Application of Compressive Sensing to Ultrasound Images: A Review.

Compressive sensing (CS) offers compression of data below the Nyquist rate, making it an attractive solution in the field of medical imaging, and has been extensively used for ultrasound (US) compression and sparse recovery. In practice, CS offers a reduction in data sensing, transmission, and storage. Compressive sensing relies on the sparsity of data; i.

Improved Reconstruction of MR Scanned Images by Using a Dictionary Learning Scheme.

The application of compressed sensing (CS) to biomedical imaging is sensational since it permits a rationally accurate reconstruction of images by exploiting the image sparsity. The quality of CS reconstruction methods largely depends on the use of various sparsifying transforms, such as wavelets, curvelets or total variation (TV), to recover MR images. As per recently developed mathematical concepts of CS, the biomedical images with sparse representation can be recovered from randomly undersampled data, provided that an appropriate nonlinear recovery method is used.

History based forward and feedback mechanism in cooperative spectrum sensing including malicious users in cognitive radio network.

In cognitive radio communication, spectrum sensing plays a vital role in sensing the existence of the primary user (PU). The sensing performance is badly affected by fading and shadowing in case of single secondary user(SU). To overcome this issue, cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) is proposed.

In this paper, a new heuristic scheme for the approximate solution of the generalized Burgers'-Fisher equation is proposed. The scheme is based on the hybridization of Exp-function method with nature inspired algorithm. The given nonlinear partial differential equation (NPDE) through substitution is converted into a nonlinear ordinary differential equation (NODE).

A novel modulation classification approach using Gabor filter network.

A Gabor filter network based approach is used for feature extraction and classification of digital modulated signals by adaptively tuning the parameters of Gabor filter network. Modulation classification of digitally modulated signals is done under the influence of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). The modulations considered for the classification purpose are PSK 2 to 64, FSK 2 to 64, and QAM 4 to 64.

Performance analysis of relay subset selection for amplify-and-forward cognitive relay networks.

Cooperative communication is regarded as a key technology in wireless networks, including cognitive radio networks (CRNs), which increases the diversity order of the signal to combat the unfavorable effects of the fading channels, by allowing distributed terminals to collaborate through sophisticated signal processing. Underlay CRNs have strict interference constraints towards the secondary users (SUs) active in the frequency band of the primary users (PUs), which limits their transmit power and their coverage area. Relay selection offers a potential solution to the challenges faced by underlay networks, by selecting either single best relay or a subset of potential relay set under different design requirements and assumptions.

5D parameter estimation of near-field sources using hybrid evolutionary computational techniques.

Hybrid evolutionary computational technique is developed to jointly estimate the amplitude, frequency, range, and 2D direction of arrival (elevation and azimuth angles) of near-field sources impinging on centrosymmetric cross array. Specifically, genetic algorithm is used as a global optimizer, whereas pattern search and interior point algorithms are employed as rapid local search optimizers. For this, a new multiobjective fitness function is constructed, which is the combination of mean square error and correlation between the normalized desired and estimated vectors.
