In a previous paper [Bag and Hu, Phys. Rev. E 73, 061107 (2006)], we studied the mean lifetime (MLT) for the escape of a Brownian particle through an unstable limit cycle driven by multiplicative colored Gaussian and additive Gaussian white noises and found resonant activation (RA) behavior. In the present paper we switch from Gaussian to non-Gaussian multiplicative colored noise. We find that ...

Communication in the presence of a priori known interference at the encoder has gained great interest because of its many practical applications. In this paper, additive exponential noise channel with additive exponential interference (AENC-AEI) known non-causally at the transmitter is introduced as a new variant of such communication scenarios‎. First, it is shown that the additive Gaussian ch...

This paper presents Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) estimation of the spectral components of clean speech from the observed data noised by the additive background noise having Gaussian or non-Gaussian statistical distribution. In the proposed algorithm MAP estimator for the spectral components of clean signal is derived using Generalized Gaussian Distribution (GGD) function as a priori statistical m...

Probabilistic properties of Cox processes of relevance for statistical modeling and inference are studied. Particularly, we study the most important classes of Cox processes, including log Gaussian Cox processes, shot noise Cox processes, and permanent Cox processes. We consider moment properties and point process operations such as thinning, displacements, and superpositioning. We also discuss...

in this paper, an optimal algorithm is presented for de-noising of medical images. the presented algorithm is based on improved version of local pixels grouping and principal component analysis. in local pixels grouping algorithm, blocks matching based on l2 norm method is utilized, which leads to matching performance improvement. to evaluate the performance of our proposed algorithm, peak sign...

in this paper a new algorithm is presented for coherent radar detection of targets, when distribution of the interference (clutter and noise) is non-gaussian. the neyman-pearson criterion is used for optimal detection and several successive received samples from a radar range cell are used for detection in the same cell. on the basis of recent empirical evidences, the interference distribution ...

In this paper, we use the Gaussian particle filter introduced in a companion paper to build several types of Gaussian sum particle filters. These filters approximate the filtering and predictive distributions by weighted Gaussian mixtures and are basically banks of Gaussian particle filters. Then, we extend the use of Gaussian particle filters and Gaussian sum particle filters to dynamic state ...

In semiclassical theory, light is a classical electromagnetic wave and the fundamental source of photodetection noise is the shot effect arising from the discreteness of the electron charge. In quantum theory, light is a quantum-mechanical entity and the fundamental source of photodetection noise comes from measuring the photon-flux operator. The Glauber coherent states are Gaussian quantum sta...

Performance of the echo canceller can be conventionally measured by putting white Gaussian noise into the echo canceller system. However, white Gaussian noise is not adequate as the test signal, since the performance may depend on the characteristics of input test signal, and the characteristics of the white Gaussian noise differ from those of real spoken language. This paper describes characte...
