Digital image processingDigital image processing is the use of a digital computer to process s through an algorithm. As a subcategory or field of digital signal processing, digital image processing has many advantages over . It allows a much wider range of algorithms to be applied to the input data and can avoid problems such as the build-up of noise and distortion during processing. Since images are defined over two dimensions (perhaps more) digital image processing may be modeled in the form of multidimensional systems.
Morlet waveletIn mathematics, the Morlet wavelet (or Gabor wavelet) is a wavelet composed of a complex exponential (carrier) multiplied by a Gaussian window (envelope). This wavelet is closely related to human perception, both hearing and vision. Wavelet#History In 1946, physicist Dennis Gabor, applying ideas from quantum physics, introduced the use of Gaussian-windowed sinusoids for time-frequency decomposition, which he referred to as atoms, and which provide the best trade-off between spatial and frequency resolution.
Joint encodingIn audio engineering, joint encoding refers to a joining of several channels of similar information during encoding in order to obtain higher quality, a smaller file size, or both. The term joint stereo has become prominent as the Internet has allowed for the transfer of relatively low bit rate, acceptable-quality audio with modest Internet access speeds. Joint stereo refers to any number of encoding techniques used for this purpose. Two forms are described here, both of which are implemented in various ways with different codecs, such as MP3, AAC and Ogg Vorbis.
Transform codingTransform coding is a type of data compression for "natural" data like audio signals or photographic s. The transformation is typically lossless (perfectly reversible) on its own but is used to enable better (more targeted) quantization, which then results in a lower quality copy of the original input (lossy compression). In transform coding, knowledge of the application is used to choose information to discard, thereby lowering its bandwidth. The remaining information can then be compressed via a variety of methods.
Erreur quadratique moyenneEn statistiques, l’erreur quadratique moyenne d’un estimateur d’un paramètre de dimension 1 (mean squared error (), en anglais) est une mesure caractérisant la « précision » de cet estimateur. Elle est plus souvent appelée « erreur quadratique » (« moyenne » étant sous-entendu) ; elle est parfois appelée aussi « risque quadratique ».

Sparse dictionary learningSparse dictionary learning (also known as sparse coding or SDL) is a representation learning method which aims at finding a sparse representation of the input data in the form of a linear combination of basic elements as well as those basic elements themselves. These elements are called atoms and they compose a dictionary. Atoms in the dictionary are not required to be orthogonal, and they may be an over-complete spanning set. This problem setup also allows the dimensionality of the signals being represented to be higher than the one of the signals being observed.
Quadrature mirror filterIn digital signal processing, a quadrature mirror filter is a filter whose magnitude response is the mirror image around of that of another filter. Together these filters, first introduced by Croisier et al., are known as the quadrature mirror filter pair. A filter is the quadrature mirror filter of if . The filter responses are symmetric about : In audio/voice codecs, a quadrature mirror filter pair is often used to implement a filter bank that splits an input signal into two bands.
Acquisition compriméeL'acquisition comprimée (en anglais compressed sensing) est une technique permettant de trouver la solution la plus parcimonieuse d'un système linéaire sous-déterminé. Elle englobe non seulement les moyens pour trouver cette solution mais aussi les systèmes linéaires qui sont admissibles. En anglais, elle porte le nom de Compressive sensing, Compressed Sampling ou Sparse Sampling.
Classe de complexitéEn informatique théorique, et plus précisément en théorie de la complexité, une classe de complexité est un ensemble de problèmes algorithmiques dont la résolution nécessite la même quantité d'une certaine ressource. Une classe est souvent définie comme l'ensemble de tous les problèmes qui peuvent être résolus sur un modèle de calcul M, utilisant une quantité de ressources du type R, où n, est la taille de l'entrée. Les classes les plus usuelles sont celles définies sur des machines de Turing, avec des contraintes de temps de calcul ou d'espace.
