### How to classify accelerometer data?

I am trying to detect if a car did accelerate or did brake by using the accelerometer of the iPhone. In the figure below I plotted the collected data. (To collect the data the phone was laying flat …

### Adaptive Equalizer for IIR channel?

I am quite new to the idea of equalization. I have a few queries regarding the same. In my application I require to equalize a channel whose impulse response is an IIR response. Is it possible to …

### Why does the DFT assume the transformed signal is periodic?

In many signal processing books, it is claimed that the DFT assumes the transformed signal to be periodic (and that this is the reason why spectral leakage for example may occur). Now, if you look at …

### The small red peak in the CIE standard observer

The human eye has 3 types of color cones: red, green and blue. Their spectral sensitivity peaks in short (S, 420–440 nm), middle (M, 530–540 nm), and long (L, 560–580 nm) wavelengths. See diagram …

$X$ represents sample in frequency domain and $x$ represents samples in time domain. NOTATION 1 $X[k] = \sum\limits_{n=0}^{N-1} x[n] \ e^{-j \frac{2\pi}{N} n k}$ $x[n] = \frac{1}{N} … dft  asked by Vineel Veludandi 2 votes  answered by Matt L. 2 votes ### How to detect whether the object has triangular shape? The task is to detect arrow from medical images. After segmenting, arrow-like objects can be connected with other connected components (noise). In this context, detecting a part of the object that … image-processing computer-vision  asked by Santosee 2 votes  answered by dhanushka 1 vote ### Why is LBP generaly faster than HAAR? I am digging into Haar like and LBP features. More precisely its implementation in OpenCV. Every article or forum entry I found states, that LBP is faster than Haar. My local tests also confirm this … opencv local-features detection  asked by user10861 2 votes ## Greatest hits from previous weeks: ### Can we break the Shannon capacity? I have a friend working in wireless communications research. He told me that we can transmit more than one symbol in a given slot using one frequency (of course we can decode them at the receiver). … modulation reference-request channelcoding  asked by Learning 7 votes  answered by jan 15 votes ### Difference between correlation and convolution on an image? Could you please clearly explain what is the difference between correlation and convolution that is down by a filter on an image?
