Fast and robust detection of a known pattern in an image
International audienceMany image processing applications require to detect a known pattern buried under noise. While maximum correlation can be implemented efficiently using fast Fourier transforms, detection criteria that are robust to the presence of outliers are typically slower by several orders of magnitude. We derive the general expression of a robust detection criterion based on the theory of locally optimal detectors. The expression of the criterion is attractive because it offers a fast implementation based on correlations. Application of this criterion to Cauchy likelihood gives good detection performance in the presence of outliers, as shown in our numerical experiments. Special attention is given to proper normalization of the criterion in order to account for truncation at the image borders and noise with a non-stationary dispersion
D11.2 Consolidated results on the performance limits of wireless communications
Deliverable D11.2 del projecte europeu NEWCOM#The report presents the Intermediate Results of N# JRAs on Performance Limits of Wireless Communications and highlights the fundamental issues that have been investigated by the WP1.1. The report illustrates the Joint Research Activities (JRAs) already identified during the first year of the project which are currently ongoing. For each activity there is a description, an illustration of the adherence and relevance with the identified fundamental open issues, a short presentation of the preliminary results, and a roadmap for the joint research work in the next year. Appendices for each JRA give technical details on the scientific activity in each JRA.Peer ReviewedPreprin
