This study compares various transformation techniques for multifocus image fusion. Multi-focus image fusion is a procedure of merging multiple images captured at unalike focus distances to produce a single composite image with improved sharpness and clarity. In this research, the purpose is to compare different popular frequency domain approaches for multi-focus image fusion, such as Discrete Wavelet Transforms (DWT), Stationary Wavelet Transforms (SWT), DCT-based Laplacian Pyramid (DCT-LP), Discrete Cosine Harmonic Wavelet Transform (DC-HWT), and Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DT-CWT). The objective is to increase the understanding of these transformation techniques and how they can be utilized in conjunction with one another. The analysis will evaluate the 10 most crucial parameters and highlight the unique features of each method. The results will help determine which transformation technique is the best for multi-focus image fusion applications. Based on the visual and statistical analysis, it is suggested that the DCT-LP is the most appropriate technique, but the results also provide valuable insights into choosing the right approach.

Partial discharge (PD) measurements have emerged as a dominant investigative tool for condition monitoring of insulation in high voltage equipment. But the major problem behind them the PD signal is severely polluted by several noises like White noise, Random noise, Discrete Spectral Interferences (DSI) and the challenge lies with removing these noise from the onsite PD data effectively which leads to preserving the signal for feature extraction. Accordingly the paper is mainly classified into two parts. In first part the PD signal is artificially simulated and mixed with white noise. In second part the PD is measured then it is subjected to the proposed denoising techniques namely Translation Invariant Wavelet Transform (TIWT). The proposed TIWT method remains the edge of the original signal efficiently. Additionally TIWT based denoising is used to suppress Pseudo Gibbs phenomenon. In this paper an attempt has been made to review the methodology of denoising the PD signals and shows that the proposed denoising method results are better when compared to other wavelet-based approaches like Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), by evaluating five different parameters like, Signal to noise ratio, Cross-correlation coefficient, Pulse amplitude distortion, Mean square error, Reduction in noise level.

In this paper we propose a new scheme of watermarking using the discrete wavelet transform, the discrete cosine transform, and the performance evaluation function, which does not deteriorate image quality and have robustness to attacks such as compression and scaling. moreover even if a detected watermark, which is a bit sequence in this paper, has some error bits, it can be correctly recovered using correlation-based determination scheme.

This paper proposed an efficient memory scheduling method (E$^2$M$^2$) by which the real-time image compression using 2-dimensional discrete wavelet transform(2-D DWT) is possible in an FPGA chip. In this paper, we assumed that the 2-D DWT was performed as the Mallat-tree. After the memory mapping method was proved in software, the memory controller was designed for an commercial SDRAM IC.

In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for attenuating the background noises in acoustic signal. This algorithm improves the noise attenuation performance by using the FNN(: Full-connected Neural Network) deep learning algorithm instead of the existing adaptive filter after wavelet transform. After wavelet transforming the input signal for each short-time period, noise is removed from a single input audio signal containing noise by using a 1024-1024-512-neuron FNN deep learning model. This transforms the time-domain voice signal into the time-frequency domain so that the noise characteristics are well expressed, and effectively predicts voice in a noisy environment through supervised learning using the conversion parameter of the pure voice signal for the conversion parameter. In order to verify the performance of the noise reduction system proposed in this study, a simulation program using Tensorflow and Keras libraries was written and a simulation was performed. As a result of the experiment, the proposed deep learning algorithm improved Mean Square Error (MSE) by 30% compared to the case of using the existing adaptive filter and by 20% compared to the case of using the STFT(: Short-Time Fourier Transform) transform effect was obtained.

A heart sound algorithm, which separates the heart sound signal into four parts; the first heart sound, the systolic period, the second heart sound, and the diastolic period has been developed. The algorithm uses discrete intensity envelopes of approximations of the wavelet transform analysis method to the phonocard-iogram(PCG)signal. Heart sound a highly nonstation-ary signal, so in the analysis of heart sound, it is important to study the frequency and time information. Further more, Wavelet Transform provides more features and characteristics of the PCG signal that will help physician to obtain qualitative and quantitative measurements of the heart sound.

With the rapid growth of network distributions of digitized media(audio, image, and video), there is an urgent need for copyright protection. For now watermarking is a well-known technique for copyright protection of digital data. To embed a digital watermark to the image, discrete cosine transform(DCT) and wavelet transform are commonly used. In this paper, the performance of the DCT based watermarking technique and wavelet based watermarking technique were compared and the influences of the parameter a that decides the strength of the watermarking data were considered.

This paper presents an approach to detect premature ventricular contraction(PVC) using discrete wavelet transform and fuzzy neural network. As the input of the algorithm, we use 14 coefficients of d3, d4, and d5, which are transformed by a discrete wavelet transform(DWT). This paper uses a neural network with weighted fuzzy membership functions(NEWFM) to diagnose PVC. The NEWFM discussed in this paper classifies a normal beat and a PVC beat. The size of the window of DWT is $-31/360{\sim}+32/360$ second(64 samples) whose center is the R wave. Using the seven records of the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database used in Shyu's paper, the classification performance of the proposed algorithm is 99.91%, which outperforms the 97.04% of Shyu's analysis. Using the forty records of the M1T-BIH arrhythmia database used in Inan's paper, the classification performance of the proposed algorithm is 98.01%, which outperforms 96.85% of Inan's one. The SE and SP of the proposed algorithm are 84.67% and 99.39%, which outperforms the 82.57% and 98.33%, respectively, of Inan's study.
