A method for lossless image compression using wavelet lifting transform with automatic adjustment of wavelet filter coefficients for better compression is presented. The proposal is based on pattern recognition by 1-NN classifier. Using the pattern recognition, the lifting filter coefficients are optimized globally for each image. The proposed technique was aplied to test images and the compres...

In this paper, we consider large-scale linear discrete ill-posed problems where the right-hand side contains noise. Regularization techniques such as Tikhonov regularization are needed to control the effect of the noise on the solution. In many applications such as in image restoration the coefficient matrix is given as a Kronecker product of two matrices and then Tikhonov regularization proble...

Linear prediction (LP) provides a robust, reliable and accurate method for estimating the parameters that characterize the linear time-varying system. It has become the predominant technique for estimating the basic speech parameters such as formants. Linear prediction exploits the redundancies of a speech signal by modelling the speech signal as an all-pole filter. The filter coefficients are ...

Usually when determining parameters with an inverse method, it is assumed that parameters or properties, other than those being sought, are known exactly. When such known parameters are uncertain, the inverse solution can be very sensitive to the degree of uncertainty. The stochastic regularization method can be modi ed to reduce this sensitivity. This paper presents such a modi cation. In addi...

one of the challenging issues in managing the existing large digital image libraries and databases is content based image retrieval (cbir). the accuracy of image retrieval methods in cbir is subject to effective extraction of image features such as color, texture, and shape. in this paper, we propose a new image retrieval method using contourlet transform coefficients to index texture of the im...

Digital sync signal processing for asynchronously digitized video signals is presented. A simplified matched filter for sync extraction and a linear prediction method for sync pulse filtering improves image stability significantly in comparison with a conventional phase-locked-loop (PLL) approach. Due to the linear prediction method, additional adaption to phase skips in the input signal (non-s...
