Field plots by contours, iso-surfaces, streamlines, vectors and others are traditional post-processing techniques. While the shock wave, as one important and critical flow structure in many aerodynamic problems, can hardly be detected or distinguished in a direct way using these traditional methods, due to possible confusions with other similar discontinuous flow structures like slip line, contact discontinuity, etc. Therefore, method for automatic detection of shock wave in post-processing is of great importance for both academic research and engineering applications. In this paper, the current status of methodologies developed for shock wave detection and implementations in post-processing platform are reviewed, as well as discussions on advantages and limitations of the existing methods and proposals for further studies of shock wave detection method. We also develop an advanced post-processing software, with improved shock detection.展开更多

The use of traditional sensors (e.g. inductive loops, AVI sensors) or more recent Bluetooth sensors installed on major roads for collecting data is not sufficient because of their limited coverage and expensive costs for installation and maintenance. Application of the Global Positioning Systems (GPS) in travel time and delay data collections is proven to be efficient in terms of accuracy, level of details for the data and required data collection of man-power. While data collection automation is improved by the GPS technique, human errors can easily find their way through the post-processing phase, and therefore data post-processing remains a challenge especially in case of big projects with high amount of data. This paper introduces a stand-alone post-processing tool called GPS Calculator, which provides an easy-to-use environment to carry out data post-processing. This is a Visual Basic application that processes the data files obtained in the field and integrates them into Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for analysis and representation. The results show that this tool obtains similar results to the currently used data post-processing method, reduces the post-processing effort, and also eliminates the need for the second person during the data collection.展开更多

Firstly, we propose a new method to effectively order and select the perceptually most important sinusoids. The sinusoid which contributes most to the reduction of overall NMR is chosen. Combined with our improved parametric psychoacoustic model and advanced peak riddling techniques, the number of sinusoids required can be greatly reduced and the coding efficiency can be greatly enhanced. A lightweight version is also given to reduce the amount of computation with only little sacrifice of performance. Secondly, we propose two enhancement techniques for sinusoid synthesis: bandwidth enhancement and line enhancement. With little overhead, the effective bandwidth can be extended one more octave; the timbre tends to sound much brighter, thicker and more beautiful.展开更多

文摘目前市面上HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding)实时编码器要求能够实现在500 MHz时钟的情况下,完成4k 30 fps(Frames Per Second)及以下图像的实时编码。由于HEVC帧内预测模式有35种,并且预测单元PU(Prediction Unit)分为4×4、8×8、16×16、32×32、64×64这么多层,对于实时编码是一个很大的挑战,因此需要进行帧内预测模式的初步选择,减少RDO(Rate distortion optimization)中帧内模式的数量,降低硬件开销和满足实时性。本文提供一种HEVC帧内预测模式提前判决装置PRE_INTRA(Previous Intra Prediction),使用原始数据替代重构数据,从帧内35种预测模式中,使用SAD(Sum of Absolute Differences)算法的方式选择出亮度6种模式,色度一种模式,供RDO判决模块进行选择。实验结果表明:提出的算法与HM已有快速算法相比,PSNR(Peak signal-to-noise ratio)平均下降0.02 dB,输出码率平均增加0.22%,但是可以满足HEVC实施编码器性能要求。
文摘隐写术是信息安全领域的一个热门研究方向。由于视频媒体的广泛使用,视频隐写术受到了研究领域的广泛关注。在视频隐写术中,HEVC编码视频中的基于预测单元划分模式(Prediction Unit Partition Mode,简称PUPM)的视频隐写术以其更高的视觉质量成为研究人员关注的热点之一。本文主要研究了基于PUPM的视频隐写术。首先,讨论了基于PUPM的隐写术的基本原理和评价标准。其次,根据不同的技术特点,将基于PUPM域的隐写分为三类:传统的PUPM隐写、基于编码的PUPM隐写和基于最小化嵌入失真框架的自适应PUPM隐写。说明了上述代表性方法的优缺点。最后,提出了基于多因素的失真函数设计、基于深度学习的PUPM隐写以及将基于PUPM的隐写从实验室应用到现实世界等三个未来的研究方向。
文摘随着高清和超高清直播需求的增长,传统编码技术在压缩效率和传输质量方面逐渐显现出局限性。针对这一问题,提出基于高效视频编码(High Efficiency Video Coding,HEVC)技术的优化策略,以期改善直播电视信号的压缩效率、传输延迟及画质清晰度。实验结果表明,HEVC技术结合快速用户数据报协议互联网连接(Quick User Datagram Protocol Internet Connections,QUIC)协议和硬件加速技术,可显著提高高分辨率场景下的信号稳定性和实时性。
文摘HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding)是ISO/IEC和ITU-T联合制定的最新的视频编码标准,该文提出了一种基于运动矢量空间编码的HEVC信息隐藏方法.文中首先给出了运动矢量空间的构建及编码方法,并定义了运动矢量集合与该空间中点的映射关系;其后,给出了通过修改运动矢量集合映射值进行信息隐藏的方法.文中的方法实现了在N个运动矢量分量中最多改变一个分量即可嵌入一个2 N+1进制数的效果,具有较高的嵌入效率.此外,文中的方法仅选择CTU(Coding Tree Unit)中尺寸最小的N/2个PU(Prediction Unit)的运动矢量作为嵌入载体,使得隐写所引入的视频附加失真进一步减小并提升了隐写的透明性.最后,通过实验证实了该文的方法可行且具有优良的性能,具有良好的应用前景;而且,该文通过构造虚拟空间进行信息隐藏,给出了一种提升视频信息隐藏算法嵌入效率的新途径.
