چکیده

The noises introduced during the experimental procedure greatly affect the detection capability of measuring system. In this paper, a new approach to deal with the noise inherent with neutron back scattering, NBS and transmission imaging process is presented. The image noises are eliminated using the Stationary Wavelet Transform, SWT with time invariant characteristic which is particularly useful in image denoising. The test results of SWT on images obtained by NBS and transmission techniques have shown an enhanced images quality. The results also show that SWT has a superior performance than the widely used adaptive Matched Filter Method, MFT.

An Efficient Curvelet Framework for Denoising Images

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...

Dual tree complex wavelet transform based denoising of optical microscopy images

Photon shot noise is the main noise source of optical microscopy images and can be modeled by a Poisson process. Several discrete wavelet transform based methods have been proposed in the literature for denoising images corrupted by Poisson noise. However, the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) has disadvantages such as shift variance, aliasing, and lack of directional selectivity. To overcome th...

Comparative Analysis of Image Denoising Methods Based on Wavelet Transform and Threshold Functions

There are many unavoidable noise interferences in image acquisition and transmission. To make it better for subsequent processing, the noise in the image should be removed in advance. There are many kinds of image noises, mainly including salt and pepper noise and Gaussian noise. This paper focuses on the research of the Gaussian noise removal. It introduces many wavelet threshold denoising alg...

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...

A Wavelet-based Spoofing Error Compensation Technique for Single Frequency GPS Stationary Receiver

Spoofing could pose a major threat to Global Positioning System (GPS) navigation, so the GPS users have to gain an in-depth understanding of GPS spoofing. Since spoofing attack can influence position results, spoof compensation is possible through reducing position deviations. In this paper, a novel processing technique is proposed and the wavelet transform is used to eliminate the impact of sp...
