The objective of this L-0 approach is to improve the performance of the more general two-dimensional (2-0) approach. This differs considerably from previous L-0 approaches, he objectives of which have typically been to approximate a more general 2-0 approach for computational reasons and not to improve its performance. The main advan- tage of this new 1-0 approach is its capability to preserve edges in the image while removing noise in all regions of the image, including the edge regions. To illustrate this point, the approach is applied to existing 2-0 image restoration algorithms. Exper- Lmental results with images degraded by additive white noise at various SNRs (signal-to- noise ratios) are oprsented. Further examples illustrate the application of -0 rstor- ation techniques based on this approach to images degraded by blurring and additive white noise and images degraded by multiplicative noise.

ABSTRACr A one-dimensional (1-D) approach to the problem of adaptive image res- toration is presented. In this approach, we use a cascade of four 1-D adaptive filters oriented in the four major correlation directions of the image, with each filter treating the image as a 1-D signal. The objective of this 1-D approach is to improve the performance of the more general two-dimensional (2-D) approach. This differs considerably from previous 1-D approaches, the objectives of which have typically been to approximate a more general 2-D approach for computa- tional reasons and not to improve its performance. The main advantage of this new 1-D approach is its capability to preserve' edges in the image while remov- ing noise in all regions of the image, including the edge regions. To illustrate this point, the approach is applied to existing 2-D image restoration algorithms. Experimental results with images degraded by additive white noise at various SNRs (signal to noise ratios) are presented. Further examples illustrate the application of 1-D restoration techniques based on this approach to images degraded by blurring and additive white noise and images degraded by multipli- cative noise. Another example shows its usefulness in the reduction of quanti- zation noise in pulse code modulation image coding. Thesis Supervisor: Professor Jae S.

Western Michigan University, 2016 Total harmonics distortion is one of the main problems in power systems due to its effects in generating undesirable issues in power quality. These effects include heating (in transformers, capacitors, motors, and generators), disoperation of electronic equipment, incorrect readings on meters, disoperation of protective relays, and communication interference. Besides these problems, harmonics affect the power quality in both transmission and distribution systems. Different techniques have been used to mitigate the effects of harmonics.

Every year, one in 125 infants is born with heart imperfection. To address these problems, early identification of cardiac anomalies and consistent monitoring of fetal heart can support Pediatric Cardiologist and Obstetrics to take necessary care on time to prescribe medicines and take precautionary measures during gestation period, delivery and/or after birth. Majority of cardiac abnormalities contain some symptoms in the cardiac electrical signal morphology. Electrocardiography gives more information in measuring cardiac signals compare to sonographic measurement. However, in non-invasive heartbeat recording by fetal Electrocardiogram (ECG) application Electrocardiography has its limitation due to low signal- noise ratio where impeding bio-signals are too stronger than fetal electrocardiogram signals. Various adaptive filtering and Artificial intelligence techniques are applied to solve this complex problem. The complex real world problems need a combination of knowledge, skills, and techniques from various sources as an intelligent system. That intelligent system should possess expertise of human, adjust itself to changing environment and learn to improve on its own.

  • Image Restoration with Two-Dimensional Adaptive Filter
    Image Denoising with Two-Dimensional Adaptive Filter Algorithms M. Shams Esfand Abadi* and S. Nikbakht* Abstract: Two-dimensional (2D) adaptive filtering is a technique that can be applied to many image and signal processing applications. This paper extends the one-dimensional adaptive filter algorithms to 2D structure and the novel 2D adaptive filters are established. Based on this extension, the 2D variable step-size normalized least mean squares (2D-VSS- NLMS), the 2D-VSS affine projection algorithms (2D-VSS-APA), the 2D set-membership NLMS (2D-SM-NLMS), the 2D-SM-APA, the 2D selective partial update NLMS (2D- SPU-NLMS), and the 2D-SPU-APA are presented. In 2D-VSS adaptive filters, the step- size changes during the adaptation which leads to improve the performance of the algorithms. In 2D-SM adaptive filter algorithms, the filter coefficients are not updated at each iteration. Therefore, the computational complexity is reduced. In 2D-SPU adaptive algorithms, the filter coefficients are partially updated which reduce the computational complexity. We demonstrate the good performance of the proposed algorithms thorough several simulation results in 2D adaptive noise cancellation (2D-ANC) for image denoising. The results are compared with the classical 2D adaptive filters such as 2D-LMS, 2D-NLMS, and 2D-APA. Keywords: Two Dimensional, Adaptive Filter, Noise Cancellation, Selective Partial Update, Variable Step-Size, Set-Membership. 1 Introduction` one direction, was proposed in [7]. Also, the Adaptive filter algorithms have numerous applications development of a 2D adaptive filter using the block in electrical engineering [1], [2] and [3]. Two- diagonal LMS method was presented in [8].

  • Implementation of Adaptive Filtering Algorithms for Noise Cancellation
    FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Department of Electronics, Mathematics and Natural Sciences Implementation of adaptive filtering algorithms for noise cancellation Tanja Lampl 2020 Student thesis, Advanced level (Master degree), 15 HE Electronics Master Programme in Electronics/Automation (online) Supervisor: José Chilo (PhD) Examiner: Niclas Björsell (PhD) i Abstract This paper deals with the implementation and performance evaluation of adaptive filtering algorithms for noise cancellation without reference signal. Noise cancellation is a technique of estimating a desired signal from a noise- corrupted observation. If the signal and noise characteristics are unknown or change continuously over time, the need of adaptive filter arises. In contrast to the conventional digital filter design techniques, adaptive filters do not have constant filter parameters, they have the capability to continuously adjust their coefficients to their operating environment. To design an adaptive filter, that produces an optimum estimate of the desired signal from the noisy environment, different adaptive filtering algorithms are implemented and compared to each other. The Least Mean Square LMS, the Normalized Least Mean Square NLMS and the Recursive Least Square RLS algorithm are investigated. Three performance criteria are used in the study of these algorithms: the rate of convergence, the error performance and the signal-to- noise ratio SNR. The implementation results show that the adaptive noise cancellation application benefits more from

  • Analysis of Adaptive Filter Algorithms with an Application to Harmonic
    Analysis of Adaptive Filter Algorithms with an Application to Harmonic Noise Cancellation in Distribution Power Line Communications by Jin-Der Wang Center for Communications and Signal Processing Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering North Carolina State University August 1985 CCSP-TR-85/15 ABSTRACT WANG, JIN-DER. Analysis of Adaptive filter Algorithms with an Application to Harmonic Noise Cancellation in Distribution Power Line Communications. (Under the direction of Dr. Henry Joel Trussell.) Some well-known adaptive algorithms such as the least mean squares (LMS) and the recursive least squares (RLS) algorithms are reviewed, and the properties of some newly developed fast RLS algorithms such as the fast Kalman (FK), the fast a priori estimation sequential technique (FAEST), and the fast transversal filter (FTF) algorithms are investigated. These adaptive algorithms are applied to the problem of harmonic noise cancellation in distribution power line communica­ tions. The fast RLS algorithms were derived independently, from different approaches, and no connection had previously been made. They are rederived with a unified approach, and their mathematical equivalence is shown by examining certain algorithmic quantities and initial conditions. Based on this work, an improved rescue variable is then proposed which can detect the tendency of algo­ rithm divergence earlier than previously proposed rescue variables. Adaptive filters are applied to harmonic noise cancellation m distribution power line communications. It is shown that most filter taps can be constrained to zero to reduce computational complexity. The constrained LMS and RLS algo­ rithms are derived for a general constraint problem, and the constrained FK algorithm is derived for harmonic noise cancellation.
