Pixel classification is one of basic image processing issues. The general characteristics of the pixels belonging to various classes are discussed and the radical principles of pixel classification are given. At the same time. a pixel classification scheme based on image direction measure is proposed. As a typical application instance of pixel classification, an adaptive multi-level median filter is presented. An image can be classified into two types of areas by using the direction information measure, that is. smooth area and edge area. Single direction multi-level median filter is used in smooth area. and multi-direction multi-level median filter is taken in the other type of area. What's more. an adaptive mechanism is proposed to adjust the type of the filters and the size of filter window. As a result. we get a better trade-off between preserving details and noise filtering.

In this paper, a multi-adaptive filter is proposed for removing EOG and the 60 Hz power supply noise from EEG measured in the frontal lobe and the feedback output control method is implemented for biofeedback. The multi-adaptive filter has been implemented on the TMS320C6711 DSP system and the feedback output control algorithm has been realized by calculating the ratio of alpha wave on the TMS320C31 DSP system with real time performance. Through the experiment using the implemented multi-adaptive filter and feedback output controller, we demonstrate that the proposed adaptive filter effectively removes EOG and the 60 Hz power supply noise from the measured EEG in the frontal lobe and the feedback algorithm controls the level of stimulation by the ratio of the alpha wave.

In this paper, we propose the adaptive Odd/Even Multi-shell Median Filter(adaptive O/E MMF) to improve the defect that Modified Multi-shell Median Filter(MMMF) can not recover missing lines of vertical and cross direction. This filter uses odd/even multi-shells and new proposed threshold strategy The performance of the proposed filter is evaluated over image 'airfield 'by using MATLAB. As the proposed threshold strategy eliminate the number of redundant replacement, it suppresses impulse noise and recovers missing lines.

An adaptive IIR filter in ANC(Active Noise Control) systems is more effective than an adaptive FIR filter when acoustic feedback exists, in which cause an order of an adaptive FIR filter must be very large if some of poles of the ideal control filter are near the unit circle. But the IIR filters may have stability problems especially when the adaptive algorithm for adaptive filters is not yet converged. In this paper, a stabilized multi-channel recursive LMS (MCRLMS) algorithm for an adaptive multi-channel IIR filter is presented. RLMS algorithms usually diverge before the algorithm is not yet converged. So, in the beginning of the ANC system, the stability of the RLMS algorithms could be improved by pulling the poles of the IIR filter to the center of the unit circle, and returning the poles to their original positions after the filter converges. Computer simulations and experiments for dipole ducts using a TMS320C32 digital signal processor have performed to show the effectiveness of a proposed algorithm.

An adaptive Odd/Even Multi-shell Median Filter(Adaptive O/E MMF) is proposed by using a adaptive threshold strategy and odd/even multishells. This algorithm was verified in MATLAB and implemented on FPGA. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated by adding impulse noise and line missing into well-known images. A proposed adaptive threshold strategy may reduce the computation time and redundant arrangement. odd and even multishells can recover line missing of vertical and diagonal directions respectively Therefore, the algorithm proposed in this work can be effectively used in real time image processing applications.

An integration system with multi-measurement sets can be realized via combined application of a centralized and federated Kalman filter. It is difficult for the centralized Kalman filter to remove a failed sensor in comparison with the federated Kalman filter. All varieties of Kalman filters monitor innovation sequence (residual) for detection and isolation of a failed sensor. The innovation sequence, which is selected as an indicator of real time estimation error plays an important role in adaptive mechanism design. In this study, the centralized Kalman filter with adaptive measurement fusion is introduced by means of innovation sequence. The objectives of adaptive measurement fusion are automatic isolation and recovery of some sensor failures as well as inherent monitoring capability. The proposed adaptive filter is applied to the GPS/SDINS integration system with an additional sensor. Simulation studies attest that the proposed adaptive scheme is effective for isolation and recovery of immediate sensor failures.

In this study, we proposed an adaptive feedback cancellation algorithm for multi-band digital healing aids. The adaptive feedback canceller (AFC) is composed of an adaptive notch filter (ANF) for feedback detection and an NLMS (normalized least mean square) adaptive filter for feedback cancellation. The proposed feedback cancellation algorithm is combined with a multi-band hearing aid algorithm which employs the MDCT (modified discrete cosine transform) filter bank for the frequency-dependent compensation of hearing losses. The proposed algorithm together with the MDCT-based multi-channel hearing aid algorithm has been evaluated via computer simulations and it has also been implemented on a commercialized DSP board for real-time verifications.

In active noise control filter, IIR filter structure which used for control filter assures the stability property. The stability characteristics of IIR filter structure is mainly determined by pole location of control filter within unit disc, so stable selection of the value of control filter coefficient is very important. In this paper, we proposed novel adaptive stabilized Filtered_U LMS algorithms with IIR filter structure which has better convergence speed and less computational burden than conventional FIR structures, for multi-channel active noise control with vehicle enclosure signal case. For better convergence speed in adaptive algorithms, fuzzy LMS algorithms where convergence coefficient computed by a fuzzy PI type controller was proposed.

In this paper, we designed two preprocessing adaptive filter - high pass filter and notch filter - using FPGA. For minimizing the calculation load of multi-channel and high-resolution ECG system, we utilize FPGA rather than digital signal processing chip. To implement the designed filters in FPGA, we utilize FPGA design tool(Altera corporation, MAX-PLUS II) and CSE database as test data. In order to evaluate the performance in terms of processing time, we compared the designed filters with the digital filters implemented by ADSP21061(Analog Devices). As a result, the filters implemented by FPGA showed better performance than the filters based on ADSP21061. As a consequence of examination, we conclude that FPGA is a useful solution in multi-channel and high-resolution signal processing.
