INTRODUCTION OF A SYMMETRIC TIGHT WAVELET FRAME TO IMAGE PROCESSING: IMAGE FUSION, IMAGE DENOISING and IMAGE INPAINTING

چکیده
A tight wavelet frame is a natural generation of an orthonormal wavelet if redundancy is introduced into the wavelet system. By allowing redundancy, we gain the necessary flexibility to achieve such properties as symmetry and, more importantly, the short support and high vanishing moments of compactly supported wavelets. In addition, redundancy allows for the approximate shift invariance behavior caused by the dense time-scale plane. We show some applications of symmetric tight wavelet frames (STWFs) for image processing, particularly image fusion, image denoising and image inpainting, and we demonstrate the possibility of using an STWF-based approach for such applications.

Statistical Wavelet-based Image Denoising using Scale Mixture of Normal Distributions with Adaptive Parameter Estimation
Removing noise from images is a challenging problem in digital image processing. This paper presents an image denoising method based on a maximum a posteriori (MAP) density function estimator, which is implemented in the wavelet domain because of its energy compaction property. The performance of the MAP estimator depends on the proposed model for noise-free wavelet coefficients. Thus in the wa...

Wiener filter suppresses noise efficiently. However, it makes the out image blurred. Curvelet preserves the edges of natural images perfectly, but, it produces visual distortion artifacts and fuzzy edges to the restored image, especially in homogeneous regions of images. In this paper, a new image denoising framework based on Curvelet transform and wiener filter is proposed, which can stop nois...

Different from an orthonormal basis, a tight frame is an overcomplete and energy-preserving system with flexibility and redundancy. Many image restoration methods employing tight frames have been developed and studied in the literature. Tight wavelet frames have been proven to be useful in many applications. In this paper we are particularly interested in the image inpainting problem using dire...
