The paper will give an overview of the mission of GalTeC and then concentrate on two main aspects. The first more detailed aspect, is the analysis of the key performance parameters for the Galileo system services and presenting a technical overview of methods and algorithms used. The second more detailed aspect, is the service volume prediction including service dimensioning using the Prediction tool. In order to monitor and validate the Galileo SIS performance for Open Service (OS) and Safety Of Life services (SOL) regarding the key performance parameters, different analyses in the SIS domain and User domain are considered. In the SIS domain, the validation of Signal-in-Space Accuracy SISA and Signal-in-Space Monitoring Accuracy SISMA is performed. For this purpose first of all an independent OD&TS and Integrity determination and processing software is developed to generate the key reference performance parameters named as SISRE (Signal In Space Reference Errors) and related over-bounding statistical information SISRA (Signal In Space Reference Accuracy) based on raw measurements from independent sites (e.g. IGS), Galileo Ground Sensor Stations (GSS) or an own regional monitoring network. Secondly, the differences of orbits and satellite clock corrections between Galileo broadcast ephemeris and the precise reference ephemeris generated by GalTeC will also be compared to check the SIS accuracy. Thirdly, in the user domain, SIS based navigation solution PVT on reference sites using Galileo broadcast ephemeris and the precise ephemeris generated by GalTeC are also used to check key performance parameters. In order to demonstrate the GalTeC performance and the methods mentioned above, the paper presents an initial test result using GPS raw data and GPS broadcast ephemeris. In the tests, some Galileo typical performance parameters are used for GPS system. For example, the maximum URA for one day for one GPS satellite from GPS broadcast ephemeris is used as substitution of SISA to check GPS ephemeris accuracy. Using GalTeC OD&TS and GPS raw data from IGS reference sites, a 10 cm-level of precise orbit determination can be reached. Based on these precise GPS orbits from GalTeC, monitoring and validation of GPS performance can be achieved with a high confidence level. It can be concluded that one of the GalTeC missions is to provide the capability to assess Galileo and general GNSS performance and prediction methods based on a regional and global monitoring networks. Some capability, of which first results are shown in the paper, will be demonstrated further during the planned Galileo IOV phase, the Full Galileo constellation phase and for the different services particularly the Open Services and the Safety Of Life services based on the Galileo Integrity concept.

We propose a unique client-driven music genre classification solution, that can identify the music genre using a deep convolutional neural network operating on the time-domain signal. The proposed method uses the client device (Jetson TX2) computational resources to identify the music genre. We use the industry famous GTZAN genre collection dataset to get reliable benchmarking performance. HTTP live streaming (HLS) client and server sides are designed locally to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. HTTP persistent broadcast connection is adapted to reduce corresponding responses and network bandwidth. The proposed model can identify the genre of music files with 97% accuracy. Due to simplicity and it can support a wide range of client hardware.

Recently, thumbnail techniques are required to index a high-performance video at digital convergence-based multimedia service like IPTV and DMB. Therefore a thumbnail extraction method in H.264/AVC bitstreams has been proposed. However, thumbnail quality deterioration problem at converting the general equation of spatial domain to frequency domain which is generated by not considering about H.264/AVC transform and quantization processing and rounding-off operation in intra prediction. In this paper, we propose a new thumbnail extraction method in H.264/AVC bitstreams. The proposed scheme is based on H.264/AVC core-transform for a thumbnail extraction in frequency domain, and probability theory, intra rounding-off error compensation. Through the implementation and performance evaluation, the subjective quality difference between the output of our scheme and the output of reference decoder is negligible and better than the conventional method, and moreover PSNR gain by up to 8.66 dB.

Most of the previous video watermarking algorithms cannot be supported by real-time video processing. The maul reason is that in order to develop a robust algorithm the watermarking technique requires a very high computational cost when embedding and extracting the watermark in various frequency domains. Previous embedding methods simultaneously try to compress a video by MPEG and embed a watermark supporting real-time processing. However, In this paper, our proposed algorithm can support real-time processing in both spatial and frequency domains. First. the watermark is created on the courier transform domain, and next is inverse-Fourier-transformed ; then, we directly embed it into the video frame In the spatial domain. This procedure does not require a lot of the computational cost during embedding because of the spatial domain processing. Also, it is possible to support a video stream service and a very robust algorithm from MPEG compression and various geometric attacks.

