Modeling the Joint Statistics of Images in the Wavelet Domain
نویسنده
چکیده
I describe a statistical model for natural photographic images, when decomposed in a multi-scale wavelet basis. In particular, I examine both the marginal and pairwise joint histograms of wavelet coefficients at adjacent spatial locations, orientations, and spatial scales. Although the histograms are highly non-Gaussian, they are nevertheless well described using fairly simple parameterized density models.

Second-Order Statistical Texture Representation of Asphalt Pavement Distress Images Based on Local Binary Pattern in Spatial and Wavelet Domain
Assessment of pavement distresses is one of the important parts of pavement management systems to adopt the most effective road maintenance strategy. In the last decade, extensive studies have been done to develop automated systems for pavement distress processing based on machine vision techniques. One of the most important structural components of computer vision is the feature extraction met...
متن کاملSpeckle Reduction in Synthetic Aperture Radar Images in Wavelet Domain Using Laplace Distribution
Speckle is a granular noise-like phenomenon which appears in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images due to coherent properties of SAR systems. The presence of speckle complicates both human and automatic analysis of SAR images. As a result, speckle reduction is an important preprocessing step for many SAR remote sensing applications. Speckle reduction can be made through multi-looking during the...
متن کاملSpeckle Reduction in Synthetic Aperture Radar Images in Wavelet Domain Exploiting Intra-scale and Inter-scale Dependencies
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images are inherently affected by a multiplicative noise-like phenomenon called speckle, which is indeed the nature of all coherent systems. Speckle decreases the performance of almost all the information extraction methods such as classification, segmentation, and change detection, therefore speckle must be suppressed. Despeckling can be applied by the multilooki...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Hierarchical Method Based on Wavelet and Adaptive Filtering for MRI Denoising
MRI is one of the most powerful techniques to study the internal structure of the body. MRI image quality is affected by various noises. Noises in MRI are usually thermal and mainly due to the motion of charged particles in the coil. Noise in MRI images also cause a limitation in the study of visual images as well as computer analysis of the images. In this paper, first, it is proved that proba...
متن کاملTextures and Wavelet-Domain Joint Statistics
This paper presents an empirical study of the joint wavelet statistics for textures and other random imagery. There is a growing realization that modeling wavelet coefficients as independent, or at best correlated only across scales, assuming independence within a scale, may be a poor assumption. While recent developments in wavelet-domain Hidden Markov Models (notably HMT-3S) account for withi...
