Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractADDITIVE AND MULTIPLICATIVE NOISE REMOVAL BASED ON ADAPTIVE WAVELET TRANSFORMATION USING CYCLE SPINNINGAsem Khmag, Abd Rahman Ramli, Syed Abdul Rahman Al-Haddad, Shaiful Jahari Bin HashimThe need for image restoration is encountered in many practical applications. For instance, distortion due to Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) or in some cases the multiplicative (speckle) one can be caused by poor quality image acquisition. Wavelet denoising attempts to remove these types of noise present in the signal while preserving the signal characteristics, regardless of its frequency content. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Dec 2013 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntelligent Controller for Reduction of Total Harmonics in Single Phase InvertersSpencer Prathap Singh, Kesavan NairDue to the increased use of nonlinear loads, the problem of power harmonics becomes more and more complex. This work investigates the reduction of Harmonics in voltage controlled single phase full bridge inverter. The mapping state-space equations are generated by examining the single phase full bridge inverter. The PI and fuzzy logic controllers are used for the experimental simulation in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 18 Sep 2013 · 6,647 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Inference System Based Power Factor Correction of Three Phase Diode Rectifier Using Field Programable Gate ArraySundar Rajan Giri Thulasiraman, Christober Asir RajanThis study describes a novel method in improving the input current total harmonic distortion as well as power factor of a three-phase diode rectifier circuit. In this method, three bidirectional switches comprising MOSFET and four diodes are used across the three-phase supply and load. In a three-phase rectifier only two diodes conduct at any given time. As a result, the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 6,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVING INDEPENDENT COMPONENT ANALYSIS USING SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINES FOR MULTIMODAL IMAGE FUSIOND. Egfin Nirmala, A. Bibin Sam Paul, V. VaidehiThe objective of this study is to combine multiple images of a scene acquired by different sensors to create a new image with all important information from the input images. Recent studies show that bases trained using Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is effective in multisensor fusion and has improved performance over traditional wavelet approaches. In the ICA based fusion, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 7,272 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation Analysis on Proportional Integral and Derivative Control of Closed Loop DC Motor Drive with Bipolar Voltage SwitchingP. Karpagavalli, A. Ebenezer JeyakumarThis study presents the performance of a new four quadrant single phase DC drive closed loop system controlled by proportional integral and derivative controller with Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) full bridge DC-DC converter using bipolar voltage switching. The proposed method is found to be more efficient in improving the step response characteristics such as reducing the settling time, rise time, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 29 Jun 2013 · 6,908 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLAG SELECTION OF THE AUGMENTED KAPETANIOS-SHIN-SNELL NONLINEAR UNIT ROOT TESTJen-Je Su, Adrian Wai-Kong Cheung, Eduardo RocaWe provide simulation evidence that shed light on several size and power issues in relation to lag selection of the augmented (nonlinear) KSS test. Two lag selection approaches are considered-the Modified AIC (MAIC) approach and a sequential General to Specific (GS) testing approach Either one of these approaches can be used to select the optimal lag based on either the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 4 May 2013 · 7,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVideo Coding Technique Using 3D Dualtree Discrete Wavelet Transform with Multi Objective Particle Swarm Optimization ApproachesThamarai Muthusamy, Shanmugalakshmi RamachandranWavelet-based image compression with Wavelet transform based motion compensated video codec performs better compression to meet the rate and distortion constraints in video transmission with the available bandwidth than the block based techniques. However, it is well known that the 2D DWT does not represent directional features of images efficiently. Lots of efforts have been contributed to multiscale directional representation. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 20 Feb 2013 · 6,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptive Channel Equalization Using Multiplicative Neural Network for Rayleigh Faded ChannelP. Sivakumar, N. Chithra, S. N. Sivanandam, M. RajaramProblem statement: Digital transmission over band-limited communication channel largely suffers from ISIS and various noise sources. The presence of ISI and noise causes bit errors in the received signal. Equalization is necessary at the receiver to overcome these channel impairment to recover the original transmitted sequence. Traditionally equalization is considered as equivalent to inverse filtering and implemented using linear-perform under … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 18 Aug 2011 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
