Terrain referenced navigation(TRN) system is an attractive method for obtaining position based on terrain measurements and a terrain map. We focus on TRN systems based on the point mass filter(PMF) which is one of the recursive Bayesian method. In this paper, we propose two kinds of performance index for Bayesian filter. The proposed indices are based on entropy and mutual information from information theory. The first index measures roughness of terrain based on entropy of likelihood. The second index named by information gain, which is the mutual information between priori and posteriori distribution, is a quantity of information gained by updating measurement at each step. The proposed two indices are used to determine whether the solution from TRN is adequate for TRN/INS integration or not, and this scheme gives the performance improvement. Simulation result shows that the proposed indices are meaningful and the proposed algorithm performs better than normal TRN algorithm.

In this paper, a hagwon-bus boarding danger warning system based on computer vision is proposed to protect children from an accident causing injuries or death. Three zones are defined and different algorithms are applied to detect moving objects. In zone 1, a block-based entropy value is calculated using the absolute difference image generated by the absolute differential estimation between background image and incoming video frame. In zone 2, an effective and robust motion object tracking algorithm is performed based on the particle filter. Experimental results demonstrate the efficient and effectively of the algorithm for moving object inspection in each zone.

The para-unitary (PU) M band filter bank, which can beused for M band decomposition, has many useful properties. In this ppaer, attempts have been made to design and and analyze the linear phase para-unitary (LPPU) M band filter bank, which is appropriate to the image coding application. First, we derive a unified coding gain in terms of the correlation in the band, as well as the energy compaction. And M band filter bank has been designed, maximizing the new coding gain. Then, we analyze the image coding performance of the LPPU M band filter bank, such as the energy compaction, the correlation in the band and the entropy. From the analysis, it is shown that the coding gain for LPPU M band filter bank improves, and the coding gain for the LPPU 4 band filter bank approaches very closely to that for LPPU 8 band filter bank, as the length of the filter increases. This fact is also verified by the coding results on the real images.

Feature selection has become an essential technique to reduce the dimensionality of data sets. Many features are frequently irrelevant or redundant for the classification tasks. The purpose of feature selection is to select relevant features and remove irrelevant and redundant features. Applications of the feature selection range from text processing, face recognition, bioinformatics, speaker verification, and medical diagnosis to financial domains. In this study, we focus on filter methods based on information entropy : IG (Information Gain), FCBF (Fast Correlation Based Filter), and mRMR (minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance). FCBF has the advantage of reducing computational burden by eliminating the redundant features that satisfy the condition of approximate Markov blanket. However, FCBF considers only the relevance between the feature and the class in order to select the best features, thus failing to take into consideration the interaction between features. In this paper, we propose an improved FCBF to overcome this shortcoming. We also perform a comparative study to evaluate the performance of the proposed method.

KLT-AECQ 는 지각적인 성능 향상을 위하여 formant weighting 필터를 사용한다.Code Excited Linear Prediction(CELP) 코더는 사람의 음성신호를 압축하는 대표적인 방식이다. CELP 의 Rate-Distortion 성능을 향상 시키기 위해서 Karhunen-Loeve-Transform (KLT) 기반의 Classified Vector Quantization (KLT-CVQ) 방식이 제안되었으며, 이는 KLT 기반의 Adaptive Entropy-Constrained Quantization (KLT-AECQ) 방식으로 확장되었다. 기존의 KLT-AECQ 에서는 지각적인 성능 향상을 위하여 formant weighting 필터를 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 이 필터 대신에 Spectral Amplitude Warping (SAW) 필터를 적용함으로써, KLT-AECQ 코더의 지각적인 성능을 향상하였다.

We propose to use the entropy of power spectra defined in the frequency domain for the deconvolution of extended images. Spatial correlations requisite for extended sources may be insured by increasing the role of power entropy because the power is just a representation of spatial correlations in the frequency domain. We have derived a semi-analytical solution which is found to severely reduce computing time compared with other iteration schemes. Even though the solution is very similar to the well-known Wiener filter, the regularizingng term in the new expression is so insensitive to the noise characteristics as to assure a stable solution. Applications have been made to the IRAS $60{\mu}m\;and\;100{\mu}m$ images of the dark cloud B34 and the optical CCD image of a solar active region containing a circular sunspot and a small pore.

On the assumption that the voices of the cows are produced by the linear prediction filter, we characterized the cows’voices. The order of this filter was determined by examining the voice characteristics both in time and frequency domains. The proposed order of the linear prediction filter is 15 for modeling voice production of the cow. The characteristics of the amplitude envelope of the voice signal was investigated by analyzing the sequence of the short time variance both in time and frequency domains, and the new parameters were defined. One of the coefficients o the linear prediction filter generating the voice signal, the fundamental frequency, the slope of the straight line regressed from the log-log spectra of the short time variance and the coefficients of the linear prediction filter generating the sequence of the short time variance of the voice signal can differentiate the two cows.

Image restoration technique using dual sensor is presented in this paper. Digital Radiography image (1024xlO24) is obtained by conventional resolution sensor. We also obtain local DR image data by high resolution sensor. Two dimensional maximum entropy power spectrum estimation (2-D ME PSE) is applied to low resolution image and high resolution image for the purpose of the power spectrum estimation of each image. A class of linear algebraic restoration filter, parametric projection filter (PPF), is derived from the power spectrums of each image. It is shown that the noise energy may be considerably reduced through the PPF.

In many situations, radar targets are embedded in a clutter environment and clutter rejection is required. The clutter is unwanted radar echoes and may arise owing to reflections from ground and weather disturbances and statistical properties of the clutter vary with range and azimuth as well as time. That is, adaptive signal processing is required. In this paper, a clutter suppression algorithm based on the clutter whitening filter (WF) and doppler filter bank(DFB) is described which provides improved performance compared with conventional nonadaptive clutter suppression algorithm that is the cascaded moving target indicator (MTI) and (DFB). The clutter whitening filter algorithm is based on the Burg's maximum entropy method.

Kim and Lee (2005) suggested Minimum Entropy Deconvolution (MED) to estimate the temporal sequence of the relative recharge. However this study by Kim and Lee (2005) was just related to the verification of the conceptual approach with MED. In this study, we try to characterize the applicability of MED in the case of spatially heterogeneous recharge (distance from recharge area). Simulated results were recorded with some specific sampling points. Estimated results from this study show higher than 0.8 in cross-correlation with the original recharge sequence. In addition, the physical and mathematical meanings of the applied filter length was also investigated. It was revealed that the length of filter is highly related to the spatial distance between recharge area and the monitoring site, and the apparent shape of hydraulic head change.
