This study suggests using a selected geometric invariant point through the whole processing procedure of an image and inserting and extracting based on the invariant point so that it will be robust in a geometric transformation attack. The introduced algorithm here is based on a watershed splittling method in order to make medical images strong against RST transformation and other processing. It also helps to maintain the watermark in images that are compressed and stored for a period of time.

A new parameter estimation method for linear chirp signal is proposed. This method utilizes the Discrete Fractional Fourier Transform (DFRFT) along with Bowtie Chirplet Transform to estimate the amplitude and phase parameters of multi-component chirp signals. DFRFT is used for estimating amplitude parameter whereas the chirp rate and initial frequency are estimated using Chirplet Transform. Performance of the proposed method in noise is analyzed by Monte- Carlo simulation for different Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). Good performance was achieved at SNR as low as -10 dB.

In this paper we have survey on biometric payment system. Biometric payment system is used for various kinds of payment system instead of the tension of cards to put with them and to memorize their difficult passwords and pin numbers. Biometric payment system is much safe and secure and very easy to use and even without using any password or secret codes to remember as compared with previous system like creditcard payment system, wireless system and mobile system etc. Biometric payment system is reliable, economical and it has more advantages as compared with others. In daily life the usage of credit cards, check card for shopping, bus card, subway card for traveling, student card for library and department, and many kinds of cards for unlimited purposes and so on. So problem is that a person has to take many cards and has to remember their passwords or secret codes and to keep secure to take with him all time. So the biometric payment system will solve this problem. Greater adoption of biometric payment system will drive down the cost of biometric readers and thus making it more affordable to small business owners. We really need alternate payment systems. This "perpetual toll" to credit card companies has to stop.

Lots of researches and applications on the automated overhead cranes in shops have been done for some decades, but a few successful results are reported. A more reasonable control system fit to requirements of manufacturing industries is suggested in the study. The controller was designed in the continuous time domain by loop-shaping method. Sway of the rope is suppressed by anti-sway control method. The sway angle of the rope is measured by a sway angle sensor which is mechanically in contact with the rope. The real-time control law is comprised of the position and the anti-sway controller. Some algorithms required for coil yard operation as well as main control algorithms such as reference position generation, position control and anti-sway control have been designed and fully tested on a crane in the steel-making works. The designed crane control system showed satisfactory performance on position control accuracy and anti-sway of rope. The maximum positional error is 20 mm and the maximum sway error is 0.07 degrees in the destination position.

With the advancement of technology, various services can be combined in a single computer system, such as Mobile Computing, and Digital Home, etc. With the properties of compact size, low power consumption, and full computing power, multi-core processor systems can be used to fulfill these kind of applications. For a set of hybrid tasks which comprise large real-time and non-real-time applications, however, currently, the operating system does not have any scheduling policy to improve the performance on multi-core platforms effectively. The task scheduling of operating system for general purpose applications can not satisfy the working demand of hybrid tasks, especially with large amount of real-time tasks. In this paper, we proposed a hybrid task scheduling scheme for multi-core platforms. In the proposed scheme, a two-level hierarchical scheduling is applied to adjust real-time and non-real-time tasks. It can not only maintain the response time of general tasks, but also support the real-time requirements for other tasks. The experimental results show that a higher efficiency can be obtained by applying the proposed scheme on multi-core architectures.

In this paper, we propose a new vision based method to recognize the entering and exiting events from video sequences via motion analysis. Without sensors, the proposed approach is invariant to body shape and clothing as a combination of edge detection, motion history image and geometrical characteristic of the human shape in MHI sequences. The proposed method includes several applications such as access control in visual surveillance and computer vision fields.

In this paper we propose a content aware fast block matching motion estimation algorithm that can reduce the computation complexity of motion estimation module in H.264/AVC while maintaining almost same coding efficiency. In the first step inter block correlation is used to define a correlation coefficient that helps to identify the motion content of the current block. Based on this coefficient the algorithm adopts different search strategies for different video contents to get more efficient matches. Implementation of the proposed algorithm in JM12.2 of H.264/AVC shows reduction in encoding time while maintaining almost same bit rate and PSNR.

The existing home appliances could be used after buying and plug in it. Appliances become intelligent, conveniences, and supply a lot of functions. However, the usages and setting ways are complex. Furthermore, the users need to upgrade version occasionally in the using time. In the paper we embody an auto configuration method in the home server which update configuration automatically when the appliances are connected. The suggested method in the smart home-networking environments overcomes those difficulties of the home gateway and/or home server. It can make access to the home gateway and/or home server to yield a lot of profits of maintenances and repairs. This paper describes how it adapts to conditions where administration is minimized, and where network administrators in large enterprises wish to reduce tedium and workload.

Mobile information services will play an important role in our future work and private life. Enabling mobility in urban and populous areas needs novel techniques for individual traffic planning. However, though there already are WAP-based traffic systems featuring route planning, their usability is not often universal. We present a SMS-based urban public traffic information system (SMS-UPTS) offering exact transfer query service and supporting most mobile devices. The SMS-UPTS makes use of bus station library model and least transfer path search algorithm. The least transfer path search algorithm is consisted of direct reach path search algorithm and least transfer converse search algorithm (CS-LT). Bus station library model improves veracity of Chinese parse word algorithm and flexibility of traffic information system, and direct reach path search algorithm can immediately get paths whose bus stations are on the same line, and CS-LT algorithm is based on point to point least transfer algorithm (P2P-LT) which makes use of adjacent and reachable matrixes, it greatly improves transfer algorithm performance. And the implementation results show that the performance of P2P-LS algorithm is better than Dijkstra algorithm and the SMS-UPTS has good efficiency.