Language models are essential in predicting the next word in a spoken sentence, thereby enhancing the speech recognition accuracy, among other things. However, spoken language domains are too numerous, and therefore developers suffer from the lack of corpora with sufficient sizes. This paper proposes a method of combining two n-gram language models, one constructed from a very small corpus of the right domain of interest, the other constructed from a large but less adequate corpus, resulting in a significantly enhanced language model. This method is based on the observation that a small corpus from the right domain has high quality n-grams but has serious sparseness problem, while a large corpus from a different domain has more n-gram statistics but incorrectly biased. With our approach, two n-gram statistics are combined by extending the idea of Katz's backoff and therefore is called a dual-source backoff. We ran experiments with 3-gram language models constructed from newspaper corpora of several million to tens of million words together with models from smaller broadcast news corpora. The target domain was broadcast news. We obtained significant improvement (30%) by incorporating a small corpus around one thirtieth size of the newspaper corpus.

Recently, many researches on digital holograms, which retain almost perfect 3 dimensional image information, have been performed actively that it seems for them to be serviced soon. Accordingly, this paper proposes a data compression technique for a digital hologram video for this service. It uses H.265/HEVC, the most recent international 2 dimensional video compression standard, for which we consider various domain transform methods to increase the correlation among the pixels in a digital hologram. Also we consider the various parameters on H.265/HEVC. The purpose of this paper is to find empirically the optimal condition for the domain transform method, the size of transform unit, and the H.265/HEVC parameters. The proposed method satisfying the optimal parameter set found is compared to the existing methods to prove that ours shows better performance.

In this paper, we propose a parallel LDPCA encoding method for fast transform-domain Wyner-Ziv video encoding which is suitable in an ultra fast and low power video encoding. The conventional transform-domain Wyner-Ziv video encoding performs LDPCA channel coding of quantized transform coefficients in bitplane-serial fashion, which takes about 60% of total encoding time, and this computational complexity becomes severer as the bitrate increases. The proposed method binds several bitplanes into one packed message and carries out the LDPCA encoding in parallel. The proposed LDPCA encoding method improves the encoding speed by 8 ~ 55 times. In the experiment, the proposed Wyner-Ziv encoder can encode 700 ~ 2,300 QCIF size frames per second with GOP=64. The method can be applied to the pixel-domain Wyner-Ziv encoder using LDPCA, and has a wide scope of application.

In this paper, several methods which guarantee the seamless editing when the splicing is applied to the MPEG-2 system streams are described. In the MPEG-2 system standard, it is recommended that the splicing technique is applied in the Transport Stream(TS) domain. However, in view of the video editing, the splicing at an arbitrary picture unit can not be guaranteed. The splicing in the PES domain is only considered in this paper because the PES is one of the MPEG-2 system streams and this result could be directly extended to the video splicing techniques in the TS or PS domain. Thus. the problems that might occur when different two PES streams are spliced and its effects to the video quality are compared and analyzed. Based on this analysis. several methods that can resolve these problems directly in the PES domain are proposed. Consequently, the computer simulation demonstrates that the splicing at a GOP modulo is guaranteed to have good video quality even without considering the state of the PES packet only if the PES_packet_length field of the PES packet header is used.

In this paper we propose an adaptive fast image restoration filter, which is suitable for reducing the blocking artifacts in the compressed image in real-time. The proposed restoration filter is based on the observation that quantization operation in a series of coding process is a nonlinear and many-to-one mapping operator. And then we propose an approximated version of constrained optimization technique as a restoration process for removing the nonlinear and space varying degradation operator. We also propose a novel block classification method for adaptively choosing the direction of a highpass filter, which serves as a constraint in the optimization process. The proposed classification method adopts the bias-corrected maximized likelihood, which is used to determine the number of regions in the image for the unsupervised segmentation. The proposed restoration filter can be realized either in the discrete Fourier transform domain or in the spatial domain in the form of a truncated finite impulse response (FIR) filter structure for real-time processing. In order to demonstrate the validity of the proposed restoration filter experimental results will be shown.
