Three wavelet-based spectral smoothing techniques are presented in this paper as a pre-processing stage for head-related transfer function (HRTF) filter design. These wavelet-based methods include wavelet denoising, wavelet approximation, and redundant wavelet transform. These methods are used with time-domain parametric filter design methods to reduce the order of the IIR filters which is useful for real-time implementation of immersive audio systems. Results of a subjective listening test are then presented in order to justify the perceptual validity of the investigated smoothing methods. Results show that wavelet based spectral smoothing methods are beneficial in reducing the filter order and increasing the perception of localization without introducing noticeable effect on timbre.

Wavelet domain image resolution enhancement Temizel, Alptekin (2006-02-01) A wavelet-domain image resolution enhancement algorithm which is based on the estimation of detail wavelet coefficients at high resolution scales is proposed. The method exploits wavelet coefficient correlation in a local neighbourhood sense and employs linear least-squares regression to estimate the unknown detail coefficients. Results show that the proposed method is considerably superior to conventional image interpolation techniques, both in objective and subjective terms, while it also compares favoura...
Wavelet domain image resolution enhancement using cycle spinning and edge modelling Temizel, Alptekin (2005-09-08) In this paper we present a wavelet domain image resolution en-hancement algorithm. An initial high-resolution approximation to the original image is obtained by means of zero-padding in the wavelet domain. This is further processed using the cycle-spinning methodology which reduces ringing. A critical element of the algo-rithm is the adoption of a simplified edge profile suitable for the description of edge degradations such as blurring due to loss of resolution. Linear regression using a minimal training s...
Anlık Spektral Görüntüleme için Tasarım Eniyileme Ayazgök, Suleyman; Öktem, Sevinç Figen (2019-08-22) Snapshot spectral imaging enables to reconstructspectral images from a multiplexed single-shot measurement.Since an inversion is required to form the spectral images com-putationally, quantitative characterization of their performanceis essential to optimize the design. In this paper, we analyze theoptimal design of a snapshot spectral imaging technique. Thissnapshot multi-spectral imaging technique uses a diffractive lenscalled generalized photon sieve, and vari...
Surface Reconstruction from Multiple Images Filtering Non Lambert Regions BÜYÜATALAY, Soner; BİRGÜL, ÖZLEM; Halıcı, Uğur (2009-09-10) In this study a new algorithm for 3D surface reconstruction from multiple images using a modified photometric stereo method is proposed and tested. The new algorithm, Filtered Lambert Photometric Stereo (FLPS), determines the non-Lambert pixels in the available images using a linearity test and constructs filtering masks for each image that corresponds to specular and self or cast shadow regions. Then, the photometric stereo is applied after eliminating the points in these masks. Tests carried out on synthe...
DEPTH PREDICTION AT HOMOGENEOUS IMAGE STRUCTURES Kalkan, Sinan; Wörgötter, Florentin; Kruger, Norbert (2008-01-22) This paper proposes a voting-based model that predicts depth at weakly-structured image areas from the depth that is extracted using a feature-based stereo method. We provide results, on both real and artificial scenes, that show the accuracy and robustness of our approach. Moreover, we compare our method to different dense stereo algorithms to investigate the effect of texture on performance of the two different approaches. The results confirm the expectation that dense stereo methods are suited better...
