This paper presents the algorithm for on-line adaptive Kalman filtering of sensor signals with unknown signal to noise ratio. A first order spectrum of a pure signal and white Gaussian measurement noise have been assumed. The results of the performance tests of the algorithm as well as the design methodology of the adaptive filter are given.

Purpose This paper aims to present an inexact 4:2 compressor cell using carbon nanotube filed effect transistors (CNFETs). Design/methodology/approach To design this cell, the capacitive threshold logic (CTL) has been used. Findings To evaluate the proposed cell, comprehensive simulations are carried out at two levels of the circuit and image processing. At the circuit level, the HSPICE software has been used and the power consumption, delay, and power-delay product are calculated. Also, the power-delaytransistor count product (PDAP) is used to make a compromise between all metrics. On the other hand, the Monte Carlo analysis has been used to scrutinize the robustness of the proposed cell against the variations in the manufacturing process. The results of simulations at this level of abstraction indicate the superiority of the proposed cell to other circuits. At the application level, the MATLAB software is also used to evaluate the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) figure of merit. At this level, the two primary images are multiplied by a multiplier circuit consisting of 4:2 compressors. The results of this simulation also show the superiority of the proposed cell to others. Originality/value This cell significantly reduces the number of transistors and only consists of NOT gates.

Abstract A simple and fast method was developed for the simultaneous determination of dapsone and pyrimethamine by first-order digital derivative spectrophotometry. Acetonitrile was used as a solvent to extract the drugs from the pharmaceutical formulations, and the samples were subsequently evaluated directly by digital derivative spectrophotometry. The simultaneous determination of both drugs was performed by the zero-crossing method at 249.4 and 231.4 nm for dapsone and pyrimethamine, respectively. The best signal-to-noise ratio was obtained when the first derivative of the spectrum was used. The linear range of determination for the drugs was from 6.6 × 10−7 to 2.0 × 10−4 and from 2.5 × 10−6 to 2.0 × 10−4 mol/L for dapsone and pyrimethamine, respectively. The excipients of commercial pharmaceutical formulations did not interfere in the analysis. Chemical and spectral variables were optimized for determination of both analytes. A good level of repeatability, 0.6 and 1.7% for dapsone and pyrimethamine, respectively, was observed. The proposed method was applied for the simultaneous determination of both drugs in pharmaceutical formulations.

Image deblurring under the background of impulse noise is a typically ill-posed inverse problem which attracted great attention in the fields of image processing and computer vision. The fast total variation deconvolution (FTVd) algorithm proved to be an effective way to solve this problem. However, it only considers sparsity of the first-order total variation, resulting in staircase artefacts. The L1 norm is adopted in the FTVd model to depict the sparsity of the impulse noise, while the L1 norm has limited capacity of depicting it. To overcome this limitation, we present a new algorithm based on the Lp-pseudo-norm and total generalized variation (TGV) regularization. The TGV regularization puts sparse constraints on both the first-order and second-order gradients of the image, effectively preserving the image edge while relieving undesirable artefacts. The Lp-pseudo-norm constraint is employed to replace the L1 norm constraint to depict the sparsity of the impulse noise more precisely. The alternating direction method of multipliers is adopted to solve the proposed model. In the numerical experiments, the proposed algorithm is compared with some state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity (SSIM), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), operation time, and visual effects to verify its superiority.

This article aims to carry out a comparative study between discrete-time and discrete-frequency Kalman filters. In order to assess the performance of both methods for speech reconstruction, we measured the output segmental signal-to-noise ratio and the Itakura-Saito distance provided by each algorithm over 25 different voice signals. The results show that although the two algorithms performed very similarly regarding noise reduction, the discrete-time Kalman filter produced smaller spectral distortion on the estimated signals when compared with the discrete-frequency Kalman filter.

Noise, an important factor which impact on the performance of ultrasonic online testing system, has a direct influence on the signal-to-noise ratios level of ultrasonic signal acquisition. Noise problem of grain ultrasonic online testing system has been studied in this paper from two aspects, theoretical analysis and engineering practices. In this case, we can solve the noise interference problem in ultrasonic online testing system, and improve the performance of system and signal-to-noise ratio of signal acquisition.
