Gravitational-Wave Burst Signals Denoising Based on the Adaptive Modification of Intersection of Confidence Intervals Rule
Gravitational-wave data (discovered first in 2015 by the Advanced LIGO interferometers and awarded by the Nobel prize in 2017) is characterized by non-Gaussian and non- stationary noise. An ever- increasing amount of the acquired data requires the development of efficient denoising algorithms that will enable the detection of gravitational- wave events embedded in low signal-to-noise-ratio […]
Estimating River Discharges in Highly Stratified Estuaries
Estuaries are transitional areas between river and marine environments. Understanding the estuarine dynamics is important for various water management issues, such as predicting floods and droughts, assessing impacts of sea level rise, planning freshwater intake for irrigation, and managing sediment transport. One of the key requirements for understanding and predicting the estuarine dynamics is to […]
Deep Learning for Feature Extraction in Remote Sensing: A Case-Study of Aerial Scene Classification
Scene classification relying on images is essential in many systems and applications related to remote sensing. The scientific interest in scene classification from remotely collected images is increasing, and many datasets and algorithms are being developed. The introduction of convolutional neural networks (CNN) and other deep learning techniques contributed to vast improvements in the accuracy […]
Comparison of Entropy and Dictionary Based Text Compression in English, German, French, Italian, Czech, Hungarian, Finnish, and Croatian
The rapid growth in the amount of data in the digital world leads to the need for data compression, and so forth, reducing the number of bits needed to represent a text file, an image, audio, or video content. Compressing data saves storage capacity and speeds up data transmission. In this paper, we focus on […]

A Novel Approach to Extracting Useful Information From Noisy TFDs Using 2D Local Entropy Measures
The paper proposes a novel approach for extraction of useful information and blind source separation of signal components from noisy data in the time-frequency domain. The method is based on the local Rényi entropy calculated inside adaptive, data-driven 2D regions, the sizes of which are calculated utilizing the improved, relative intersection of confidence intervals (RICI) […]
Improving the Performance of Dynamic Ship Positioning Systems: A Review of Filtering and Estimation Techniques
Various operations at sea, such as maintaining a constant ship position and direction, require a complex control system. Under such conditions, the ship needs an efficient positioning technique. Dynamic positioning (DP) systems provide such an application with a combination of the actuators mechanism, analyses of crucial ship variables, and environmental conditions. The natural forces of […]
Improved Power System State Estimator With Preprocessing Based on the Modified Intersection of Confidence Intervals
The paper proposes a power system state estimator upgraded by the improved relative intersection of confidence intervals (RICI) algorithm combined with the local polynomial approximation (LPA). In the proposed approach, a novel LPA-RICI denoising technique is utilized to preprocess the input measurements. The accuracy of the adaptive, data-driven LPA-RICI based state estimator was tested on […]
Adaptive Filtering and Analysis of EEG Signals in the Time-Frequency Domain Based on the Local Entropy
The brain dynamics in the electroencephalogram (EEG) data are often challenging to interpret, specially when the signal is a combination of desired brain dynamics and noise. Thus, in an EEG signal, anything other than the desired electrical activity, which is produced due to coordinated electrochemical process, can be considered as unwanted or noise. To make […]
