This paper presents a flexible hardware architecture for performing the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) on a digital image. The proposed architecture uses a variation of the lifting scheme technique and provides advantages that include small memory requirements, fixed-point arithmetic implementation, and a small number of arithmetic computations. The DWT core may be used for image processing o...

A circular concept involving use of faba bean hulls for production oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus (Jacq.) P. Kumm.) and the post-harvest residues feed purposes was evaluated. Faba are a waste remaining after beans dehulled to decrease content anti-nutritional factors increase food value beans. proved very suitable as substrate mushrooms, with biological efficiency 109 ± 28%. The fruiting...

in seismic exploration studies different types of techniques are used to recognize seismic features in terms of their temporal and spatial spectra. variations in frequency content are sensitive to subtle changes in reflection information (castro de matos et al., 2003). in this study the joint time-frequency analysis is used for seismic texture recognition. discrete wavelet transform (dwt) witho...

This paper presents field programmable gate array (FPGA) implementation of the forward/inverse discrete wavelet transform for denoising Fiber Optic Gyroscope (FOG) signal. In this work an extensive study on the effect of different threshold techniques of DWT algorithm are carried out denoising the FOG signal. Different architectures such as multiply and accumulate (MAC), Distributed Arithmetic ...

In this work a Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT)-based feature dimensionality reduced approach for fingerprint matching is proposed. The DCT is applied on a small region around the core point of fingerprint image. The performance of our proposed method is evaluated on a small database of Bologna University and two large databases of FVC2000. A dimensionally reduced feature vector is formed using ...

Digital images in their uncompressed form require an enormous amount of storage capacity. Such uncompressed data needs large transmission bandwidth for the transmission over the network. Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) is one of the widely used image compression method and the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) provides substantial improvements in the quality of picture because of multi resolutio...

It is important to detect abnormal brains accurately and early. The wavelet-energy (WE) was a successful feature descriptor that achieved excellent performance in various applications; hence, we proposed a WE based new approach for automated abnormal detection, and reported its preliminary results in this study. The kernel support vector machine (KSVM) was used as the classifier, and quantum-be...

This report reduces the total number of lifting steps in a three-dimensional (3D) double lifting discrete wavelet transform (DWT), which has been widely applied for analyzing volumetric medical images. The lifting steps are necessary components in a DWT. Since calculation in a lifting step must wait for a result of former step, cascading many lifting steps brings about increase of delay from in...

Automated grading system plays an important role in many industries. In ceramic industries, the grading of ceramic tiles is a difficult task as it has huge variations of surface properties. In this paper, automated surface grading system based on Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrices (GLCM) is presented. Texture information’s in ceramic tiles are effectively rep...
