In this paper, we consider the use of a seismic sensor array for the localization and tracking of a wideband moving source. The proposed solution consists of two steps: source Direction-Of-Arrival (DOA) estimation and localization via DOA estimates. Three DOA estimation methods are considered. The Covariance Matrix Analysis and the Surface Wave Analysis are previously published DOA estimation algorithms shown to be effective in the localization of a stationary wideband source. This paper investigates their performance on moving wideband sources. A novel DOA estimation algorithm, the Modified Kirlin's Method was also developed for the localization of a moving Source. The DOAs estimated by these algorithms are combined rising a least-squares optimization for source localization. The application of these algorithms to real-life data show the effectiveness of both the Surface Wave Analysis and the Modified Kirlin's Method in locating and tracking a wideband moving source.

In time-frequency analysis, we extend functions of one variable to functions of two variables. The functions of two variables provide information about the signal that is not easily discernible from the functions of one variable. In this paper, we investigate a method for creating quartic functions of three variables and also a quartic function of all four variables. These quartic functions provide a meaningful representation of the signal that goes beyond the well known quadratic functions. The quartic functions are applied to the design of signal-adaptive kernels for Cohen's class and shown to provide improvements over previous methods.

Previously published results demonstrated that a sequential combination of adaptive linear prediction configuration (LPC), adaptive noise cancellation (ANC), and adaptive comb filtering (CF) can effectively remove maternal interference from noninvasive fetal ECGs. More recent research results have verified that the bio-inspired Lévy Flight Firefly Algorithm (LFFA) can be effectively applied to many different forms of linear and non-linear adaptive filter structures, including low sensitivity IIR adaptive structures that could not be used with steepest descent adaptive algorithms due to their adaptive multimodal characteristics. This paper presents results when using the LFFA algorithm in various stages of the FECG sequential combination processing.

In array processing applications, it is desirable to extract the sources that generate the observed signals. There are various source separation and component extraction algorithms in literature including principal component analysis (PCA) and independent component analysis (ICA). However, most of these methods are not designed to deal with time-varying signals and thus are formulated in the time domain. In this paper, we introduce a new time-frequency based decomposition method using an information measure as the decomposition criteria. It is shown that under the assumption of disjoint source signals on the time-frequency plane, this method can extract the sources up to a scalar factor. Based on the QR decomposition of the mixing matrix, the source extraction algorithm is reduced to finding the optimal N-dimensional rotation of the observed time-frequency distributions. The proposed algorithm is implemented using the steepest descent approach to find the optimal rotation angle. The performance of the method is illustrated for example signals and compared to some well-known decomposition techniques.

We present a general procedure for obtaining equations of motion for the Wigner distribution of functions that are governed by ordinary and partial differential equations. For the case of fields we show that in general one must consider Wigner distributions of the four variables, position, momentum, time and frequency. We also show that in general one cannot write an equation of motion for position and momentum however it can be done in some cases, the Schrodinger equation being one such case. Our method leads to an equation of motion for the Schrodinger equation with time dependent potentials in contrast to the result obtained by Wigner and Moyal which was for time independent potentials.

We present a solution to a complex multi-tone transient detection problem to illustrate the integrated use of symbolic and numeric processing techniques which are supported by well-established underlying models. Examples of such models include synchronous dataflow for numeric processing and the blackboard paradigm for symbolic heuristic search. Our transient detection solution serves to emphasize the importance of developing system design methods and tools which can support the integrated use of well- established symbolic and numerical models of computation. Recently, we incorporated a blackboard-based model of computation underlying the Integrated processing and Understanding of signals (IPUS) paradigm into a system-level design environment for numeric processing called Ptolemy. Using the IPUS/Ptolemy environment, we are implementing our solution to the multi-tone transient detection problem.

The massive processing volume of multichannel space time adaptive signalprocessing (STAP) is a great challenge to implement. The difficulties lie on intensive computation, high data communication bandwidth and complexity of processing method. Now with advanced parallel DSP modules, based on the parallel processing technique and fast algorithms, the STAP processor can be realized. The overall hardware equipment was greatly reduced to be affordable. A compact processor with better performance to cost ratio can be implemented.

A popular modality of biometrics, facial recognition is effective when used in controlled environments as in those situations where factors such as camera position, facial expression, and illumination effects are either completely or partially controlled in a beneficial way. Regulation of such factors has an immediate effect on the performance of facial recognition algorithms, in particular illumination effects which can not be controlled by even the most cooperative of users. In this paper we describe a method to address illumination effects in the biometric modality of face recognition using the signalprocessing analysis tool of Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) to decompose images into their intrinsic mode function that correspond to the dominant illumination factors. Using these illumination modes we reconstruct the facial image without these illumination distortion components to synthesize a more illumination neutral facial image. We then perform verification experiments using algorithms such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Fisher Linear Discriminant Analysis (FLDA), and advanced Correlation Filters (ACF's) to demonstrate the fundamental effectiveness of EMD as an illumination compensation method. Results are reported on the Carnegie Mellon University Pose-Illumination-Expression (CMU PIE) database.

This paper describes an scheme for automatic forest surveillance. A complete system for forest fire detection is firstly presented although we focus on infrared image processing. The proposed scheme based on infrared image processing performs early detection of any fire threat. With the aim of determining the presence or absence of fire, the proposed algorithms performs the fusion of different detectors which exploit different expected characteristics of a real fire, like persistence and increase. Theoretical results and practical simulations are presented to corroborate the control of the system related with probability of false alarm (PFA). Probability of detection (PD) dependence on signal to noise ration (SNR) is also evaluated.
