The meaningful speech sound block classification provides very important information in the speech recognition. The following technique of the classification is based on the DWT (discrete wavelet transform), which will provide a more fast algorithm and a useful, compact solution for the pre-processing of speech recognition. The algorithm is implemented to the unvoiced/voiced classification and the denoising.

For effective mobility control of unmanned ground vehicles in outdoor off-road environments, terrain cover classification technology using passive sensors is vital. This paper presents a novel method far terrain classification based on color and texture information of off-road images. It uses a neural network classifier and wavelet features. We exploit the wavelet mean and energy features extracted from multi-channel wavelet transformed images and also utilize the terrain class spatial coordinates of images to include additional features. By comparing the classification performance according to applied features, the experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a promising result and potential possibilities for autonomous navigation.

Many practical time series, including pressure signals measured on roof-corners of low-rise buildings in quartering winds, consist of relatively quiescent periods interrupted by intermittent transients. The dyadic wavelet transform is used to detect these transients in pressure time series and a relatively simple pattern classification scheme is used to detect underlying structure in these transients. Statistical analysis of the resulting pattern classes yields a library of signal "building blocks", which are useful for detailed characterization of transients inherent to the signals being analyzed.

A novel method for recognition, characterization, and quantification of deterioration in bridge components and laboratory concrete samples is presented in this paper. The proposed scheme is based on grey level co-occurrence matrix texture analysis using Haar's discrete wavelet transform on concrete imagery. Each image is described by a subset of band-filtered images containing wavelet coefficients, and then reconstructed images are employed in characterizing the texture, using grey level co-occurrence matrices, of the different types and degrees of damage: map-cracking, spalling and steel corrosion. A comparative study was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of the supervised maximum likelihood and unsupervised K-means classification techniques, in order to classify and quantify the deterioration and its extent. Experimental results show both methods are relatively effective in characterizing and quantifying damage; however, the supervised technique produced more accurate results, with overall classification accuracies ranging from 76.8% to 79.1%.

Signal complexity is one point of view to analyze the biological signal. It arises as a result of the physiological signal produced by biological systems. Signal complexity can be used as a method in extracting the feature for a biological signal to differentiate a pathological signal from a normal signal. In this research, Hjorth descriptors, one of the signal complexity measurement techniques, were measured on signal sub-band as the features for lung sounds classification. Lung sound signal was decomposed using two wavelet analyses: discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and wavelet packet decomposition (WPD). Meanwhile, multi-layer perceptron and N-fold cross-validation were used in the classification stage. Using DWT, the highest accuracy was obtained at 97.98%, while using WPD, the highest one was found at 98.99%. This result was found better than the multi-scale Hjorth descriptor as in previous studies.

This paper presents the approach involving fault detection and diagnosis of gears using pattern recognition and Wavelet transform. It describes result of the comparison between KDI (Kullback Discrimination Information) with the nearest neighbor classification rule as one of pattern recognition methods and Wavelet transform to know a way to detect and diagnosis of gear damages experimentally. To model the damages 1) Normal (no defect), 2) one tooth is worn out, 3) All teeth faces are worn out 4) One tooth is broken. The vibration sensor was attached on the bearing housing. This produced the total time history data that is 20 pieces of each condition. We chose the standard data and measure distance between standard and tested data. In Wavelet transform analysis method, the time series data of magnitude in specified frequency (rotary and mesh frequency) were earned. As a result, the monitoring system using Wavelet transform method and KDI with nearest neighbor classification rule successfully detected and classified the damages from the experimental data.

We present a fingerprint identification algorithm using the wavelet transform and correlation. The wavelet transform is used because of its simple operation to extract fingerprint minutiaes features for fingerprint classification. We perform the rowwise 1-D wavelet transform for a $256\times256$ fingerprint image to get a $1\times256$ column vector using the Haar wavelet and repeat 1-D wavelet transform for a 1$\times$256 column vector to get a $1\times4$ feature vector. Using PNN(Probabilistic Neural Network), we select the possible candidates from the stored feature vectors for fingerprint images. For those candidates, we compute the correlation between the input binary image and the target binary image to find the most similar fingerprint image. The proposed algorithm may be the key to a low cost fingerprint identification system that can be operated on a small computer because it does not need a large memory size and much computation.

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.

The monitoring and diagnostics of the rotating machinery have been received considerable attention for many years. The objectives are to classify the machinery condition and to find out the cause of abnormal condition. This paper describes a classification method of diagnosing the small reciprocating compressor for refrigerators using the artificial neural network and the wavelet transform. In order to extract salient features, the wavelet transform are used from primary noise signals. Since the wavelet transform decomposes raw time-waveform signals into two respective parts in the time space and frequency domain, more and better features can be obtained easier than time-waveform analysis. In the training phase for classification, self-organizing feature map(SOFM) and learning vector quantization(LVQ) are applied, and the accuracies of them ate compared with each other. This paper is focused on the development of an advanced signal classifier to automatize the vibration signal pattern recognition. This method is verified by small reciprocating compressors, for refrigerator and normal and abnormal conditions are classified with high flexibility and reliability.

본 논문에서는 가보 웨이블릿(Gabor Wavelet)을 이용한 회전 변화에 무관한 질감 분류 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 방법들은 대용량 질감 데이터베이스에서 낮은 정정분류비(Correct Classification Rate)를 나타내었다. 제안한 방법은 가보 웨이블릿 필터링 된 영상에서 전역 특징 벡터(Global Feature Vector)와 지역 특징행렬(Local Feature Matrix)을 정의하였다. 회전 변화에 무관한 두 가지 특징 그룹을 이용하여 개선된 유사도 측정 판별식(Discriminant)을 정의하였으며, 실험을 통하여 대용량 질감 데이터베이스에 적용한 결과 향상된 정정분류비를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 질감 영상 스펙트럼의 대칭성을 이용하여 기존의 방법보다 실험회수를 50% 가까이 감소시켰다 결론적으로 112개의 브로다츠(Brodatz) 질감 클래스에서 비교 방법에 따라 차이는 있으나 $2.3%{\sim}15.6%$의 향상된 정정분류비를 얻었다.
