Keyword auctions are becoming increasingly important in today’s electronic marketplaces. One of their most challenging aspects is the limited amount of information revealed about other advertisers. In this paper, we present a particle filter that can be used to estimate the bids of other advertisers given a periodic ranking of their bids. This particle filter makes use of models of the bidding ...

A thin-film optical filter used as a one-dimensional spatial filter is presented, and its design is briefly examined. The filter consists of a stack of quarter-wave dielectric layers upon a right-angle prism that selectively cancel a reflected or transmitted plane-wave front for various angles of incidence. Transmittance and reflectance are low-pass functions or high-pass functions of the angle...

The principle of mathematical morphology and morphological operation filter are briefly introduced.A new signal processing method based on mathematical filter is presented.In order to remove non-linear noise in vibration signal, a kind of filter with structuring element adaptive,morphological opening and closing operators combination is designed.With moving structuring element,the signal can be...

A novel compact multiband microstrip EMI filter based on metamaterials is presented. The filter is implemented by means of splitrings resonators and complementary spiral sub-wavelength resonators, conveniently coupled to the victim transmission line. The suitable combination of these resonators allows us to design several stop-band frequency responses located at 900MHz (RFID UHF), 1.8GHz (GSM) ...

We present a theory for optimal filtering of infinite sets of random signals. There are several new distinctive features of the proposed approach. First, we provide a single optimal filter for processing any signal from a given infinite signal set. Second, the filter is presented in the special form of a sum with p terms where each term is represented as a combination of three operations. Each ...

Adaptive noise cancellation (ANC) technique can removes thermal and shaped wideband quantization noise from the output of sigma-delta modulator and improves SNR and SFDR ratios. ANC filter more than desired signal passes harmonics of input signal caused by analog element such as operational amplifier of the integrator without any suppression and this issue causes less increment in SNR and SFDR ...

A fuzzy approach is proposed here for restoring color images that are corrupted with additive noise. The proposed fuzzy approach consists of two sub-filters, where the first fuzzy sub-filter computes the fuzzy distances between the color components of the central pixel and its neighborhood using Gaussian combination membership function, and the second sub-filter corrects the pixels where color ...

This paper considers the problem of recursive filtering for linear discrete-time systems with uncertain observation. A new approximate adaptive filter with a parallel structure is herein proposed. It is based on the optimal mean square combination of arbitrary number of correlated estimates which is also derived. The equation for error covariance characterizing the mean-square accuracy of the n...

This paper presents The Electromagnetic Interference effect from power line noise in Multi Speciality Hospital to Bio-Medical signals. The study includes the design of Bio-Medical signal Generating circuits that is used to eliminate the power line noise from the signal. The Bio-Medical system basically is a combination of Instrumentation Amplifier, High pass filter, Low pass filter, and Notch f...

Although particle filter and its variants like KPF and UPF achieve great success in many visual tracking applications, they depend on local proposal distributions and hence always fall flat in cases of global object shift and large-scale object movement. To address this issue, we present the concept of global proposal distribution for particle filter with the inspiration from biological vision ...
