The noise removal as a preprocessing was tried with various kinds of wavelet pairs. Wavelet transform for 2D images generally uses the same wavelets as basis functions in horizontal and vertical directions. A method with different wavelets was tried for each direction separately, which gives more precise interpretation of the classification. Total 486 pairs of wavelets from nine basis functions were tried to remove image noises. The classification accuracies before and after the noise removal were compared. Although all kinds of wavelet pairs showed the increased accuracies in classification, there were best and worst wavelet pairs depending on the data sets. Wavelet pairs with low energy percentage of LL band showed the high classification accuracy. A pattern was found in the results that very similar vertical accuracy was distributed for each horizontal ones. Since Haar is the shortest length filter, Haar could be a predictor wavelet to find the good wavelet pairs.

We present a simple method to watermark three-dimensional (3D) triangular meshes that have been generated from the depth data of the Kinect sensor. In contrast to previous methods, which maintain the shape of 3D triangular meshes and decide the embedding place, requiring calculations of vertices and their neighbors, our method is based on selecting one of the coordinate axes. To maintain shape, we use discrete wavelet transform and constant regularization. We know that the watermarking system needs the information to be embedded; we used a text to provide that information. We used geometry attacks such as rotation, scales, and translation, to test the performance of this watermarking system. Performance parameters in this paper include the vertices error rate (VER) and bit error rate (BER). The results from the VER and BER indicate that using a correction term before the extraction process makes our system robust to geometry attacks.

In content based image retrieval (CBIR) system, the images are represented based upon its feature such as color, texture, shape, and spatial relationship etc. In this paper, we propose a MRI Image Retrieval using wavelet transform with mahalanobis distance measurement. Wavelet transformation can also be easily extended to 2-D (image) or 3-D (volume) data by successively applying 1-D transformation on different dimensions. The proposed algorithm has tested using wavelet transform and performance analysis have done with HH and $H^*$ elimination methods. The retrieval image is the relevance between a query image and any database image, the relevance similarity is ranked according to the closest similar measures computed by the mahalanobis distance measurement. An adaptive similarity synthesis approach based on a linear combination of individual feature level similarities are analyzed and presented in this paper. The feature weights are calculated by considering both the precision and recall rate of the top retrieved relevant images as predicted by our enhanced technique. Hence, to produce effective results the weights are dynamically updated for robust searching process. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is easily identifies target object and reduces the influence of background in the image and thus improves the performance of MRI image retrieval.

In the previous study, the Haar wavelet was used as the sole basis function for the 3D discrete wavelet transform because the number of bands is too small to decompose a remotely sensed image in band direction with other basis functions. However, it is possible to use other basis functions for wavelet decomposition in horizontal and vertical directions because wavelet decomposition is independently performed in each direction. This study aims to classify a high spatial resolution image with the six types of basis function including the Haar function and to compare those results. The other wavelets are more helpful to classify high resolution imagery than the Haar wavelet. In overall accuracy, the Coif4 wavelet has the best result. The improvement of classification accuracy is different depending on the type of class and the type of wavelet. Using the basis functions with long length could be effective for improving accuracy in classification, especially for the classes of small area. This study is expected to be used as fundamental information for selecting optimal basis function according to the data properties in the 3D DWT based image classification.

This paper focuses on lossy medical image compression methods for medical images that operate on three-dimensional(3-D) irreversible integer wavelet transform. We offer an application of unbalanced tree structure algorithm to medical images, using a 3-D unbalanced wavelet decomposition and a 3-D unbalanced spatial dependence tree. The wavelet decomposition is accomplished with integer wavelet filters implemented with the lifting method. We have tested our encoder on volumetric medical images using different integer filters and coding unit sizes. The coding unit sizes of 16 slices save considerable dynamic memory(RAM) and coding delay from full sequence coding units used in previous works. If we allow the formation of trees of different lengths, then we can accomodate more transaxial scales than three. The encoder and decoder can then keep track of the length of the tree in which each pixel resides through the sequence of decompositions. Results show that, even with these small coding units, our algorithm with certain filters performs as well and better in lossy coding than previous coding systems using 3-D integer unbalanced wavelet transforms on volumetric medical images.

