Automation, computational time and cost are open subjects in microarray image processing. The present paper proposes image processing techniques together with their implementations in order to eliminate the shortcomings of the existing software platforms for microarray image processing: user intervention, increased computational time and cost. Thus, for each step of microarray image processing, application-specific hardware architectures are designed aiming algorithms parallelization for fast processing. Computational time is estimated and compared with state of the art approaches. The proposed hardware architectures integrated inside microarray scanners deliver microarray image characteristics in an automated manner, excluding the need of an additional software platform. The FPGA technology was chosen for implementation, due to its parallel computation capabilities and ease of reconfiguration.

This paper proposes a high speed and low area architecture for the implementation of a FIR (Finite Impulse Response) filter into a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) device. The new FIR filter type is implemented with no multiplication block, using only adders and shifting registers. This is possible because a coefficient approximation is performed, using an algorithm that computes the coefficients like a sum-of-power-of-two terms.

There are lots of classification and feature extraction algorithms in the field of brain computer interface. It is significant to use optimal classification algorithm and fewer features to implement a fast and accurate brain computer interface system. In this paper, we evaluate the performances of five classical classifiers in different aspects including classification accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, Kappa and computational time in low-dimensional feature vectors extracted from EEG signals. The experiments show that naive Bayes is the most appropriate classifier for low dimensional feature vectors compared to k-nearest neighbor, support vector machine, linear discriminant analysis and decision tree classifiers.

This paper briefly shows the influence of handmade picewise-linear approximation on the global dynamics on the selected third-order systems with the quadratic vector fields. These effects are demonstrated using concept of the Ljapunov exponents calculation. The approximated systems are verified by means of the real electronic circuits derived using integrator synthesis and time-domain analysis in Oread Pspice simulator. The universality of the proposed method is discussed and future perspectives are provided.

In this research, the effect of laser phase noise fixing is investigated for different optical channel parameters such as dispersion, attenuation and link distance for Coherent Optical Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (CO-OFDM) systems. The effect of laser phase noise is examined at different data rates and link distances utilizing only one RF and optical carrier. In this research Phase Shift Keying (PSK) is used as a digital modulation format to maintain the maximum data rate with the acceptable BER value. By fixing the laser phase noise 1.7 Tb/s (111∗16 Gb/s) can be obtained from 191.4 to 185.9 THz at 50 GHz spacing over 1000 km link distance using only one optical cable in C and L bands according to the Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T). In that case high level modulation formats (N-PSK) should be performed with DWDM technique.

This paper presents a novel algorithm for segmented (segmentwise) computation of forward and inverse wavelet transform via a lifting scheme, applicable to any type of a lifting scheme representation of wavelets. The main idea is to process segments taken from a long one-dimensional signal so that after reconstruction, no border distortion between segments occurs. This is achieved by means of sophisticated segment overlapping. In this work, arbitrary and possibly varying segment lengths are considered. The derivation of formulas for overlap enumeration is the main concern of this work. The algorithm produces sets of coefficients for each segment. These sets from each segment ordered correctly are exactly the same coefficients the whole signal discrete wavelet transform results in. Similarly, the whole signal inverse discrete wavelet transform is equal to applying the algorithm to sets of coefficients and overlapping the results accordingly. The algorithm makes it possible to process signals in realtime, allows coarse parallelization since the computation on the particular segments is independent and also allows computation of wavelet transform on devices with a limited amount of memory.

This paper deals with localization of Temporomandibular Joint Disc (TJD) in Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI). Since the contrast of the TJD is quite low when compared to noise ratio when displayed using MRI, its detection is quite complicated. Therefore the method described in this paper are not not focused the disk itself but detect the most significant objects around TJD, which has usually much higher contrast. For the automatic TJD localization asessment, a training set containing 160 training samples (80 positive and 80 negative) were created and published and several approaches were examined to find the best method. The best results were achieved using support vector machine with Gaussian kernel, which achieved 98.16±2.81% accuracy of detection. The creation of the training models for feature extraction and model evaluation was implemented with RapidMiner tool and the IMMI extension. The models created are published at the IMMI extension homepage and they can also serve as a guide to use of the IMMI extension.

The standard ground penetrating radar (GPR) realized with pulsing technology has its limitations and alternatives exist. Using vector network analyzer (VNA) with time domain transformation is possible, but cost of such implementation is prohibitive. The sixport measurement system can be used as alternative to standard VNA. The comparison of the test cases measured by VNA and sixport are in the paper. The resolution is the same and the dynamic range even greater with the use of sixport system.

This paper deals with segmentation methods and fatigue features determination for a camera-based visual systems monitoring driver vigilance. Generally visual monitoring systems have to analyse a set of computed fatigue features and recognize driver inattention or sleepiness. The paper is focused mostly on the segmentation methods used for reliable eyes tracking because of eyes features are certainly the most significant features for determining of a driver fatigue. Fundamentals segmentation methods as a simple colour segmentation and Hough transform are introduced in the paper. After that a more complex Haar-like features approach and symmetries detection approach are shortly introduced. Finally, several of the leading fatigue features are listed and described. All the presented segmentation methods were tested on both laboratory and real images.
