on the hybrid form of the FOLR considerably improves the performance on SMP machines that have three of more processors.
