Abstract:
Rate Distortion analysis is a branch of information theory that predicts the tradeoffs between rate and distortion in source coding. In this thesis, we present the rate distortion analysis for conditional motion estimation, a process that estimates motion based on a criterion that affects coding rate, complexity of coding scheme and quality of the reconstructed video. In order to guide the rate distortion analysis, we use a conditional motion estimation scheme that estimates motion for certain blocks selected based on significant changes. We begin by explaining the conditional motion estimatio

Inlet distortion research has become increasingly important over the past several years as demands for aircraft flight efficiency and performance has increased. To accommodate these demands, research progression has shifted the emphasis onto airframe-engine integration and improved understanding of engine operability in less than ideal conditions. Swirl distortion, which is considered a type of non-uniform inflow inlet distortion, is characterized by the presence of swirling flow in an inlet.

Animal home range estimations are important for conservation planning and protecting the habitat of threatened species. The accuracy of home range calculations is influenced by the map projection chosen in a geographic information system (GIS) for data analysis. Different methods of projection will distort spatial data in different ways, so it is important to choose a projection that meets the needs of the research. The large number of projections in use today and the lack of distortion comparison between the various types make selecting the most appropriate projection a difficult decision. Th

碩士<br>國立海洋大學<br>電機工程學系<br>85<br>The loudspeaker in a sound system has much to do with the quality of speech or music signals replayed by the system. However, it is also the weakest link of the overall sound system. This is due to the fact that nonlinear phenomena may exist in the electronic circuit, mechanical structure, and material design of a loudspeaker. This causes the loudspeaker to generate harmonic and intermodulation distortions which degrade the performance

碩士<br>國立雲林科技大學<br>電子與光電工程研究所碩士班<br>100<br>In this work, we propose a methodology to estimate Total-Harmonic-Distortion (THD) in time domain. Instead of using Fast-Fourier-Transform (FFT), we express the signal under test into Taylor expansion and derive the relationship between coefficients of Taylor series and composition of harmonic. Furthermore, through analyzing syndromes on signal under test with respect to coefficients of Taylor series and extracting effective information, we calculate these coefficients and translate into harmonic distortion by Parseval’s theorem.

Abstract:
Majority of the rain producing monsoon systems in India form or intensify over the Bay of Bengal and move onto the land. We expect the air-sea interaction to be a crucial factor in the frequent genesis and intensification of monsoon systems over the Bay. Knowledge of air-sea fluxes is essential in determining the air-sea interactions. However, the Bay remains a poorly monitored ocean basin and the state of the near surface conditions during the monsoon months remains to be studied in detail. For example, we do not know yet which among the various flux formulae used in the General circulation m

Abstract:
Section to section alignment is a preliminary step to the creation of three dimensional reconstructions from serial section electron micrographs. Typically, the micrograph of one section is aligned to its neighbors by analyzing a set of fiducial points to calculate an appropriate polynomial transform. This transform is then used to map all of the pixels of the micrograph into alignment. Such transforms are usually linear or piecewise linear in order to limit the accumulation of small errors, which may occur with the use of higher–order approximations. Linear alignment is unable to correct comm
