Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeech Enhancement Algorithm Using Sub band Two Step Decision Directed Approach with Adaptive Weighting factor and Noise Masking ThresholdDeepa Dhanaskodi, Shanmugam ArumugamProblem statement: Speech Enhancement plays an important role in any of the speech processing systems like speech recognition, mobile communication, hearing aid. Approach: In this work, human perceptual auditory masking effect is incorporated into the single channel speech enhancement algorithm. The algorithm is based on a criterion by which the audible noise may be masked rather than being attenuated and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,130 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Decision Trees in Context Clustering of Hidden Markov Model Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In Thai speech synthesis using Hidden Markov model (HMM) based synthesis system, the tonal speech quality is degraded due to tone distortion. This major problem must be treated appropriately to preserve the tone characteristics of each syllable unit. Since tone brings about the intelligibility of the synthesized speech. It is needed to establish the tone questions and other … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2011 · 6,847 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractColored Image Compression Using Gradient Adjustment Prediction Based WaveletMuna Faik Hanoon Al-SammraieProblem statement: Uncompressed graphics, audio and video data require considerable storage capacity and transmission bandwidth. Despite rapid progress in mass-storage density, processor speeds and digital communication system performance, demand for data storage capacity and data transmission bandwidth continues to outstrip the capabilities of available technologies. The recent growth of data intensive digital audio, image and video (multimedia) based web applications, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 7,312 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFish Classification Based on Robust Features Extraction From Color Signature Using Back-Propagation ClassifierMutasem Khalil Alsmadi, Khairuddin Bin Omar, Shahrul Azman Mohd NoahProblem statement: Image recognition was a challenging problem researchers had been research into this area for so long especially in the recent years, due to distortion, noise, segmentation errors, overlap and occlusion of objects in digital images. In our study, there are many fields concern with pattern recognition, for example, fingerprint verification, face recognition, iris discrimination, chromosome shape discrimination, optical … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2010 · 8,641 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFish Recognition Based on Robust Features Extraction from Size and Shape Measurements Using Neural NetworkMutasem Khalil Alsmadi, Khairuddin Bin Omar, Shahrul Azman Noah, Ibrahim AlmarashdehProblem statement: Image recognition is a challenging problem researchers had been research into this area for so long especially in the recent years, due to distortion, noise, segmentation errors, overlap and occlusion of objects in digital images. In our study, there are many fields concern with pattern recognition, for example, fingerprint verification, face recognition, iris discrimination, chromosome shape discrimination, optical … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 5 Aug 2010 · 9,308 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeech Enhancement Using Minimum Mean-Square Error Amplitude Estimators Under Normal and Generalized Gamma DistributionChabane Boubakir, Daoud BerkaniProblem statement: In this study, DFT-based speech enhancement via Minimum Mean-Square Error (MMSE) amplitude estimators was considered. Approach: Several variants of the basic approach (MMSE-STSA) have been proposed over the years to address certain shortcomings, chiefly the quality of the remnant noise and its trade-off with speech distortion. In this study, we presented a comparative study between the MMLSA and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,112 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClinical Assessment of Watermarked Medical ImagesJasni Mohamad Zain, Abdul Rani M. Fauzi, Azian A. AzizProblem statement: Digital watermarking provides security to medical images. Watermarking in Region Of Interest (ROI) however distorts medical images but it is known that the resulting loss of fidelity is visually imperceptible. Approach: Clinical assessment will objectively evaluate the distortion on medical images to see whether or not medical diagnosis is altered. We used 75 medical images consisting of x-rays, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 8,130 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWavelet-Based Geometry Coding for Three Dimensional Mesh Using Space Frequency QuantizationShymaa T. El-Leithy, Walaa M. ShetaProblem statement: Recently, 3D objects have been used in several applications like internet games, virtual reality and scientific visualization. These applications require real time rendering and fast transmission of large objects through internet. However, due to limitation of bandwidth, the compression and streaming of 3D object is still an open research problem. Approach: Novel procedure for compression and coding of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,605 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicroelectrical Mechanical Systems Switch for Designing Multi-Band AntennaA.H.M. Zahirul Alam, Md. Rafiqul Islam, Sheroz Khan, Muhammad Mahbubur RashidProblem statement: In this study Microelectrical Mechanical System (MEMS) switches were proposed to design a reconfigurable/multi-band antenna to replaced PIN diode switches or semiconductor switches due to lower insertion losses, good isolation, much lower intermodulation distortion, and lower power consumption. The antenna is able to operate at very high frequencies. Approach: A reconfigurable antenna that is capable to operate at … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Statistical Speech Segmentation Using Connectionist ApproachM. S. Salam, Dzulkifli Mohamad, S. H. SallehProblem statement: Speech segmentation is an important part for speech recognition, synthesizing and coding. Statistical based approach detects segmentation points via computing spectral distortion of the signal without prior knowledge of the acoustic information proved to be able to give good match, less omission but lot of insertion. These insertion points dropped segmentation accuracy. Approach: This study proposed a fusion … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,687 accessesView PDFCite
