LMS(Least Mean Square) algorithm using steepest descent way in adaptive signal processing requires simple equation and is used widely because of the less complexity. But eigenvalues change by width of input signals in time domain, so the rate of convergence becomes low. In this paper, we propose a new fast running FIR filter structure that improves the convergence speed of adaptive signal processing and the same performance as the existing fast wavelet transform algorithm with less computational complexity. The proposed filter structure is applied to wavelet based adaptive algorithm. Simulation results show a better performance than the existing one.

The Genetic algorithm is a search algorithm using evaluation, genetic operator, natural selection to populational solution iteratively. The convergence and divergence characteristic of genetic algorithm are affected by selection strategy, generation replacement method, genetic operator when genetic algorithm is designed. This paper proposes fast convergence genetic algorithm for time-limited robot path planning. In urgent situation, genetic algorithm for robot path planning does not have enough time for computation, resulting in quality degradation of found path. Proposed genetic algorithm uses fast converging selection strategy and generation replacement method. Proposed genetic algorithm also uses not only traditional crossover and mutation operator but additional genetic operator for shortening the distance of found path. In this way, proposed genetic algorithm find reasonable path in time-limited situation.

This paper introduces robust tracking algorithm for fast and erratic moving object. CAMSHIFT algorithm has less computation and efficient performance for object tracking. However, the method fails to track a object if it moves out of search window by fast velocity and/or large movement. The size of the search window in CAMSHIFT algorithm should be selected manually also. To solve these problems, we propose an efficient prediction technique for fast movement of object using Kalman Filter with automatic initial setting and variable configuration technique for search window. The proposed method is compared to the traditional CAMSHIFT algorithm for searching and tracking performance of objects on test image frames.

In this paper, we propose a fast adaptive diamond search algorithm(FADS) for block matching motion estimation. Fast motion estimation algorithms reduce the computational complexity by using the UESA (Unimodal Error Search Assumption) that the matching error monotonically increases as the search moves away from the global minimum error. Recently many fast BMAs(Block Matching Algorithms) make use of the fact that the global minimum points in real world video sequences are centered at the position of zero motion. But these BMAs, especially in large motion, are easily trapped into the local minima and result in poor matching accuracy. So, we propose a new motion estimation algorithm using the spatial correlation among the adjacent blocks. We change the origin of search window according to the spatially adjacent motion vectors and their MAE(Mean Absolute Error). The computer simulation shows that the proposed algorithm has almost the same computational complexity with UCBDS(Unrestricted Center-Biased Diamond Search)〔1〕, but enhance PSNR. Moreover, the proposed algorithm gives almost the same PSNR as that of FS(Full Search), even for the large motion case, with half the computational load.

We introduce the Energy-Based Blind Separating (EBS) algorithm for extremely fast separation of mixed speech signals without loss of quality, which is performed in two stages: iterative-form separation and closed-form separation. This algorithm significantly improves the separation speed simply due to incorporating only some specific frequency bins into computations. Simulation results show that, on average, the proposed algorithm is 43 times faster than the independent component analysis (ICA) for speech signals, while preserving the separation quality. Also, it outperforms the fast independent component analysis (FastICA), the joint approximate diagonalization of eigenmatrices (JADE), and the second-order blind identification (SOBI) algorithm in terms of separation quality.

In a the present day, many vision inspection techniques are used in productive industrial areas. In particular, in the semiconductor industry the vision inspection system for wafers is a very important system. Also, inspection techniques for semiconductor wafer production are required to ensure high precision and fast inspection. In order to achieve these objectives, parallel processing of the inspection algorithm is essentially needed. In this paper, we propose the GPU (Graphical Processing Unit)-based parallel processing algorithm for the fast inspection of semiconductor wafers. The proposed algorithm is implemented on GPU boards made by NVIDIA Company. The defect detection performance of the proposed algorithm implemented on the GPU is the same as if by a single CPU, but the execution time of the proposed method is about 210 times faster than the one with a single CPU.

Matching pursuit algorithm is a signal expansion technique whose efficiency for motion compensated residual image has already been demonstrated in the MPEG-4 framework. However, one of the practical concerns related to applying matching pursuit algorithm to real-time scalable video coding is its massive computation required for finding dictionary elements. In this respective, this paper proposes a fast algorithm, which is composed of three sub-methods. The first method utilizes the property of symmetry in 1-D dictionary element and the second uses mathematical elimination of inner product calculation in advance, and the last one uses frequency property of 2-D dictionary. Experimental results show that our algorithm needs about 30% computational load compared to the conventional fast algorithm using separable property of 2-D gabor dictionary with negligible quality degradation.

We presents an edge-based point correlation algorithm for fast and stable visual inspection system. Conventional algorithms based on NGC(normalized gray-level correlation) have to overcome some difficulties in applying automated inspection systems to real factory environment. First of all, NGC algorithms involve highly complex computation and thus require high performance hardware for realtime process. In addition, lighting condition in realistic factory environments is not stable and therefore intensity variation from uncontrolled lights gives many troubles for applying NGC directly as pattern matching algorithm. We propose an algorithm to solve these problems, using thinned and binarized edge data, which are obtained from the original image. A point correlation algorithm with the thinned edges is introduced with image pyramid technique to reduce the computational complexity. Matching edges instead of using original gray-level image pixels overcomes problems in NGC method and pyramid of edges also provides fast and stable processing. All proposed methods are proved by the experiments using real images.

This paper deals with the FC-MMA (Fast Convergence-Multi Modulus Algorithm) which is improving the convergence characteristics of the MMA (Multiple Modulus Algorithm) adaptive equalization algorithm that is used for the minimization of the intersymbol interference which occurs in the time dispersive communication channel. In the time varying charateristics and the abnormal situation like as outage of the communication channel, the adaptive equalizer needs to adapting the new environment more rapidly. For this problem, the residual isi and the maximum distortion performance index which are meaning the convergence characteristics are widely adapted in the adaptive equalizer. The 16-QAM signal is transmitted and it was confirmed that the proposed algorithm, the FC-MMA has the fast convergence performance such as in the 1.75 times fast in residual isi and 2.5 times fast in the maximum distortion in order to reaching the steady state compare to the MMA algorithm in the same channel environment by the computer simulation.

A fast and efficient search algorithm to determine an optimal number of clusters in clustering algorithms is presented. The method is based on cluster validity index which is a measure for clustering optimality. As the clustering procedure progresses and reaches an optimal cluster configuration, the cluster validity index is expected to be minimized or maximized. In this Paper, a fast non-exhaustive search method for finding the optimal number of clusters is designed and shown to work well in clustering. The proposed algorithm is implemented with the k-mean++ algorithm as underlying clustering techniques using CB and PBM as a cluster validity index. Experimental results show that the proposed method provides the computation time efficiency without loss of accuracy on several artificial and real-life data sets.
