Space Object Identification Using Spatio-Temporal Pattern Recognition, Gary W. Brandstrom
Space Object Identification Using Spatio-Temporal Pattern Recognition, Gary W. Brandstrom
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis is part of a research effort to automate the task of characterizing space objects or satellites based on a sequence of images. The goal is to detect space object anomalies. Two algorithms are considered - the feature space trajectory neural network (FST NN) and hidden Markov model (HMM) classifier. The FST NN was first presented by Leonard Neiberg and David P. Casasent in 1994 as a target identification tool. Kenneth H. Fielding and Dennis W. Ruck recently applied the hidden Markov model classifier to a 3D moving light display identification problem and a target recognition problem, using time …
Adaptive And Fixed Wavelet Features For Narrowband Signal Classification, Anthony J. Pohl
Adaptive And Fixed Wavelet Features For Narrowband Signal Classification, Anthony J. Pohl
Theses and Dissertations
The application of the multiresolution analysis developed by Mallat to signal classification by Pati and Krishnaprasad and Szu, et al, is further explored in this thesis. Several different wavelet based feature extraction and classification systems are developed and implemented. Methods which rely on the traditional dyadic wavelet decomposition and on the adaptive wavelet representation are presented. Each of the classification systems is implemented for a labeled data set of narrowband signals. Finally, classification results on the full data set and on low frequency Fourier coefficients are provided as baseline comparisons for our work.

Human speech signals are inherently multi-component non-stationary signals. Recognition schemes for classification of non-stationary signals generally require some kind of temporal alignment to be performed. Examples of techniques used for temporal alignment include hidden Markov models and dynamic time warping. Attempts to incorporate temporal alignment into artificial neural networks have resulted in the construction of time-delay neural networks. The nonstationary nature of speech requires a signal representation that is dependent on time. Time-frequency signal analysis is an extension of conventional time-domain and frequency-domain analysis methods. Researchers have reported on the effectiveness of time-frequency representations to reveal the time-varying nature of …
