Using fourier-based shape alignment to add geometric prior to snakes
In this paper, we present a new algorithm of snakes with geometric prior. A method of shape alignment using Fourier coefficients is introduced to estimate the Euclidean transform...

Novel schemes for nonlinear acoustic echo cancellation based on filter combinations
Nonlinear acoustic echo cancellers (NLAEC) are becoming increasingly important in hands-free applications. However, in some situations, an NLAEC is inferior to a linear AEC, espec...
