Mammogram Compression Using Super-Resolution
نویسندگان
چکیده
As mammography moves towards completely digital and produces prohibitive amounts of data, compression plays an increasingly important role. Although current lossless compression methods provide very high-quality images, their compression ratios are very low. On the other hand, several lossy compression methods provide very high compression ratios but come with considerable loss of quality. In this work, we describe a novel compression method that consists of downsampling the mammograms before applying the encoding procedure, and applying super-resolution techniques after the decoding procedure to recover the original resolution image. In our experiments, we examine the tradeoffs between compression ratio and image quality using this scheme, and show it provides significant improvements over conventional methods.

Super-Resolution Reconstruction of Compressed Sensing Mammogram based on Contourlet Transform
Calcification detection in mammogram is important in breast cancer diagnosis. A super-resolution reconstruction method is proposed to reconstruct mammogram image from one single low resolution mammogram based on the compressed sensing by the contourlet transform. The initial estimation of the super-resolution mammogram is obtained by the interpolation method of the low resolution mammogram reco...

متن کاملAn Efficient Super Resolution Technique for Loss Less Compressed Bayer Colour Filter Array Images
In digital cameras, Bayer color filter array(CFA) images are captured and demosaicing is carried out before compression. Recently, it was found that compression-first schemes outperform the conventional demosaicing-first schemes in terms of output image quality. An efficient prediction-based lossless compression and super-resolution schemes are proposed in this paper. Compressed image is coded ...
متن کاملSuper-resolution of Defocus Blurred Images
Super-resolution is a process that combines information from some low-resolution images in order to produce an image with higher resolution. In most of the previous related work, the blurriness that is associated with low resolution images is assumed to be due to the integral effect of the acquisition device’s image sensor. However, in practice there are other sources of blurriness as well, inc...
