Change detection between two images is challenging and needed in a wide variety of imaging applications. Several approaches have been yet developed, especially methods based on difference image. In this paper, we propose an original patch-based Markov modeling framework to detect spatial irregularities in the difference image with low false alarm rates. Experimental results show that the propos...

Abstract The signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) for quasi-circular binary black hole inspirals computed from restricted post-Newtonian waveforms are compared with those attained by more complete postNewtonian signals, which are superpositions of amplitude-corrected harmonics of the orbital phase. It is shown that if one were to use the best available amplitude-corrected waveforms for detection templ...

In this paper, Gaussian two-way channel with uniform output quantization is studied. For Gaussian inputs, the optimum uniform finite-level quantizer is determined numerically for different values of Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). The two-way channel with constellation-based transmitters is then investigated. A formulation for the so-called Shannon achievable region of this channel is developed an...

Time-frequency analysis in waveform engineering can be applied to many detection and imaging systems, such as radar, sonar, ultrasound improve their Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). Recently, photoacoustic systems have attracted researchers’ attention. However, the SNR optimization problem for has not been fully addressed. In this paper, one-dimensional of response an input with finite duration ene...
