In this paper, we present a fast hardware architecture to implement a parallel 2-dimensional discrete wavelet transform(DWT)based on the lifting scheme DWT framework. The conventional 2-D DWT had a long initial and total latencies to get the final 2D transformed coefficients because the DWT used an entire input data set for the transformation and transformed sequentially The proposed architecture increased the parallel performance at computing the row directional transform using new data splitting method. And, we used the hardware resource sharing architecture for improving the total throughput of 2D DWT. Finally, we proposed a scheduling of hardware resource which is optimized to the proposed hardware architecture and splitting method. Due to the use of the proposed architecture, the parallel computing efficiency is increased. This architecture shows the initial and total latencies are improved by 50% and 66%.

Objective : Daehwangmokdanpi-Tang (DWT) has been frequently used as a remedy for antiinflamation. To evaluate effect of acute pancreatitis by DWT, we examined the effects of DWT on the cholecystokinin-octapeptide (CCK)-induced acute pancreatitis (AP) in rats. Methods : Male Wistar rats weighing 200 to 250 g were divided into three groups. Normal untreated group, in treatment with DWT group; DWT was administered orally, followed by $75\;{\mu}g/kg$ CCK subcutaneously three times, after 1, 3 and 5 h. This whole procedure was repeated for 5 days. In treatment with saline group, the protocol was the same as in treatment group with DWT. Results : The author determined the pancreatic weight/body weight ratio, the levels of pancreatic HSP (heat shock protein)60 and HSP72 and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Repeated CCK treatment resulted in the typical laboratory and morphological changes of experimentally induced pancreatitis. DWT was significantly decreased the pancreatic weight/body weight ratio in CCK-induced AP. Futhermore, The author demonstrated that DWT increased HSP60 and HSP72 compared with CCK-induced AP. Additionally, the secretion of $IL-1{\beta}\;and\;TNF-{\alpha}$ and the levels of amylase and lipase were lower than that saline. Conclusions : These results suggested that DWT may has a protective effect against CCK-induced AP.

TMN5 used to test the performance of H.263 is a DCT-based H.263 which DCT is used as transform coding, but DWT is used instead of DCT and adaptive quantizer of being appropriate to DWT is designed in this paper while the structure of TMN5 is maintained. DWT-based H.263, which is proposed in this paper, is excellent in transplantation of the existing system and can improve frame rate by transmitting more Frame. Also, the average PSNR, objective quality of image, has been lost at degree of average 0.35㏈ in luminance signals, but has been improved over a average of 2㏈ in chrominance signals. Subjective quality of image has been improved as blocking effect, which has seriously occurred in DCT based H.263, is diminished. DWT-based H.263 can. therefore. advance video quality of image comparing with the existing ways.

The Wavelet Transform has been applied in mathematics and computer sciences. Numerous studies have proven its advantages in image processing and data compression, and have made it a basic encoding technique in data compression standards like JPEG2000 and MPEG-4. Software implementations of the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) appears to be the performance bottleneck in real-time systems in terms of performance. And hardware implementations are not flexible. Therefore, FPGA implementations of the DWT has been a topic of recent research. The goal of this thesis is to investigate of FPGA implementations of the DWT Processor for image compression applications. The DWT processor design is based on the Lifting Based Wavelet Transform Scheme, which is a fast implementation of the DWT The design uses various techniques. The DWT Processor was simulated and implemented in a FLEX FPGA platform of Altera

A combined DWT and DCT based watermarking technique of low frequency watermarking with weighted correction is proposed. The DWT has excellent spatial localization, frequency spread and multi-resolution characteristics, which are similar to the theoretical models of the human visual system (HVS). The DCT based watermarking techniques offer compression while DWT based watermarking techniques offer scalability. These desirable properties are used in this combined watermarking technique. In the proposed method watermark bits are embedded in the low frequency band of each DCT block of selected DWT sub-band. The weighted correction is also used to improve the imperceptibility. The extracting procedure reverses the embedding operations without the reference of the original image. Compared with the similar approach by DCT based approach and DWT based approach, the experimental results show that the proposed algorithm apparently preserves superiori mage quality and robustness under various attacks such as JPEG compression, cropping, sharping, contrast adjustments and so on.

Acoustic Emission(AE) is widely used for early detection of faults for rotating machinery in these days because of its high sensitivity. AE signal has to need for transferring to low frequency range for the spectrum analysis included the fault mechanism. In transferring process, we lose a lot of fault information caused by unusable signal processing method. Discrete Wavelet Transform(DWT) is a method of signal processing for AE signatures, but the pattern of its mother function is not optimized with AE signals. So, we can lose the fault information when we want to use the DWT for AE signal. Therefore, in this paper, we will propose a novel pattern for DWT mother function, which is optimized with AE signals. And it will be applied to compare the results of DWT by daubechie and novel pattern.

The 3D DWT(The Three Dimensional Discrete Wavelet Transform) scheme is potentially regarded as useful one on analyzing both spatial and spectral information. Nevertheless, few researchers have attempted to process or classified remotely sensed images using the 3D DWT. This study aims to apply the 3D DWT to the land cover classification of optical and SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) images. Then, their results are evaluated quantitatively and compared with the results of traditional classification technique. As the experimental results, the 3D DWT shows superior classification results to conventional techniques, especially dealing with the high-resolution imagery and SAR imagery. It is thought that the 3D DWT scheme can be extended to multi-temporal or multi-sensor image classification.

Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) is an effective technique that is commonly used for detecting noise in collected data of an individual sensor. In addition, the detection accuracy can be significant improved by exploiting the correlation in the data of neighboring sensors of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Principal component analysis is the powerful technique to analyze the correlation in the multivariate data. In this paper, we propose a DWT-PCA combination scheme for noise detection (DWT-PCA-ND). Experimental results on a real dataset show a remarkably higher performance of DWT-PCA-ND comparing to conventional PCA scheme in detection of noise that is a popular anomaly in collected data of WSN.

In this paper, we propose a novel blind digital watermarking method based on a cellular automata transform (CAT). CAT is based on dynamic systems known as cellular automata(CA) and uses transform bases which are differently defined by a rule number, the number of neighbors, the number of cells, and an initial state, etc. The proposed CAT based method is compared with a blind watermarking method based on DWT which is commonly used for a domain transform in signal processing. We analyse properties on changes of DWT coefficients and CAT coefficients under various attacks and determine optimal parameters for a watermarking method robust to attacks. The simulations show that the watermarked images with high PSNR and MSSIM look visually identical to originals and are robust against most of typical image processing attacks. Moreover, the proposed CAT based watermarking method is superior to the DWT based one in robustness to most of typical image processing attacks including JPEG compression, median and average filtering, scaling, cropping, and histogram equalization.

The most difficult of implementation PACS is large amount of data. Therefore, PACS needs mass storage, as well as rapid transmission time. Consequently, medical images needs compression when stored in PACS. WT(wavelet transform) was announced by Ingrid Daubechies and Stephane Mallat, WT was methods of signal analysis by a base functions set same as Fourie transform. This paper estimated an efficiency, that experimental medical images compressed by DWT. The result of estimated, we are knows effectiveness that display to remained signal in low frequency region after 4-level DWT form $512{\times}512{\times}2^8$ input images. Compression ratio of images by 4-level DWT was 1:16. It is a high compression ratio, the other side has a problem appears on staircase phenomenon.
