With the continuing growth of modern communications technology, demand for image transmission and storage is increasing rapidly. Advances in computer technology for mass storage and digital processing have paved the way for implementing advanced data compression techniques to improve the efficiency of transmission and storage of images. In this paper a large variety of algorithms for image data compression are considered. Starting with simple techniques of sampling and pulse code modulation (PCM), state of the art algorithms for two-dimensional data transmission are reviewed. Topics covered include differential PCM (DPCM) and predictive coding, transform coding, hybrid coding, interframe coding, adaptive techniques, and applications. Effects of channel errors and other miscellaneous related topics are also considered. While most of the examples and image models have been specialized for visual images, the techniques discussed here could be easily adapted more generally for multidimensional data compression. Our emphasis here is on fundamentals of the various techniques. A comprehensive bibliography with comments is included for a reader interested in further details of the theoretical and experimental results discussed here.

Upper and lower bounding first-order linear recursions for the mean-squared error realized with the LMS algorithm subjected to a sequence of independent nonstationary training vectors are derived. These bounds coincide to give the exact evolution of mean-squared error for the problem of identification of a nonrecursive time-varying system with white-noise excitation. This leads to an exact formula for time-averaged mean-squared error that is used to study optimization of the step-size parameter for minimum time-average misadjustment. New results on dependence of the minimal step size and the minimum misadjustment on the degree of nonstationarity are obtained.

Although the magnitude of the discrete Fourier transform of a maximal-length shift-register sequence is flat, except for its value at zero frequency, the higher resolution spectral content given by the Fourier-series transform is highly erratic. This little-known fact is described, and its ramifications on fast Fourier transforms of one-digit-extended pseudo noise and zero-padded pseudo noise are explained.

An algorithm is presented which can be used to compute a temporally adaptive, recursive solution to the problem of estimating the linear prediction parameters of speech. The method is theoretically equivalent to conventional adaptive sequential regression, but is slightly more efficient and computationally much more straightforward. Application to the problem of recognition of speech of the profoundly disabled is discussed.

Plasma immersion ion implantation (Pm) is a novel implantation technique for high-dose/high-current implants. Using the SPICE circuit simulator to model the PIII process, the sheath voltage and ion energy distribution are examined. Implanting into a dielectric substrate results in a significant voltage buildup in the wafer, reducing the effective implant energy. Increasing the pulse voltage raises the dose/pulse, but at the cost of an expanded implant energy spread. Increasing the plasma ion density also raises the dose/pulse, but at the cost of a wider implant energy spread and a lower coupling efficiency. Increasing the substrate thickness reduces both the coupling efficiency and dose/pulse while broadening the energy spread. The large voltage generated across the dielectric substrate decreases the charge neutralization time significantly, reducing the possibility of gate oxide damage.

We consider the planning problem for a mobile manipulator system that must perform a sequence of tasks defined by position, orientation, force, and moment vectors at the end-effector. Each task can be performed in multiple configurations due to the redundancy introduced by mobility. We formulate the planning problem as an optimization problem in which the decision variables for mobility (base position) are separated from the manipulator joint angles in the cost function. The resulting numerical problem is nonlinear with nonconvex, unconnected feasible regions in the decision space. Simulated annealing is proposed as a general solution method for obtaining near-optimal results. The problem formulation and numerical solution by simulated annealing are illustrated for a manipulator system with three degrees of freedom mounted on a base with two degrees of freedom. These results are compared with results obtained by conventional nonlinear programming techniques customized for the particular example system.

A common task in image analysis is that of measuring image properties within local windows. Often usefulness of these property estimates is determined by characteristics of the windows themselves. Critical factors include the window size and shape, and the contribution the window makes to the cost of computation, A highly efficient procedure for computing property estimates within Gaussian-like windows is described. Estimates are obtained within windows of many sizes simultaneously.
