Institute of Electronics and Computer science

Institute of Electronics and Computer Science (EDI) announces the opening of the competition for preliminary selection of postdoctoral applications for submission to the State Education Development Agency (SEDA) under the Activity 1.1.1.2 “Post-doctoral Research Aid” of the Specific Aid Objective 1.1.1 “To increase the research and innovative capacity of scientific institutions of Latvia and the ability to attract external financing, investing in human resources and infrastructure” of the Ope

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Signal Processing

In this paper, we propose a novel non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme with beamwidth control for hybrid millimeter wave communication systems and study the resource allocation design to maximize the system energy efficiency. In particular, NOMA transmission allows more than one user to share a single radio frequency chain, which is beneficial to enhance the system energy efficiency. More importantly, the proposed beamwidth control can increase the number of served NOMA groups by widening the beamwidth that can further exploit the energy efficiency gain brought by NOMA.

Nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is promising for increasing connectivity and capacity. But there has been little consideration on the quality of service of NOMA; let alone that in generic fading channels. This paper establishes closed-form upper bounds for the delay violation probability of downlink Nakagami- mand Rician NOMA channels, by exploiting stochastic network calculus (SNC).

The significant advances of cellular systems and mobile Internet services have yielded a variety of computation intensive applications, resulting in great challenge to mobile terminals (MTs) with limited computation resources. Mobile edge computing, which enables MTs to offload their computation tasks to edge servers located at cellular base stations (BSs), has provided a promising approach to address this challenging issue.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is one of the promising radio access techniques for next generation wireless networks. Opportunistic multi-user scheduling is necessary to fully exploit multiplexing gains in NOMA systems, but compared with traditional scheduling, inter-relations between users’ throughputs induced by multi-user interference poses new challenges in the design of NOMA schedulers. 

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Signal Processing

Given the recent surge in developments of deep learning, this paper provides a review of the state-of-the-art deep learning techniques for audio signal processing. Speech, music, and environmental sound processing are considered side-by-side, in order to point out similarities and differences between the domains, highlighting general methods, problems, key references, and potential for cross fertilization between areas.

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Signal Processing

We address voice activity detection in acoustic environments of transients and stationary noises, which often occur in real-life scenarios. We exploit unique spatial patterns of speech and non-speech audio frames by independently learning their underlying geometric structure. This process is done through a deep encoder-decoder-based neural network architecture.

The IEEE Signal Processing Society congratulates the following recipients who will receive the 2018 IEEE Signal Processing Society Paper Award for their papers published in the IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Signal Processing. Presentation of the paper awards will take place at ICASSP 2019 in Brighton, UK.

University of Virginia

The Departments of Biomedical Engineering and Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Virginia seek Research Associates to work in the laboratory of Dr. Gustavo Rohde (imagedatascience.com) to perform research on pattern recognition, machine learning, and image and signal analysis with applications to biomedical imaging, cancer detection, mobile and remote sensing, and others.

The 29th MLSP workshop in the series of workshops organized by the IEEE Signal Processing Society MLSP Technical Committee will present the most recent and exciting advances in machine learning for signal processing through keynote talks, tutorials, as well as special and regular single-track sessions.

IEEE Transactions on Multimedia

We propose a novel technique for steganography on 3-D meshes so as to resist steganalysis. The majority of existing methods modulate vertex coordinates to embed messages in a nonadaptive way. We take account of complexity of local regions as joint distortion of a triple unit (vertice) and coding method such as syndrome trellis codes to adaptively embed messages, which owns stronger security with respect to existing steganalysis.

IEEE Transactions on Multimedia

In general, low-rank representation (LRR) aims to find the lowest rank representation with respect to a dictionary. In fact, the dictionary is a key aspect of low-rank representation. However, a lot of low-rank representation methods usually use the data itself as a dictionary (i.e., a fixed dictionary), which may degrade their performances due to the lack of clustering ability of a fixed dictionary.

IEEE Transactions on Multimedia

The partition algorithm as a digital image processing technique is significant to many applications, such as data encryption, image denoising, and 3-D reconstruction. In order to achieve well partition that can availably reduce the distortion phenomenon, a novel approach named image adaptive triangular partition (IATP) is proposed, which considers the grayscale distribution of the image and removes...

IEEE Transactions on Multimedia

The problem of authenticating a re-sampled image has been investigated over many years. Currently, however, little research proposes a statistical model-based test, resulting in that statistical performance of the resampling detector could not be completely analyzed. To fill the gap, we utilize a parametric model to expose the traces of resampling forgery, which is described with the distribution of residual noise.

IEEE Transactions on Image Processing

We present a compression scheme for multiview imagery that facilitates high scalability and accessibility of the compressed content. Our scheme relies upon constructing at a single base view, a disparity model for a group of views, and then utilizing this base-anchored model to infer disparity at all views belonging to the group.

IEEE Transactions on Image Processing

Signal decomposition is a classical problem in signal processing, which aims to separate an observed signal into two or more components, each with its own property. Usually, each component is described by its own subspace or dictionary. Extensive research has been done for the case where the components are additive, but in real-world applications, the components are often non-additive.

IEEE Transactions on Image Processing

The surface normal estimation from photometric stereo becomes less reliable when the surface reflectance deviates from the Lambertian assumption. The non-Lambertian effect can be explicitly addressed by physics modeling to the reflectance function, at the cost of introducing highly nonlinear optimization.

IEEE Transactions on Image Processing

Being able to cover a wide range of views, pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras have been widely deployed in visual surveillance systems. To achieve a global-view perception of a surveillance scene, it is necessary to generate its panoramic background image, which can be used for the subsequent applications such as road segmentation, active tracking, and so on.
