Efficient implementation of x-ray ghost imaging based on a modified compressive sensing algorithm

Towards efficient implementation of x-ray ghost imaging(XGI),efficient data acquisition and fast image reconstruction together with high image quality are preferred.In view of radiation dose resulted from the incident x-rays,fewer measurements with sufficient signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)are always anticipated.Available methods based on linear and compressive sensing algorithms cannot meet all the requirements simultaneously.In this paper,a method based on a modified compressive sensing algorithm with conjugate gradient descent method(CGDGI)is developed to solve the problems encountered in available XGI methods.Simulation and experiments demonstrate the practicability of CGDGI-based method for the efficient implementation of XGI.The image reconstruction time of sub-second implicates that the proposed method has the potential for real-time XGI.

A modified voice conversion algorithm using compressed sensing

A voice conversion algorithm,which makes use of the information between continuous frames of speech by compressed sensing,is proposed in this paper.According to the sparsity property of the concatenated vector of several continuous Linear Spectrum Pairs（LSP）in the discrete cosine transformation domain,this paper utilizes compressed sensing to extract the compressed vector from the concatenated LSPs and uses it as the feature vector to train the conversion function.The results of evaluations demonstrate that the performance of this approach can averagely improve 3.21%with the conventional algorithm based on weighted frequency warping when choosing the appropriate numbers of speech frame.The experimental results also illustrate that the performance of voice conversion system can be improved by taking full advantage of the inter-frame information,because those information can make the converted speech remain the more stable acoustic properties which is inherent in inter-frames.
