In this study, a new long-duration holter electrocardiogram (ECG) major events detection-delineation algorithm is described which operates based on the false-alarm error bounded segmentation of a decision statistic with simple mathematical origin. To meet this end, first three-lead holter data is pre-processed by implementation of an appropriate bandpass finite-duration impulse response (FIR) f...

Star detection is an important part of the spacecraft attitude determination performed by star trackers. The current advanced algorithms can effectively extract points in complex backgrounds. However, there are still two problems: first, parameters algorithm not adaptive, which limits its reliability and robustness; second, high performance low computational time usually cannot be achieved simu...

the record of human brain neural activities, namely electroencephalogram (eeg), is generally known as a non-stationary and nonlinear signal. in many applications, it is useful to divide the eegs into segments within which the signals can be considered stationary. combination of empirical mode decomposition (emd) and hilbert transform, called hilbert-huang transform (hht), is a new and powerful ...

this paper concentrates on a new procedure which experimentally recognises gears and bearings faults of a typical gearbox system using a least square support vector machine (lssvm). two wavelet selection criteria maximum energy to shannon entropy ratio and maximum relative wavelet energy are used and compared to select an appropriate wavelet for feature extraction. the fault diagnosis method co...

Motivated by the concept of partial words, we introduce an analogous concept of partial permutations. A partial permutation of length n with k holes is a sequence of symbols π = π1π2 · · ·πn in which each of the symbols from the set {1, 2, . . . , n− k} appears exactly once, while the remaining k symbols of π are “holes”. We introduce pattern-avoidance in partial permutations and prove that mos...

This paper presents a novel remote sensing image fusion algorithm, which implements panchromatic sharpening of multispectral data through application of the principal component analysis (PCA) transform and the dual-tree compactly supported shearlet transform (DT CSST). Shearlet transforms provide near optimal representation of the anisotropic features of an image. The compactly supported shearl...

This paper proposes a new fusion method for multiespectral (MULTI) and panchromatic (PAN) images that uses a highly anisotropic and redundant representation of images. This methodology join the simplicity of the Wavelet transform, calculated using the à trous algorithm, with the benefits of multidirectional transforms like Contourlet Transform. That has permitted an adequate extraction of infor...

Ecosystems provide a wide variety of useful resources that enhance human welfare, but these resources are declining due to climate change and anthropogenic pressure. In this work, three vulnerable ecosystems, including shrublands, coastal areas with dunes systems and areas of shallow water, are studied. As far as these resources' reduction is concerned, remote sensing and image processing techn...

This paper presents a new multi-sensor data fusion method based on the combination of wavelet transform (WT) and extended Kalman filter (EKF). Input data are first filtered by a wavelet transform via Daubechies wavelet “db4” functions and the filtered data are then fused based on variance weights in terms of minimum mean square error. The fused data are finally treated by extended Kalman filter...
