In this paper we define a new bi-adaptive mesh denoising algorithm for efficient features preserving restoration of noisy models acquired from 3D scanners. The new filter is based on two recently introduced adaptive algorithms for triangle mesh denoising which show good results over previous methods. We adapt the MMSE filter noise threshold adaptive equation to compute new triangles normal vect...

In this paper, we present a parallel algorithm for edge detection based on Infinite Impulse Response filter (IIR filter). In particular, the Infinite size Symmetric Exponential Filter (ISEF) that is an optimal IIR filter and computationally efficient smoothing filter is studied. The proposed algorithm exploits efficiently all aspects of potential parallelism (spatial parallelism, temporal paral...

Attitude determination, along with attitude control, is critical to functioning of every space mission. In this paper, we investigate and compare, through simulation, the application of two autonomous sequential attitude estimation algorithms, adopted from the literature, for attitude determination using attitude sensors (sun sensor and horizon sensors) and rate-integrating gyros. The two algor...

In this paper, the algorithms for adaptive rejection of a radar clutter are synthesized for the case of a priori unknown spectral-correlation characteristics at wobbulation of a repetition period of the radar signal. The synthesis of algorithms for the non-recursive adaptive rejection filter (ARF) of a given order is reduced to determination of the vector of weighting coefficients, which realiz...

The growing demands for delivering multimedia services over Internet and wireless networks call for high-performance and low-complexity data compression and transmission algorithms. Various such algorithms are developed in this dissertation using the filter bank theory. We first present a systematic design of multiplierless approximation of the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). Our method simpli...

Over the past decades a number of new adaptive filter algorithms have been elaborated and applied to meet demands for faster convergence and better tracking properties than earlier techniques could offer. The Filtered LMS algorithm is currently the most popular method for adapting a filter, due to its simplicity and robustness, which have made it widely adopted in many applications. Application...

This paper presents reduced-rank linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV) beamforming algorithms based on joint iterative optimization of filters. The proposed reduced-rank scheme is based on a constrained joint iterative optimization of filters according to the minimum variance criterion. The proposed optimization procedure adjusts the parameters of a projection matrix and an adaptive redu...

It is universally accepted that Median filter is the best filter known so far. Based on this fact many variants of median filter were developed to improve the performance of the standard median filter. In this paper a new approach for the restoration of gray scale and color images that are highly corrupted by impulse noise is proposed. The algorithm works on low density noise also. The algorith...
