Making a “Completely Blind” Image Quality Analyzer

A. Mittal, Rajiv Soundararajan, Alan C. Bovik · 14 Nov 2012

An important aim of research on the blind image quality assessment (IQA) problem is to devise perceptual models that can predict the quality of distorted images with as little prior knowledge of the images or their distortions as possible. Current state-of-the-art “general purpose” no reference (NR) IQA algorithms require knowledge about anticipated distortions in the…

A universal image quality index

Zhou Wang, Alan C. Bovik · 1 Mar 2002

We propose a new universal objective image quality index, which is easy to calculate and applicable to various image processing applications. Instead of using traditional error summation methods, the proposed index is designed by modeling any image distortion as a combination of three factors: loss of correlation, luminance distortion, and contrast distortion. Although the new…

Joint Face Detection and Alignment Using Multitask Cascaded Convolutional Networks

Kaipeng Zhang, Zhanpeng Zhang, Zhifeng Li et al. · 26 Aug 2016

Face detection and alignment in unconstrained environment are challenging due to various poses, illuminations, and occlusions. Recent studies show that deep learning approaches can achieve impressive performance on these two tasks. In this letter, we propose a deep cascaded multitask framework that exploits the inherent correlation between detection and alignment to boost up their performance.…

Empirical Mode Decomposition as a Filter Bank

Patrick Flandrin, Gabriel Rilling, Paulo Gonçalvès · 1 Feb 2004

Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) has recently been pioneered by Huang et al. for adaptively representing nonstationary signals as sums of zero-mean amplitude modulation frequency modulation components. In order to better understand the way EMD behaves in stochastic situations involving broadband noise, we report here on numerical experiments based on fractional Gaussian noise. In such a…

On the Performance of Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access in 5G Systems with Randomly Deployed Users

Zhiguo Ding, Zheng Yang, Pingzhi Fan et al. · 5 Aug 2014

The performance of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is investigated in a cellular downlink scenario with randomly deployed users. The developed analytical results show that NOMA can achieve superior performance in terms of ergodic sum rates; however, the outage performance of NOMA depends critically on the choices of the users' targeted data rates and allocated power.…

IEEE Signal Processing Letters template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the IEEE Signal Processing Letters format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the IEEE Signal Processing Letters template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IEEE format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does IEEE Signal Processing Letters use?
IEEE Signal Processing Letters uses Numbered (IEEE) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, "A representative article title," IEEE Signal Processing Letters, vol. 12, no. 3, pp. 45–58, 2023.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to IEEE Signal Processing Letters?
No. DocuGuru generates the IEEEtran LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IEEE-ready IEEE Signal Processing Letters document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the IEEE Signal Processing Letters template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the IEEE Signal Processing Letters format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is IEEE Signal Processing Letters?
IEEE Signal Processing Letters, published by IEEE. It is a engineering and computer science journal, published by IEEE.
Can I export a submission-ready IEEE Signal Processing Letters PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official IEEE Signal Processing Letters template (the IEEEtran class) that is ready to submit to IEEE, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the IEEE Signal Processing Letters template cost?
You can start writing in the IEEE Signal Processing Letters template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready IEEE Signal Processing Letters PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
