The purpose of this thesis is to develop new methods for automatic transcription of melody and harmonic parts of real-life music signal. Music transcription is here defined as an act of analyzing a piece of music signal and writing down the parameter repre ...
"Random spikes" belong to the common language used by engineers, physicists and biologists to describe events associated with time records, locations in space, or more generally, space-time events. Indeed, data and signals consisting of, or structured by, ...
The Karhunen–Loève transform (KLT) is a key ele- ment of many signal processing and communication tasks. Many recent applications involve distributed signal processing, where it is not generally possible to apply the KLT to the entire signal; rather, the K ...
We propose an information theoretic model that unifies a wide range of existing information theoretic signal processing algorithms in a compact mathematical framework. It is mainly based on stochastic processes, Markov chains and error probabilities. The p ...
Sparse approximation using redundant dictionaries is an efficient tool for many applications in the field of signal processing. The performances largely depend on the adaptation of the dictionary to the signal to decompose. As the statistical dependencies ...
We consider large sensor networks where the cost of collecting data from the network nodes to the data gathering sink is critical.~We propose several algorithms that use limited local communication and distributed signal processing to make communication mo ...
Whenever the speech signal is captured by a microphone distant from the user, the acoustic response of the room introduces significant distortions. To remove these distortions from the signal, solutions exist that greatly improve the ASR performance (what ...
We aim at developing autonomous micro-flyers capable of navigating within houses or small built environments. The severe weight and energy constraints of indoor flying platforms led us to take inspiration from flying insects for the selection of sensors, s ...
The main objective was to show that the acoustic tomography constitutes a new method to investigate the main hydrodynamical processes of the lake of Geneva. The work is based of the various related fields to the tomography, namely : acoustic wave propagati ...
By combining the field-susceptibility technique with the optical Bloch equations, a general formalism is developed for the investigation of molecular photophysical phenomena triggered by nanometer scale optical fields in the presence of complex environment ...
