In the process of the sonar image textures produced, the orientation and scale factors are very significant. However, most of the related methods ignore the directional information and scale invariance or just pay attention to one of them. To overcome this problem, we apply Gabor wavelet to extract the features of sonar images, which combine the advantages of both the Gabor filter and traditional wavelet function. The mother wavelet is designed with constrained parameters and the optimal parameters will be selected at each orientation, with the help of bandwidth parameters based on the Fisher criterion. The Gabor wavelet can have the properties of both multi-scale and multi-orientation. Based on our experiment, this method is more appropriate than traditional wavelet or single Gabor filter as it provides the better discrimination of the textures and improves the recognition rate effectively. Meanwhile, comparing with other fusion methods, it can reduce the complexity and improve the calculation efficiency.

This study was carried out fusion-welded butt joints in SWS 490A high strength steel subjected to tensile test that load-deflection curve. The windowed or short-time Fourier transform(WFT or STFT) makes possible for the analysis of non-stationary or transient signals into a joint time-frequency domain and the wavelet transform(WT) is used to decompose the acoustic emission(AE) signal into various discrete series of sequences over different frequency bands. In this paper, for acoustic emission signal analysis to use a continuous wavelet transform, in which the Gabor wavelet base on a Gaussian window function is applied to the time-frequency domain. A wavelet transform is demonstrated and the plots are very powerful in the recognition of the acoustic emission features. As a result, the technique of acoustic emission is ideally suited to study variables which control time and stress dependent fracture or damage process in metallic materials.

The rigid body properties of a structure may be estimated easily if the mass-line of the structure could be taken exactly. However, the exact mass-line may be hard to be obtained exactly in experiments. The mass line value can be read from the mass line in frequency response function. However, the mass lines in the frequency response function sometimes show the fluctuation with frequency, and it cannot be read correctly. In this paper, the wavelet transform is applied to obtain the good mass line value. The mass line calculated by using wavelet transform has unique value and showed in the range of fluctuated values of frequency response function. The rigid body properties obtained by wavelet transform also showed better results than those by fourier transform.

In this paper, we propose a new image quality assessment scheme considering the human visual perception characteristics. A subjective quality assessment is obtained by the response of the receptive field in the primary visual cortex and a human's eye can't focus on all of the visual range in a moment. Take advantage of two facts above, we apply Gabor wavelet transform, which is well fit the receptive field in the cortex, to divided constant sized subblocks. Then a local distortion of the subblocks and a global distortion for the entire image are calculated in order. The proposed method has been evaluated using video test sequences provided by the Video Quality Experts Group (VQEG). The experimental results show that good correlation with human perception is obtained using the proposed metric, which is what we called GPSNR.

초음파 에코파형의 시간-주파수해석법으로 Wigner 분포와 웨이브렛 변환 등과 같은 새로운 신호처리 기법이 비파괴평가 분야에 널리 응용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 웨이브렛 변환(wavelet transform)에 의한 음속과 감쇠계수의 주파수의존성과 초음파 결함신호의 잡음제거의 유용성 유무를 실험적으로 검증하였다. Gabor 함수를 웨이브렛의 기본함수로 사용하였다. 초음파의 에코파형에 포함된 각 주파수성분의 속도와 감쇠계수의 주파수의존성을 추정할 수 있었으며, 초음파탐상에서 결함의 검출능 향상과 결함크기 산정의 정량화에 접근하기 위해 웨이브렛 변환에 의한 S/N비 신호처리 시뮬레이션 결과를 오스테나이트강 스테인레스 용접부에 가공한 EDM 노치의 초음파 결함신호에 적용한 결과 임상에코를 저감하고 S/N비를 개선하는 것이 가능하였다.

Recently, advance signal analysis which is called "Time-Frequency Analysis" has been developed. Wavelet and Wigner Distribution are used to the method. Wavelet transform(WT) is applied to time-frequency analysis of waveforms obtained by an ultrasonic pulse-echo technique. The Gabor function is adopted as the analyzing wavelet. Wavelet analysis method is an attractive technique for evolution of material characterization evoluation. In this paper, the feasibility of suppression of ultrasonic background noise signal using WT has been presented. These results suggest that ultrasonic background noise ginal can be suppressed and enhanced even for SNR of 20.8 dB. This property of the WT is extremely useful for the detecting flaw echos embedded in background noise.und noise.

최근 영상처리기술과 컴퓨터과학의 발달로 연령변화에 따른 얼굴형상 분류 방법은 일반적인 주제가 되었다. 사람의 연령별 얼굴분류는 생물학적 유전자와 오랜 생활의 식습관으로 인하여 얼굴 형상이 변하기 때문에 통계적 형상만으로 예측하기란 쉽지 않다. 본 논문에서는 Gobor 특징과 fuzzy SVM 기법을 이용하여 연령대별 얼굴분류 기법을 제안하였다. Gabor 웨이블릿 함수는 얼굴의 특징벡터를 구하기 위하여 사용되고 연령대별 얼굴형상 구분이 애매모호한 문제를 해결하기 위해 fuzzy SVM 기법을 이용하여 연령별 소속 함수를 정의하였다. 제안한 방법으로 연령별 소속함수에 따른 얼굴 분류 실험을 수행하였고 제안한 방법의 타당성을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 6개의 특징점을 이용하는 가버 웨이블릿 신경망 기반 적응 표정인식 시스템을 제안한다. 특징 추출부를 포함하는 초기 네트워크의 구성은 Levenberg-Marquardt 기반의 학습방법이 사용되며, 따라서 특징 추출부 결정에 있어서 경험적 요소를 배재시킬 수 있다. 또한 새로운 사용자에 대한 적응 네트워크를 구성하기 위해서 개선된 보상함수를 가지는 Q-학습과, 비지도 퍼지 신경망 모델을 사용하였다. Q-학습을 통해서는 개인 사용자에 대해 분리도가 좋은 특징벡터를 얻을 수 있는 가버필터 세트를 얻을 수 있으며, 퍼지 신경망을 통해서는 사용자의 얼굴변화에 맞게 인식기를 변화시킬 수 있다. 따라서 제안된 시스템은 사용자의 얼굴변화를 따라갈 수 있는 좋은 적응 성능을 보이고 있다.
