چکیده
Approaches for digital halftoning of images using dithering threshold the input image with additive dithering noise. The paper presents a technique which thresholds the noise directly. The threshold is modified at each step such that the expected value of the output is equal to the input pixel’s gray value. Further, error feedback is used to correct the threshold. Tests on images show the method’s ability to retain features in the high frequency regions such as edges as well as low frequency features such as slow variations in intensity.

MAXIMUM SINR BEAMFORMING FOR CORRELATED SOURCES - Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 1995. ICASSP-95., 1995 International Conference on
AB-STRACT In this paper, we consider the signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) performance of several beamforming algorithms, taking particular account of the contribution of sources correlated with the desired signal. In addition, we derive an optimal method that maximizes SINR by combining with the desired signal estimate any components of the interference/multipaths that are correla...

Profound knowledge of the interaction between algorithms and digital signal processor (DSP) architectures is required to be able to efficiently design complex communications equipment. Whereas both algorithms and architecture find treatment in many courses individually, education focusing on design methodology for DSP implementation is found to be rare. This contribution describes a concept and...
متن کاملSequential homotopy-based computation of multiple solutions to nonlinear equations
IEEE Intl. Conf. Acoustics, Speech & Signal Processing (ICASSP) May 1995 Homotopy methods have achieved significant success in solving systems of nonlinear equations for which the number of solutions are known and the homotopy paths are bounded. We present a twostage homotopyprocess which does not require a-priori knowledge of the number of solutions to a system of nonlinear equations. This app...

Since January 1993, we have been working to refine and extend Sphinx-I1 technologies in order to develop practical speech recognition at Microsoft. The result of that work has been the Whisper (Windows Highly Intelligent Speech Recognizer). Whisper represents significantly improved recognition efficiency, usability, and accuracy, when compared with the Sphinx-I1 system. In addition Whisper offe...
متن کاملCOMPARISON OF A NEW HYBRID CONNECTIONIST-SCHMM APPROACH WITH OTHER HYBRID APPROACHES FOR SPEECH RECO - Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 1995. ICASSP-95., 1995 International Conference on
This paper compares a newly proposed hybrid connectionist-SCHMM approach [5] with other hybrid a p proaches. In the new approach a multilayer perceptron (MLP) replaces the conventional codebooks of semicontinuous HMMs. The MLP is therefore trained on s w d k d basic elements (phones and phone parts) in such a way that the outputs of the network estimate the a posteriori probabilities of these e...