This paper proposes the blind watermarking algorithm for digital video based on magnitude modulus subband in wavelet transform domain. After transforming each of frames into wavelet domain, the proposed algorithm divides LH, HL, and HH subbands of 2-level into $3{\times}3$ blocks and calculates average magnitude modulus of all blocks. Then the watermark bit is embedded into a target magnitude modulus comparing with an average magnitude modulus within a block. Experimental results were confirmed that the proposed algorithm has the good robustness against MPEG and frame attacks than the conventional algorithm.

동심원 모자이크 데이터 구조는 천천히 움직이는 카메라를 통해 얻는 비디오 시퀸스의 구조와 유사하다. 동심원 모자이크는 이러한 구조의 데이터들을 정렬하거나 합쳐서 모자이크 영상을 얻게 된다. 따라서 동심원 모자이크는 엄청나게 많은 양의 데이터를 필요로 하기 때문에 압축은 필수적이다. 따라서 압축 데이터를 그대로 유지하면서 특정 장면을 복호화 할 수 있는 알고리즘이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 동심원 모자이크의 압축을 위하여 3차원 리프팅 변환을 사용하였다. 리프팅 변환은 웨이브렛의 장점을 그대로 유지하면서 연산량과 메모리의 사용량을 줄일 수 있다. 3차원으로 변환된 압축 비트 스트림은 프레임들 사이에 복잡한 연관성을 갖게 되어 특정 장면의 검출에 대한 복잡도가 높아지게 된다. 따라서 비교적 우수한 압축 성능을 가지면서 특정 장면의 검출에 대한 복잡도를 낮추기 위해 3차원 변환된 데이터를 프레임 단위로 압축하였다 압축은 가변적인 비트율을 사용하여 압축된다. 또한 리프팅 구조의 특징을 사용하여 압축 데이터의 형태를 유지하면서 특정한 장면을 복호화 할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

ATM과 같은 광대역 통신망을 위한 영상 부호화기는 다해상도 영상의 지원과 영상의 점진적 전송, 셀손실로 인한 피해의 최소화 등 망의 특성을 고려해야만 한다. 기존의 변환 부호화기방식으로는 이런 특성의 고려가 불가능하며, 따라서 다해상도 부호화 기법이 요구된다. 다해상도 부호화 기법으로는 기존의 대역분할 부호화가 있으나, 최근에는 웨이브렛 변환을 이용한 방법이 각광을 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스플라인 함수를 이용하여 설계된 웨이브렛 기저를 사용하여 대역 분할을 시도하고, 분할된 각 대역 별로 엔트로피 제한 벡터 양지화를 행하는 다해상도 영상 부호화기를 생각해 본다. 특별히 광대역 망에서의 셀 손실을 대비하기 위해 스플라인 웨이브렛으로 변환된 영상의 대역별 특성을 분석하여, 각 대역별 우선 순위를 설정하는 방법을 제안한다. 실험 결과 제안한 부호화기는 기존의 일반적인 벡터양자화기보다 약 3dB 이상의 성능 향상을 보였고, 다른 웨이브렛 기저를 사용한 엔트로피 제한 벡터양자화기 보다는 비트율에 따라서 $0.5\sim2dB$ 정도의 성능 향상을 가져옴을 볼 수 있었다.

A two-degree-of-freedom quarter-car model is used as the basis for LQ and the proposed controller design for a semi-active suspension. The LQ controller results in the best rms performance trade-offs(as defined by performance index) between ride, handling and packaging requirements. In LQ controller, however, the conflict between road holding and ride comfort remains. The adaptive semi-active suspension control based on the road frequency are introduced in this paper. With this method, the trade-off between road holding and ride comfort can be relaxed. The road frequency is estimated by wavelet transform if rattle space signal. The simulation results show that the proposed controller is superior to the conventional LQ controller.
