Abstract:
A new generalized statistical signal processing framework is introduced
for optimal signal representation and compression. Previous work is
extended by considering the multiple signal case, where a desired signal
is observed only in the presence of other non-white signals. The solution
to this multi-signal representation problem yields a generalization
of the Karhunen-Loeve transform and generates a basis selection which
is optimal for multiple signals and colored-noise random processes
under the minimum mean-square error criterion. The important applications
for which this model is valid include detection, prediction, estimation,
compression, classification and recognition.

Abstract:
Symbolic signals are, in discrete-time, sequences of quantities that
do not assume numeric values. In the most general case, these quantities
have no mathematical structure other than that they are members of
some set, but they can have a sequential structure. We show that processing
such signals does not entail mapping them directly to the integers,
which would impose more structure---ordering and arithmetic---than
present in the data. We describe how linear estimation and prediction
can be performed on symbolic sequences. We show how spectrograms can
be computed from neural population responses and from DNA sequences.

Abstract:
We use a new uncertainty measure,Hp, that predicts the compactness
of digital signal representations to determine a good (non-orthogonal)
set of basis vectors. The measure uses the entropy of the signal and
its Fourier transform in a manner that is similar to the use of the
signal and its Fourier transform in the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
The measure explains why the level of discretization of continuous
basis signals can be very important to the compactness of representation.
Our use of the measure indicates that a mixture of (non-orthogonal)
sinusoidal and impulsive or 'blocky' basis functions may be best for
compactly representing signals.

Abstract:
We present an algorithm for the detection of extra-solar planets by
occultation on the satellite COROT. Under high flux assumption, the
signal is modeled as an autoregressive process having equal mean and
variance. A transit of a planet in front of a star will produce an
abrupt jump in the mean/variance of the process. The Neyman-Pearson
detector is derived when the abrupt change parameters are known. The
theoretical distribution of the test statistic is obtained allowing
the computation of the ROC curves. The generalized likelihood ratio
detector is then studied for the practical case were the change parameters
are unknown. This detector requires the maximum likelihood estimates
of the parameters. ROC curves are then determined using computer simulations.

Abstract:
Recent advances have been made regarding quadrature receiver I/Q mismatch
calibration. In particular, Green/Anderson-Sprecher/Pierre present
a nonlinear regression (NLR) -based algorithm that utilizes a pure
sinusoidal test signal for sensor calibration [1]. This paper develops
a double side-band suppressed carrier (DSB-SC) signal model for use
with NLR-based calibration methods. The DSB-SC model not only provides
a useful signal for calibration, it also demonstrates the model flexibility
inherent to nonlinear regression techniques. Simulations illustrate
the effectiveness of the DSB-SC signal model for the calibration of
I/Q sensors.

Abstract:
The problem of model selection is addressed. Bootstrap methods based
on residuals are used to select the best model according to a prediction
criterion. Both the linear and the nonlinear models are treated. It
is shown that bootstrap methods are consistent and in simulations that
in most cases they outperform classical techniques such as Akaike's
information criterion and Rissanen's minimum description length. We
also show how the methods apply to dependent data models such as autoregressive
models.

Abstract:
An algorithm for synthesizing color textures from a small set of parameters
is presented in this paper. The synthesis algorithm is based on the
2-D moving average model, and realistic textures resembling many real
textures can be synthesized using this algorithm. A maximum likelihood
estimation algorithm to estimate parameters from a sample texture is
also presented. Using the estimated parameters, a texture larger than
the original image can be synthesized from a small texture sample.
In the experiment, various textures suitable for multimedia applications
are synthesized from parameters estimated from real textures.

Abstract:
We propose and prove an extended sampling theorem for linear time-varying
systems. As a result, we establish a discrete-time equivalent model
of the input-output relation of the system for the case of bandlimited
inputs and bandlimited system variation. The sampling of the output
signal and an equivalent discrete-time model of the system are discussed.
