We consider the problem of recovery of a scene recorded through a semirefective medium from its mixture with a virtual reflected image using the blind source separation (BSS) framework. We extend the Sparse ICA (SPICA) approach and apply it to the separation of the desired image from the superimposed images, without having any a priory knowledge about its structure and/or statistics. Advances i...

In this paper a blind source separation algorithm in reverberant environment is presented. The algorithms working in such adverse environments are usually characterized by a huge computational cost. In order to reduce the computational complexity of this kind of algorithms a partitioned frequency domain approach is proposed. Several experimental results are shown to demonstrate the effectivenes...

a new approach for propulsion system layout that increases power and enhances the efficiency of submarine propulsion system is proposed.using our method,the efficiency and power of the system enhances without increasing volume and weight. this layout improves the performance compared to the usual layout, which employs double-armature motors in cruise speed where efficiency is more critical. thi...

in this study, performance of oil droplet separator in crankcase ventilation system for three engines, ford-ecoboost (impactor with variable area), nissan-vq37de (inertial impactor), and peugeot-xu7 (cyclone) at the same volumetric flow rate has been studied experimentally. because of the complexities of geometrical and functional in internal combustion engines, a test rig is designed to study ...

a microporous bisphenol a diglycidyl ether (dgeba) epoxified-polyethersulfone (pes) blend membrane (epes membrane) was prepared through dry-wet phase inversion. this study attempts to correlate the changes in membrane physical and chemical properties when the epes membranes were exposed to different durations of dry-phase inversion, towards the separation efficiency of carcinogen chromium (vi)....

A new chromatographic procedure was proposed for the separation of propranolol (PRN) enantiomers based upon enantioselective chiral ligand-exchange chromatography. The separation was carried out on a short C8 column leading to considerably short separation time. L-alanine and Cu2+ were applied as chiral selector and central bivalent complexing ion, respectively. It was found that the kind of co...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a non-parametric method for evaluating the relative technical efficiency for each member of a set of peer decision making units (dmus) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. the original dea models use positive input and output variables that are measured on a ratio scale, but these models do not apply to the variables in which interval scale data can appe...

We focus on the feasibility of the source separation in the frequency domain. First, it is linked with the convergence speed towards gaussianity of signals after L-point discrete Fourier Transform. We test here a distance to gaussianity thanks to the spectral kurtosis. We analyse the influence of L, of the duration of the source tricorrelations and of a non linear filtering. We mainly develop t...
