The complex wavelet packet transform (CWPT) combine the merits of real wavelet packet transform with that of complex continuous wavelet transform (CCWT). It can not only pick up the phase information of signal, but also produce better ″focal- izing″ function if it matches the phase spectrum of signals analyzed. We here described the dual-tree CWPT algo- rithm, and gave the examples of simulation and actual seismic signals analysis. As shown by our results, the dual-tree CWPT is a very effective method in analyzing seismic signals with non-linear phase.展开更多

In this investigation,a defect recognition platform for 3D braided composites evaluation was constructed based on dual-tree complex wavelet packet transform( DT-CWPT) and backpropagation( BP) neural networks. The defects in 3D braided composite materials were probed and detected by an ultrasonic sensing system. DT-CWPT method was used to analyze the ultrasonic scanning pulse signals,and the feature vectors of these signals were extracted into the BP neural networks as samples. The type of defects was identified and recognized with the characteristic ultrasonic wave spectra. The position of defects for the test samples can be determined at the same time. This method would have great potential to evaluate the quality of 3D braided composites.展开更多

It is proved to be impossible to represent directional singularities optimally by a multi-resolution analysis (MRA) of L2(R2). Based on the above results, a new algorithm to construct Q-shift dual tree complex wavelet is proposed. By optimizing the main direction of parameterized wavelet filters, the difficulty in choosing stop-band frequency is overcome and the performances of the designed wavelet are improved too. Furthermore, results of image enhancement by various multi-scale methods are given, which show that the new designed Q-shift complex wavelet do offer significant improvement over the conventionally used wavelets. Direction sensitivity is an important index to the performance of 2D wavelets.展开更多

It is based on using the Complex Wavelet Transform (CWT) together with the Wavelet Packet Modulation (WPM). The proposed system has been tested for communication over flat and frequency selective Rayleigh fading channels and its performance has been compared with some other multicarrier systems. The simulation results show that the performance of the proposed CWPM system has the best performance in all types of channel considered as compared with OFDM, Slantlet based OFDM, FRAT based OFDM and WPM systems. Furthermore, the proposed scheme has less PAPR as compared with the traditional WPM multicarrier system.展开更多

Aiming for specific statistical properties of complex wavelet coefficients of gearbox vibration signals, a new signal-denoising method which uses local adaptive algorithm based on dual-tree complex wavelet transform （DT-CWT） is introduced to extract weak failure information in gear, especially to extract impulse components. By taking into account the non-Gaussian probability distribution and the statistical dependencies among wavelet coefficients of some signals, and by taking the advantage of near shift-invariance of DT-CWT, the higher signal-to-noise ratio （SNR） than common wavelet denoising methods can be obtained. Experiments of extracting periodic impulses in gearbox vibration signals indicate that the method can extract incipient fault feature and hidden information from heavy noise, and it has an excellent effect on identifying weak feature signals in gearbox vibration signals.展开更多

The proposed method is capable of tracking the moving object in video sequences. The object is assumed to be deform-able under limit i.e. it may change its shape from one frame to another. The basic idea in the proposed method is to decompose the image into two components: a two dimensional motion and a two dimensional shape change. The motion component is factored out while the shape is explicitly represented by storing a sequence of two dimensional models. Each model corresponds to each image frame. The proposed method performs well when the change in the shape in the consecutive frames is small however the 2-D motion in consecutive frames may be large. The proposed algorithm is capable of handling the partial as well as full occlusion of the object.展开更多

The method combines periodic plus smooth image decom- position with complex wavelet packet transforms. The framework first decomposes a degraded satellite im- age into the sum of a ＂periodic component＂ and a ＂smooth component＂. The Bayesian method is then used to estimate the modulation transfer function degradation parameters and the noise. The periodic component is deconvoluted using complex wavelet packet transforms with the deconvolution result of the periodic component then combined with the smooth component to get the final recovered result. Tests show that this strategy effectively avoids ringing artifacts while preserving local image details （especially directional tex- tures） without amplifying the noise. Quantitative comparisons illustrate that the results are comparable with previous methods. Another benefit is that this approach can process large satellite images with parallel processing, which is important for practical use.展开更多
