β¦ Synopsis
Ridgelets transform, related to the wavelets and the Radon transform, offers a sound mathematical framework to organize linear information at different scales of resolution. We use this multiresolution property to define a representation scheme at several levels of decomposition to describe images whose relevant information is concentrated around linear singularities. We have also defined a classification procedure that combines information from all levels and is invariant to usual affine transformations. We have applied this scheme to the description and classification of linear graphic symbols, achieving recognition rates over 97% with the GRECΓ03 symbol database, even with degraded and distorted images.

A new method is presented for the pole estimation of linear time invariant (LTI) systems. For a single input case, this method gives estimation of each pole of the system. For a multiple input case, it estimates the repeated system poles with multiplicity equal to the number of inputs. The new metho
