Image sequences from functional neuroimaging experiments with 3-D magnetic resonance scans of the human brain were wavelet transformed using a variety of orthogonal and biorthogonal wavelet filters with different treatments of the image borders. Contrary to the expectation that higher-order wavelets with more sophisticated boundary treatments would yield better compression, simple Haar wavelets...

In this paper we consider the Easy Path Wavelet Transform (EPWT) on spherical triangulations. The EPWT has been introduced in [7] in order to obtain sparse image representations. It is a locally adaptive transform that works along pathways through the array of function values and exploits the local correlations of the data in a simple appropriate manner. In our approach the usual one-dimensiona...

Iris recognition is one of the most accurate biometric methods in use today. However, the iris recognition algorithms are currently implemented on general purpose sequential processing systems, such as generic central processing units (CPUs). One of the remaining problems in iris recognition is the implementation of its efficient hardware systems. This proposed work uses a hardware Beagleboard-...

We study the general problem of oblique projections in discrete shift-invariant spaces of 12 and we give error bounds on the approximation. We define the concept of discrete multiresolutions and wavelet spaces and show that the oblique projections on certain subclasses of discrete multiresolutions and their associated wavelet spaces can be obtained using perfect reconstruction filter banks. The...

Received Oct 30, 2014 Revised Dec 29, 2014 Accepted Jan 15, 2015 A reliable monitoring of industrial drives plays a vital role to prevent from the performance degradation of machinery. Today’s fault detection system mechanism uses wavelet transform for proper detection of faults, however it required more attention on detecting higher fault rates with lower execution time. Existence of faults on...
