The algorithm presented in this paper is comprised of three main stages: (1) classification of the image sequence and, in the case of a moving camera, parametric motion estimation, (2) change detection having as reference a fixed frame, an appropriately selected frame or a displaced frame, and (3) object localization using local colour features. The image sequence classification is based on sta...

A wavelet-based speech enhancement algorithm for removing additive background noise from a single channel of noisy speech is proposed. In the algorithm, the enhancement is performed on a frame-by-frame basis, and each frame is classified into either voiced or unvoiced frame to deterimine the appropriate threshold in removing noise. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated on Auror...

begin{abstract} in this paper, we introduce an iterative method for amenable semigroup of non expansive mappings and infinite family of non expansive mappings in the frame work of hilbert spaces. we prove the strong convergence of the proposed iterative algorithm to the unique solution of a variational inequality, which is the optimality condition for a minimization problem. the results present...

A novel algorithm to extract moving objects from video sequences is proposed in this paper. The proposed algorithm employs a flashing system to obtain an alternate series of lit and unlit frames from a single camera. For each unlit frame, the proposed algorithm synthesizes the corresponding lit frame using a motion-compensated interpolation scheme. Then, by comparing the unlit frame with the li...

In previous papers authors have considered agents as inertia-less self driven particles and designed a flocking algorithm. Application of this algorithm to agents with considerable inertial characteristics needs a behavioural controller. The controller uses the local information and helps every agent to imitate the desired behaviour as a member of the flocking frame which covers the main is...

The JVT-G012 rate control algorithm for H.264 video encoding can get high encoding efficiency. But the algorithm has disadvantage that the target bit allocation in the frame layer is uniform according to the buffer residual bits. This paper presents a new method which uses a content complexity quotiety of frame for allocating target bits in the frame layer more accurately. The content complexit...

This paper presents a technique for object tracking by using CAMSHIFT algorithm that tracks an object based on color. We aim to improve the CAMSHIFT algorithm by adding a multiple targets tracking function [1].When one object is selected as a template, it will search objects that have the same hue value and shape by shape recognition. Hence, the inputs of the algorithm are hue values and shape ...

The algorithm of wavelet decomposition and reconstruction are applied in the audio error concealment method in this paper. When there is lost frame of the audio signal, the correct frames which lie before and after the lost frame are wavelet decomposed firstly. Then the two sets of the wavelet coefficients obtained from the wavelet decomposition are utilized to get the wavelet coefficients for ...

We propose a frame timing acquisition algorithm for fractal modulation in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels. Our algorithm exclusively uses the data redundancy inherent in fractal modulation to locate the start time of all the sub-bands (start-of-frame). The acquisition functions are derived using the maximum-likelihood method and the start-of-frame that maximizes the function attai...

The predictive hierarchical level of detail optimization algorithm of Mason and Blake is experimentally evaluated in the form of a practical application to hierarchical radiosity. In a novel approach the recursively subdivided patch hierarchy generated by a perceptually refined hierarchical radiosity algorithm is treated as a hierarchical level of detail scene description. In this way we use th...
