Implementation Of Complexity Reduction Algorithm For Intra Mode Selection In H.264/AVC
(Electrical Engineering, 2012-04-11)
For applications with low computational capabilities like handheld devices, it is necessary that the encoding complexity is minimal. But H.264, which is the most widely accepted video platform employs several powerful ...
Complexity Reduction In H.264 Encoder Using Open Multiprocessing
(Electrical Engineering, 2012-07-25)
H.264 video standard developed by Joint Video Team has proven dramatic improvements in bit-rate efficiency, compression ratio, video quality and error resilience. But, all this is achieved at the expense of more than four ...
Fingerprint Enhancement By Directional Filtering
(Electrical Engineering, 2012-04-11)
Although inkless methods for taking fingerprint impressions are now available, these methods still suffer from the positional shifting caused by the skin elasticity. The non cooperative attitude of suspects or criminals ...
Multi-variable Model Of A Neural Network Based Weather Forecaster Using 2-stage Feature Selection
(Electrical Engineering, 2012-07-25)
This thesis proposes a novel approach for designing a neural network based forecaster that predicts more than one variable at a time. A second order two stage neural network training algorithm is used that employs orthogonal ...
Second Order Training Algorithms For Radial Basis Function Neural Networks
(Electrical Engineering, 2012-04-11)
A systematic two step batch approach for constructing and training of Radial basis function (RBF) neural networks is presented. Unlike other RBF learning algorithms, the proposed paradigm uses <italic>optimal learning ...
