High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) adopts intra transform skip mode, in which a residual block is directly quantized in the pixel domain without transforming the block into the frequency domain. Intra transform skip mode provides a significant coding gain for screen content. However, when intra-prediction errors are not transformed, the errors are often correlated along the intra-prediction direction. This paper introduces a residual differential pulse code modulation (DPCM) method for the intra-predicted and transform-skipped blocks to remove redundancy. The proposed method performs pixel-by-pixel residual prediction along the intra-prediction direction to reduce the dynamic range of intra-prediction errors. Experimental results show that the transform skip mode's Bjøntegaard delta rate (BD-rate) is improved by 12.8% for vertically intra-predicted blocks. Overall, the proposed method shows an average 1.2% reduction in BD-rate, relative to HEVC, with negligible computational complexity.

The Fractional Fourier transform, as a generalization of the classical Fourier Transform, was first introduced in quantum mechanics. Because of its simple and useful properties of Fractional Fourier transform in time-frequency plane, various research results in sonar and radar signal processing have been introduced and shown superior results to conventional method utilizing Fourier transform until now. In this paper, we applied Fractional Fourier transform to sonar signal processing to detect and separate the overlapping linear frequency modulated signals. Experimental results show that received overlapping LFM(Linear Frequency Modulation) signals can be detected and separated effectively in Fractional Fourier transform domain.

The conventional fractal image compression based on wavelet transform has the disadvantage that the encoding takes many time, since it finds the optimum domain for all the range blocks. In this paper, we propose the fractal image compression based on wavelet transform using the SAS(Self Affine System) techniques. It consists of the range and domain blocks in the wavelet transform, and the range blocks select the domain which is located the relatively same position. In the encoding process, the proposed methods introduce SAS techniques that the searching process of the domains blocks is not required. Therefore, it can perform a fast encoding by reducing the computational complexity. And, the image quality is improved using the different scale factors for each level and the sub-tree in the decoding. As a result, the image quality and the compression ratio are adjustable by the scale factors.

Spectral analysis is an important signal processing tool for time series data. The transformation of a time series into the frequency domain is the basis for a significant number of processing algorithms and interpretive methods. Recently developed transforms based on the new mathematical field of wavelet analysis bypass the resolution limitation and offer superior spectral decomposition. The discrete wavelet transform of Sonar data provides spectral localization of noises, hence noises can be filtered out successfully.

Acoustic Echo Canceller (AEC) is a signal processing system for removing unwanted echo signals in teleconference and hands-free communication. Least mean square (LMS) algorithm is one of the adaptive echo cancellation algorithms and it has been most attractive because of its simplicity and robustness. However, the convergence properties of the LMS algorithm degrade with highly correlated input signals such as speech. For this reason, transform-domain adaptive filtering algorithm was introduced to decorrelate the colored input samples by using the orthogonal transform matrix such as DCT, DFT and then LMS adaptive filtering process is applied. In this paper, we propose a MLT domain adaptive echo canceller base on the MLT (Modulated lapped Transform) orthogonal transform matrix. The proposed algorithm achieves high decorrelation efficiency and fast convergence speed via modulated lapped transform of size 2NXN instead of NXN unitary transform such as DCT, DFT, Hadamad and it is applied to the acoustical echo cancellation system. Form the computer simulation with both synthesis and real speech, the proposed MLT domain adaptive echo canceller shows approximately twice faster convergence speed and 20∼30 ㏈ ERLE improvements over the DCT frequency domain acoustic echo cancellation system.

In video coding at high compression rate, factal compression schemes in spatial domain have outstanding blocking artifacts and compression schemes in wavelet transform domain have rinfing artifacts at edges. In order to compensate these disadvantages, we propose a fractal video coding in wavelet transrorm domain which leads to clear edges without blocking atrifacts even at high bompression rate. The proposed method performs variable block sized motion estimation by using correlation among different subbands. Then the wavelet coefficients which are not enoded dffectively by the motion estimation are compressed by inter-frame fractal coding which predicts fine scale subbands hierarchically from the next coarser scale subbands. Computer sumulations with sev-eral test images wequences show that the proposed method shows better performance than the conventional video coding methods using fractal and wavelet.

In this paper, we propose a mechanism to transform more effective and semantically equivalent queries by using appropriately represented three kinds of knowledge. Also we proposed a mechanism which transforms partially omitted components or expressions into complete queries so that users can use more simple queries. The knowledges used to transform and optimize are semantic, structural and domain knowledge. Semantic knowledge includes semantic integrity constraints and domain integrity constraints. Structural knowledge represents physical relationship between relations. And domain knowledge maintains the domain information of attributes. The proposed system optimizes to more effective queries by eliminating/adding/replacing unnecessary or redundant restrictions/joins.

A hybrid color and grayscale images encryption scheme based on the quaternion Hartley transform (QHT), the two-dimensional (2D) logistic map, the double random phase encoding (DRPE) in gyrator transform (GT) domain and the three-step phase-shifting interferometry (PSI) is presented. First, we propose a new color image processing tool termed as the quaternion Hartley transform, and we develop an efficient method to calculate the QHT of a quaternion matrix. In the presented encryption scheme, the original color and grayscale images are represented by quaternion algebra and processed holistically in a vector manner using QHT. To enhance the security level, a 2D logistic map-based scrambling technique is designed to permute the complex amplitude, which is formed by the components of the QHT-transformed original images. Subsequently, the scrambled data is encoded by the GT-based DRPE system. For the convenience of storage and transmission, the resulting encrypted signal is recorded as the real-valued interferograms using three-step PSI. The parameters of the scrambling method, the GT orders and the two random phase masks form the keys for decryption of the secret images. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme has high security level and certain robustness against data loss, noise disturbance and some attacks such as chosen plaintext attack.

In this paper, we propose an algorithms for the mounted PCB classification system using wavelet transform and ART2 neural network. The feature informations of a mounted PCB can be extracted from the coefficient matrix of wavelet transform adapted subband concept. As the preprocessing process, only the PCB area in the input image is extracted by histogram method and the feature vectors are composed of using wavelet transform method. These feature vectors are used as the input vector of ART2 neural network. In the experiment using 55 mounted PCB images, the proposed algorithm shows 100% classification rate at the vigilance parameter $\rho$=0.99. The proposed algorithm has some advantages of the feature extraction in the compressed domain and the simplification of processing steps.
