At the beginning of adaptation the algorithmjust uses its current coefficient vector to update the adaptive filter to maintain fast convergence rate,while in steady state it employs several most recent coefficient vectors to update the adaptive filter to reduce misalignment. Simulation results showthat the proposed algorithmcan obtain both fast convergence rate and small steady-state misalignment.展开更多

Gabor schemes and support vector machine (SVM) method have been proven effective in image representation and clas-sification. In this paper, we propose a retrieval scheme based on Gabor filters and SVMs for hepatic computed tomography (CT) images query. In our experiments, a batch of hepatic CT images containing several types of CT findings are used for the retrieval test. Precision comparison between our scheme and existing methods is presented.展开更多

A channel friction parameter inversion method based on Kalman Filter with unknown parameter vector is proposed. Numerical simulations indicate that when the number of monitoring stations exceeds a critical value, the so lution is hardly affected. In addition, Kalman Filter with unknown parameter vector is effective only at unsteady state. For the nonlinear equations, computations of sensitivity matrices are time-costly. Two simplified measures can reduce computing time, but not influence the results. One is to reduce sensitivity matrix analysis time, the other is to substitute for sensitivity matrix.展开更多

As the disparity of multipaths, it is facing a great challenge to solve the disorder of the received data packets. To lighten the reordering degree and then to improve the throughput performance, we need to estimate the real-time paths' bandwidth and round trip time(RTT) as exactly as possible. In this paper, we use the extended vector(ext-vec) Kalman filter(KF) to predict the available bandwidth and RTT of each path simultaneously. Based on this, we propose a predictive path selection algorithm for CMT in SCTP. To simulate and compare the algorithms' performance, two kinds of scenarios, bandwidth sensitive scenario and time and bandwidth sensitive scenario, are built and NS-2 is used. The simulation results show that the path selection algorithm can lessen the data packets disordering by correctly predicting each path's bandwidth and RTT in real time. Comparing the existing algorithms, the algorithm can converge more quickly and can improve the system total throughput in a certain extent in bandwidth sensitive scenario. To time and bandwidth sensitive scenario, it can greatly improve the convergence speed and total throughput.展开更多

However, since the VMF cannot identify thin lines during the denoising process, many thin lines may be removed out as noise. This serious problem can be solved by a newly proposed filter that uses a noise detector to find these thin lines and then keep them unchanged. In this new approach, the noise detection scheme applied on a current processed pixel is realized through counting the close pixels in its eight neighbor positions and the expanded window to see whether the current pixel is corrupted by impulse noise. Based on the previous outputs, our algorithm can increase the performance in detecting and canceling the impulse noise. Extensive ex- periments indicate that this approach can be used to remove the impulse noise from a color image without distorting the useful information.展开更多
