Abstract

In this paper, we present an automatic application of 3D face recognition system using geodesic distance in Riemannian geometry. We consider, in this approach, the three dimensional face images as residing in Riemannian manifold and we compute the geodesic distance using the Jacobi iterations as a solution of the Eikonal equation. The problem of solving the Eikonal equation, unstructured simplified meshes of 3D face surface, such as tetrahedral and triangles are important for accurately modeling material interfaces and curved domains, which are approximations to curved surfaces in R3. In the classifying steps, we use: Neural Networks (NN), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM). To test this method and evaluate its performance, a simulation series of experiments were performed on 3D Shape REtrieval Contest 2008 database (SHREC2008).

Abstract

This paper presents an automatic speaker identification and speech recognition for Arabic digits in noisy environment. In this work, the proposed system is able to identify the speaker after saving his voice in the database and adding noise. The mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) is the best approach used in building a program in the Matlab platform; also, the quantization is used for generating the codebooks. The Gaussian mixture modelling (GMM) algorithms are used to generate template, feature-matching purpose. In this paper, we have proposed a system based on MFCC-GMM and MFCC-VQ Approaches on the one hand and by using the Hybrid Approach MFCC-VQ-GMM on the other hand for speaker modeling. The White Gaussian noise is added to the clean speech at several signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) levels to test the system in a noisy environment. The proposed system gives good results in recognition rate.

Abstract

In this paper, we present an extension of linear communication channels identification algorithms to non linear channels using higher order cumulants (HOC). In the one hand, we develop a theoretical analysis of non linear quadratic systems using second and third order cumulants. In the other hand, the relationship linking cumulants and the coefficients of non linear channels presented in the linear case is extended to the general case of the non linear quadratic systems identification. This theoretical development is used to develop three non linear algorithms based on third and fourth order cumulants respectively. Numerical simulation results example show that the proposed methods able to estimate the impulse response parameterswith different precision.

Abstract

Scientific research is a major issue for universities because it ensures its innovation and productivity, but to ensure the proper functioning of universities, the decisions-makers need powerful tools to assist them in this process. Multi criteria decision making (MCDM) may present an appropriate asset for this area especially with the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) which presents a theory of measurement through pairwise comparisons and relies on the judgments of experts to derive priority scales.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to contribute to study the problems of the blind identification and equalization using Higher Order Cumulants (HOC) in downlink Multi-Carrier Code Division Multiple Access (MC-CDMA) systems. For this problem, two blind algorithms based on HOC for Broadband Radio Access Network (BRAN) channel are proposed. In the one hand, to assess the performance of these approaches to identify the parameters of non minimum phase channels, we have considered two theoretical channels, and one practical frequency selective fading channel called BRAN C, driven by non gaussian signal. In the other hand, we use the Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) equalizer technique after the channel identification to correct the channel distortion. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulation results, in noisy environment and for different signal to noise ratio (SNR), are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed methods.
