  • Sensor fusion based state estimation for localization of autonomous vehicle
    Subrahmanya Gunaga, Nalini C Iyer, and Akash Kulkarni

    ACM
    Localization is an estimate of vehicle position for a given environment. This work focuses on the state estimation of a vehicle for localization functionality using the Schmidt Kalman filter for fused sensor data. The Kalman filter provides an efficient approach in reducing the errors presented by the sensors. Further, computational complexity is reduced through pre-processed initialization in the Schmidt Kalman filter. The two sensors used are GPS (Global Positioning System) and IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit), where GPS provides the position, and IMU provides acceleration/direction. Since GPS data has a dependency on the external environmental factors resulting in discontinuities, it is augmented with similar data until the corrected GPS data is resumed. The error in the position determined by GPS can be as high as 12m. This work presents a method for fusing sensor data using the Schmidt Kalman filter in a practical scenario.

  • Proposed testing infrastructure for automation of the GPU chip validation: Leading to painless driver development
    Akash Kulkarni

    IEEE
    Graphics Processing Units (GPU)s have become an integral part for high-end applications. The paper proposes a solution to leverage the GPU driver developer to identify regressions when upgrading driver features and an automatic testing infrastructure to identify compatibility problems.

  • Effect of color spaces on image compression using hybrid wavelet transform generated with varying proportions of constituent transforms
    S.D. Thepade, J.H. Dewan, and A.A. Kulkarni

    Institution of Engineering and Technology
    Today, enormous amount of multimedia data is generated, transmitted and stored on the internet which has opened new research dimensions for computing field. In recent work, hybrid wavelet transforms (HWT) generated with various constituent transforms is proven to be better than individual orthogonal transforms [7]. Later work as proved that HWT generated with varying proportions of constituent transforms gives better compression quality as compared to equal proportions of constituent orthogonal transforms in HWT depending upon the compression ratio [1, 2]. Here the appraise of the effect of color spaces on image compression using HWT generated with varying proportions of constituent transforms and constituent transforms is presented. The experimentation is done on the test bed having 15 images of varied sizes and eight compression ratios (60% to 95%). The results show that for higher compression ratio of 95%, the LUV color space gives better compression quality as compared to other considered color spaces with HWT generated with 4:1 proportion of Cosine- Sine constituent transforms. For 65% to 90% compression ratios, HWT generated from 1:1 proportion of Cosine-Kekre constituent transform with RGB color space gives less average mean square error (MSE). For lower compression ratio of 60%, HWT generated with 1:4 proportion of Cosine-Kekre constituent transform gives better image compression quality with RGB color space.
