A novel oblivious video watermarking technique based on temporal sensitivity of Human Visual System (HVS) is proposed. The method exploits the temporal contrast thresholds of HVS to determine the maximum strength of watermark, which still gives imperceptible distortion after watermark insertion. Compared to the other methods in the literature, which do not use any HVS properties explicitly [12] or exploits only spatial properties of HVS [13], the proposed method guarantees to avoid flickering problem in the watermarked video and gives better robustness results to video distortions, such as additive Gaussian noise, ITU H.263+ coding at medium bit rates and frame averaging in terms of bit error rate.

Oblivious video watermaking using temporal sensitivity of HVS Koz, A; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2004-04-30) An oblivious video watermarking method is presented based on the temporal sensitivity of Human Visual System (HVS). The method exploits the temporal contrast thresholds of HVS to determine the maximum strength of watermark, which still gives imperceptible distortion after watermark insertion.

Temporal watermarking of digital video Koz, A; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2003-04-11) A video watermarking method is presented, based on the temporal sensitivity of Human Visual System (HVS). The method exploits the temporal contrast thresholds of HVS to determine the spatio-temporal locations, where the watermark should be embedded, and the maximum strength of watermark, which still gives imperceptible distortion after watermark insertion. The robustness results indicate that the proposed scheme survives video distortions, such as additive Gaussian noise, ITU H.263+ coding at medium bit rat...
Active surface passivation for SWIR InGaAs photodetectors Necati, Işık; Kocaman, Serdar; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2022-1) This thesis work offers a new method for improving one of the performance parameters in infrared photodetector technology. This method involves suppressing the surface dark current by utilizing a constant E-field on the surface of the photodetector. By interrupting the channel formation on the surface, a significant improvement in the generation-recombination (GR) dark current component is observed. Relatively minor improvements on differential resistance and the shunt component of the dark current are note...
Active vibration control of a smart beam : a spatial approach Kırcalı, Ömer Faruk; Yaman, Yavuz; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2006) This study presented the design and implementation of a spatial Hinf controller to suppress the free and forced vibrations of a cantilevered smart beam. The smart beam consists of a passive aluminum beam with surface bonded PZT (Lead-Zirconate-Titanate) patches. In this study, the PZT patches were used as the actuators and a laser displacement sensor was used as the sensor. In the first part of the study, the modeling of the smart beam by the assumed-modes method was conducted. The model correction techniqu...
Dim target detection in infrared imagery Çifçi, Barış; Atalay, Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006) This thesis examines the performance of some dim target detection algorithms in low-SNR imaging scenarios. In the past research, there have been numerous attempts for detection and tracking barely visible targets for military surveillance applications with infrared sensors. In this work, two of these algorithms are analyzed via extensive simulations. In one of these approaches, dynamic programming is exploited to coherently integrate the visible energy of dim targets over possible relative directions, where...
