Traitement du sonLe traitement du son est la branche du traitement du signal qui s'applique aux signaux audio, dans le but notamment d'en améliorer la qualité, de les compresser, ou d'en extraire de l'information. Le terme analogique désigne quelque chose qui est mathématiquement représenté par une fonction continue. Donc un signal analogique est un signal représenté par un flux continu de donnée, ici dans un circuit électrique sous la forme de tension ou de courant.
Multisensory integrationMultisensory integration, also known as multimodal integration, is the study of how information from the different sensory modalities (such as sight, sound, touch, smell, self-motion, and taste) may be integrated by the nervous system. A coherent representation of objects combining modalities enables animals to have meaningful perceptual experiences. Indeed, multisensory integration is central to adaptive behavior because it allows animals to perceive a world of coherent perceptual entities.
Motion compensationMotion compensation in computing, is an algorithmic technique used to predict a frame in a video, given the previous and/or future frames by accounting for motion of the camera and/or objects in the video. It is employed in the encoding of video data for video compression, for example in the generation of MPEG-2 files. Motion compensation describes a picture in terms of the transformation of a reference picture to the current picture. The reference picture may be previous in time or even from the future.
Information extractionInformation extraction (IE) is the task of automatically extracting structured information from unstructured and/or semi-structured machine-readable documents and other electronically represented sources. In most of the cases this activity concerns processing human language texts by means of natural language processing (NLP). Recent activities in multimedia document processing like automatic annotation and content extraction out of images/audio/video/documents could be seen as information extraction Due to the difficulty of the problem, current approaches to IE (as of 2010) focus on narrowly restricted domains.
Graph cuts in computer visionAs applied in the field of computer vision, graph cut optimization can be employed to efficiently solve a wide variety of low-level computer vision problems (early vision), such as , the stereo correspondence problem, , object co-segmentation, and many other computer vision problems that can be formulated in terms of energy minimization. Many of these energy minimization problems can be approximated by solving a maximum flow problem in a graph (and thus, by the max-flow min-cut theorem, define a minimal cut of the graph).
Professional video cameraA professional video camera (often called a television camera even though its use has spread beyond television) is a high-end device for creating electronic moving images (as opposed to a movie camera, that earlier recorded the images on film). Originally developed for use in television studios or with outside broadcast trucks, they are now also used for music videos, direct-to-video movies (see digital movie camera), corporate and educational videos, wedding videos, among other uses.
Audio signalAn audio signal is a representation of sound, typically using either a changing level of electrical voltage for analog signals, or a series of binary numbers for digital signals. Audio signals have frequencies in the audio frequency range of roughly 20 to 20,000 Hz, which corresponds to the lower and upper limits of human hearing. Audio signals may be synthesized directly, or may originate at a transducer such as a microphone, musical instrument pickup, phonograph cartridge, or tape head.
Informationvignette|redresse=0.6|Pictogramme représentant une information. L’information est un de la discipline des sciences de l'information et de la communication (SIC). Au sens étymologique, l'« information » est ce qui donne une forme à l'esprit. Elle vient du verbe latin « informare », qui signifie « donner forme à » ou « se former une idée de ». L'information désigne à la fois le message à communiquer et les symboles utilisés pour l'écrire. Elle utilise un code de signes porteurs de sens tels qu'un alphabet de lettres, une base de chiffres, des idéogrammes ou pictogrammes.
Intégration sensorielleL’intégration sensorielle fait référence à plusieurs concepts différents. En neurophysiologie, l’intégration sensorielle se réfère au processus neurologique impliquant la réception, la modulation et l’intégration des informations sensorielles. Le système nerveux transforme les sensations en perceptions en organisant les informations sensorielles provenant du corps et de l’environnement (fournies par les différents systèmes sensoriels : tactile, auditif, visuel, gustatif/olfactif, vestibulaire, proprioceptif) afin d’utiliser efficacement le corps.
Signal separationSource separation, blind signal separation (BSS) or blind source separation, is the separation of a set of source signals from a set of mixed signals, without the aid of information (or with very little information) about the source signals or the mixing process. It is most commonly applied in digital signal processing and involves the analysis of mixtures of signals; the objective is to recover the original component signals from a mixture signal.
