The work presented here is centered around a speech production model called Chained Dynamical System Model (CDSM) which is motivated by the fundamental limitations of the mainstream ASR approaches, The CDSM is essentially a smoothly time varying continuous state nonlinear dynamical system, consisting of two sub dynamical systems coupled as a chain so that one system controls the parameters of the next system. The speech recognition problem is posed as inverting the CDSM, for which we propose a solution based on the theory of Embedding. The resulting architecture, which we call Inverted CDSM (ICDSM) is evaluated in a set of experiments involving a speaker independent, continuous speech recognition task on the TIMIT database. Results of these experiments which can be compared with the corresponding results in the literature, confirm the feasibility and advantages of the approach.

In this paper, two basic approaches for implementing the 9/7 Filtering Unit, used in the Discrete Wavelet Transform, are addressed. The first is the lifting scheme approach and the second is the conventional, convolutional filter approach. Two architectures are examined for each approach, a simple - straightforward one and an optimized one, substituting the multipliers used for scaling with shift add operations. The quantization of the constants used in the calculations is thoroughly explored and the selection of the data-path bit-width is addressed. Experimental results based on hardware implementation, for several quantizations and for the different hardware architectures of the 9/7 filtering units are given.

A novel GPR system for stand off landmine detection is discussed. This is a bistatic GPR system, which use a TEM horn antenna for a transmitter and a passive optical electric field sensor as a receiver. A small size passive optical sensor scans on the ground surface and the acquired signal is used for synthetic aperture processing. Since the receiver is very small, it is suitable for scanning near the ground surfece, where landmines can be buried. Fundamental laboratory test shows its capability of imaging of buried objects.
The problem of bandwidth efficient data transmission in multi-sensor OFDM systems is considered. Contrary to the mono-sensor systems, the effects of frequency selective fading may be alleviated in the multi-sensor sys...

Through the wall surveillance is a difficult but important problem for both law enforcement and military personnel. Getting information on both the internal features of a structure and the location of people inside improves the operational effectiveness in search and rescue, hostage, and barricade situations. However, the electromagnetic properties of walls constrain the choices available as sensor candidates. We have demonstrated that a high range resolution radar operating between 450 MHz and 2 GHz can be used with a fixed linear array of antennas to produce images and detect motion through both interior and exterior walls. While the experimental results are good. it has been shown that the linear array causes signalprocessing artifacts that appear as ghosts in the resultant images. By moving toward a sensor concept where the antennas in the array are randomly spaced, the effect of ghost images can be reduced and operational and performance benefits Rained.
