    摘要: A neuro-fuzzy filter device that implements a moving-average filtering technique in which the weights for final reconstruction of the signal are calculated in a neuro-fuzzy network according to specific fuzzy rules. The fuzzy rules operate on three signal features for each input sample. The signal features are correlated to the position of the sample in the considered sample window, to the difference between a sample and the sample at the center of the window, and to the difference between a sample and the average of the samples in the window. The filter device for the analysis of a voice signal includes a bank of neuro-fuzzy filters. The signal is split into a number of sub-bands, according to wavelet theory, using a bank of analysis filters including a pair of FIR QMFs and a pair of downsamplers; each sub-band signal is filtered by a neuro-fuzzy filter, and then the various sub-bands are reconstructed by a bank of synthesis filters including a pair of upsamplers, a pair of FIR QMFs, and an adder node.

    摘要: A video image decoder architecture for implementing a processing algorithm in the 40-ms mode on high-resolution TV sets, of a kind adapted to handle TV signals being received on respective transmission channels (J,L), which comprises a video signal demultiplexer receiving the transmission channels (J,L); and respective processing blocks for separately handling the signals from each of the channels (J,L). Each processing block includes a video image format converter, a local memory connected to an output of the converter, and at least one median filter and one systolic filter cascade connected after the memory for restoring, by interpolation, signal samples related to successive lines of the video image. A summing node adds the outputs from each processing block so as to obtain a time mean between restored samples of the channels (J,L). This architecture drastically reduces the number of memories required for processing the restored algorithm, as well as reducing overall silicon area requirements for the system. Accordingly, the whole 40-millisecond processing portion may be integrated into a single chip.

    摘要: The filter includes an arithmetical chain of parallel adders alternated with delay elements, and a memory constituted by lines of one-bit cells. Each line is addressable by a decoder controlled by a digital signal to be filtered; each line of memory contains side by side values which correspond to the partial products of successive impulse-response coefficients for a value equal to the line address. The memory additionally includes a number of read amplifiers. The number of read amplifiers is equal to the number of cells of one line in order to read the bits of the addressed. The outputs of the amplifiers are connected to respective parallel inputs of the adders of the arithmetical chain. Each memory line contains these values in two's-complement binary form in words which decrease in length by one bit for each increment of 2 in the characteristic of the coefficients, starting from the one of lowest characteristic. The output of each read amplifier corresponding to the most significant bit of each value is connected to the corresponding input bit line of the associated adder and to all the other most significant input bit lines.

    摘要: The fuzzy filtering of a noise signal comprising a plurality of signal samples [s(t,k)] is carried out using as variables the variation of the signal in the considered window and the distance of the samples from a sample to be reconstructed, to distinguish the typical variations of the original signal from those due to the noise and to identify the signal fronts. The method comprises the steps of defining a current signal sample [s(t)] from among the plurality of signal samples, calculating a plurality of difference samples [D(t,k)] as the difference in absolute value between the current signal sample and each signal sample and defining distance values (k) between the current signal sample and each signal sample. The method further comprises determining weight parameters [P(k)] on the basis of the difference samples and the distance values by means of fuzzy logic and weighing the signal samples with the weight parameters so as to obtain a reconstructed signal sample [o(t)].

    摘要: A filter performs a reduction of pulsed noise in video images in accordance with fuzzy logic. An interface circuit of the filter receives consecutive digital signals in time corresponding to the video images and generates an image window having a digital signal to be processed at the center. The filter also has a comparator block, a plurality of digital subtractors, and a memory circuit connected in cascade to the comparator block. The filter also has a filtering circuit that organizes values of digital signals of the video image, and an arithmetic block that performs a switch between the digital signal to be processed and the output of the filtering circuit on the basis of the values taken by the parameter.
