Fish Classification Algorithm using Single Value Decomposition
Automatic fish classification system plays a very useful role in the process of separating fishes into
species for human consumption,ornamentation and other usages. Manual classificationof fishes into different types is
difficult and boring. This work proposes a fast and accurate system capable of classifying fish images into distinct
classes based on their physical form. The system comprises image-processing, feature extraction and classification
method. Fishfeature vector is obtained from Single Value Decomposition (SVD) product extracted from fish block
images. Training and testing of the proposed fish classification system are done using Artificial Neural Network
(ANN). Experimental test was carried out to determine the species of query fish images. Thirty-six fish images were
tested, 94% correct classification result is recorded
Compressive Imaging Using RIP-Compliant CMOS Imager Architecture and Landweber Reconstruction
In this paper, we present a new image sensor architecture for fast and accurate compressive sensing (CS) of natural images. Measurement matrices usually employed in CS CMOS image sensors are recursive pseudo-random binary matrices. We have proved that the restricted isometry property of these matrices is limited by a low sparsity constant. The quality of these matrices is also affected by the non-idealities of pseudo-random number generators (PRNG). To overcome these limitations, we propose a hardware-friendly pseudo-random ternary measurement matrix generated on-chip by means of class III elementary cellular automata (ECA). These ECA present a chaotic behavior that emulates random CS measurement matrices better than other PRNG. We have combined this new architecture with a block-based CS smoothed-projected Landweber reconstruction algorithm. By means of single value decomposition, we have adapted this algorithm to perform fast and precise reconstruction while operating with binary and ternary matrices. Simulations are provided to qualify the approach.Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad TEC2015-66878-C3-1-RJunta de Andalucía TIC 2338-2013Office of Naval Research (USA) N000141410355European Union H2020 76586

Aircraft turbulence and gust identification using simulated in-flight data
Gust and turbulence events are of primary importance for the analysis of flight incidents, for the design of gust load alleviation systems and for the calculation of loads in the airframe. Gust and turbulence events cannot be measured directly but they can be obtained through direct or optimisation-based methods. In the direct method the discretisation of the Fredholm Integral equation is associated with an ill conditioned matrix. In this work the effects of regularisation methods including Tikhonov regularisation, Truncated Single Value Decomposition (TSVD), Damped Single Value Decomposition (DSVD) and a recently proposed method using cubic B-spline functions are evaluated for aeroelastic gust identification using in flight measured data. The gust identification methods are tested in the detailed aeroelastic model of FFAST and an equivalent low-fidelity aeroelastic model developed by the authors. In addition, the accuracy required in the model for a reliable identification is discussed. Finally, the identification method based on B-spline functions is tested by simultaneously using both low-fidelity and FFAST aeroelastic models so that the response from the FFAST model is used as measurement data and the equivalent low-fidelity model is used in the identification process
THE IMAGE STENOGRAPHY USING SINGLE VALUE DECOMPOSITION AND ZIG ZAG MAP
Hiding the secret message in to cover image is an important role in digital media. The paper presents the image stenography using svd (single value decomposition) and zig zag map. This technique embed secret message either left or right or combinationations singular vector using key which is generated by zig zag map and apply various noise attacks. The proposed method mainly used in protects the electronic products copyrights. The main objective of proposed method is to hiding secret message in to cover image and then transmit it. The experimental results that the proposed prposedy method provide high level of imperceptibility, robustness, high peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and mean square error (MSE) with embedding strength against many existing methods
Comparing surface-soil moisture from the SMOS mission and the ORCHIDEE land-surface model over the Iberian Peninsula
The aim of this study is to compare the surface soil moisture (SSM) retrieved from ESA's Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity mission (SMOS) with the output of the ORCHIDEE (ORganising Carbon and Hydrology In Dynamic EcosystEm) land surface model forced with two distinct atmospheric data sets for the period 2010 to 2012. The comparison methodology is first established over the REMEDHUS (Red de Estaciones de MEDición de la Humedad def Suelo) soil moisture measurement network, a 30 by 40. km catchment located in the central part of the Duero basin, then extended to the whole Iberian Peninsula (IP). The temporal correlation between the in-situ, remotely sensed and modelled SSM are satisfactory (r. >. 0.8). The correlation between remotely sensed and modelled SSM also holds when computed over the IP. Still, by using spectral analysis techniques, important disagreements in the effective inertia of the corresponding moisture reservoir are found. This is reflected in the spatial correlation over the IP between SMOS and ORCHIDEE SSM estimates, which is poor (¿. ~. 0.3). A single value decomposition (SVD) analysis of rainfall and SSM shows that the co-varying patterns of these variables are in reasonable agreement between both products. Moreover the first three SVD soil moisture patterns explain over 80% of the SSM variance simulated by the model while the explained fraction is only 52% of the remotely sensed values. These results suggest that the rainfall-driven soil moisture variability may not account for the poor spatial correlation between SMOS and ORCHIDEE products.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
MINING MULTI-GRANULAR MULTIVARIATE MEDICAL MEASUREMENTS
This thesis is motivated by the need to predict the mortality of patients in the Intensive Care Unit. The heart of this problem revolves around being able to accurately classify multivariate, multi-granular time series patient data. The approach ultimately taken in this thesis involves using Z-Score normalization to make variables comparable, Single Value Decomposition to reduce the number of features, and a Support Vector Machine to classify patient tuples. This approach proves to outperform other classification models such as k-Nearest Neighbor and demonstrates that SVM is a viable model for this project. The hope is that going forward other work can build off of this research and one day make an impact in the medical community
Discrimination of buried objects using time-frequency analysis and waveform norms
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) are widely used to probe the sub-surface. Recently, various time-frequency analyses has been proposed to discriminate buried land mines from other clutter objects and thus reduce GPR false alarm rates. This paper examines the possibility for discrimination and assesses it experimentally. The approach uses the Choi-Williams time-frequency transform to analyse ultra-wideband signal returns from a range of shallow buried objects. Single Value Decomposition is performed on isolated object time-frequency signatures. The signatures are evaluated using a set of waveform norms that discriminate in time, frequency and energy content. The results indicate that this approach could improve land mine detection rates and reduce false alarms
Significance of solutions of the inverse Biot-Savart problem in thick superconductors
The evaluation of current distributions in thick superconductors from field
profiles near the sample surface is investigated theoretically. A simple model
of a cylindrical sample, in which only circular currents are flowing, reduces
the inversion to a linear least squares problem, which is analyzed by singular
value decomposition. Without additional assumptions about the current
distribution (e.g. constant current over the sample thickness), the condition
of the problem is very bad, leading to unrealistic results. However, any
additional assumption strongly influences the solution and thus renders the
solutions again questionable. These difficulties are unfortunately inherent to
the inverse Biot-Savart problem in thick superconductors and cannot be avoided
by any models or algorithms
