MEHRDIMENSIONALE SIGNALVERARBEITUNG UND -ANZEIGE

摘要

A multi-dimensional acoustic, data processing and display system arranges acoustic data in a three-dimensional matrix. The three-dimensional matrix is compressed using singular value decomposition into singular vectors and singular values. A historical database is created and maintained and is also concatenated with the three-dimensional data. This database allows reverberation and noise to be diminished and other, weaker features in the data to be enhanced. Once the data is compressed, the data can be analyzed efficiently. The singular vectors are partitioned into one or more groups on the basis of their singular values or other criteria. Certain of the compressed data elements are enhanced or diminished by modifying the singular values within each of the groups of singular vectors. Selected singular vectors are processed further by other techniques for further enhancement, detection, isolation, feature extraction and classification. The compressed and enhanced data is then expanded back into three-dimensional form for display or for other processing.
