Color Image Noise Reduction using Perceptual Maximum Variation Modeling for Color Diffusion
نویسندگان
چکیده
Diffusion is an efficient localized image regularization method based on the analysis of image structures such as direction and magnitude. However, the localization at weak features which have small brightness variations is fundamentally difficult. This often results in removal of weak features. We address this problem with perceptual maximum variation modeling. In our method, diffusion flow of color images is performed by evaluating the perceptual maximum variations which combine the small differences in both brightness and chromaticity, using a least squares optimization with principal component analysis (PCA). A consistency constraint is employed to avoid influence from global color distributions and to enhance homogeneous color regions. We apply our approach for de-noising of color images and obtain excellent improvements over existing methods.

Hue fields and Color Curvatures: A Perceptual Organization Approach to Color Image Denoising
The denoising of color images is an increasingly studied problem whose state-of-the-art solutions employ a variety of diffusion schemes. Specifying the correct diffusion is difficult, however, in part because of the subtleties of color interactions. We address this difficulty by proposing a perceptual organization approach to color denoising based on the principle of good continuation. We explo...
متن کاملEdge-preserving color image denoising through tensor voting
This paper presents a new method for edge-preserving color image denoising based on the tensor voting framework, a robust perceptual grouping technique used to extract salient information from noisy data. The tensor voting framework is adapted to encode color information through tensors in order to propagate them in a neighborhood by using a specific voting process. This voting process is speci...

In this paper the perceptual quality and robustness in LWT domain and DWT domain is evaluated for the gray-scale image. The proposed technique is based on Lifting Wavelet Transform and Discrete Wavelet Transform (LWT-SVD) domain for embedding the gray-scale image to the color host image. Fibonacci-Lucas Transform is used to scramble the watermark image for security reason. YUV, YIQ and YCbCr co...
متن کاملInk Relocation for Color Halftones
color halftoning, halftone noise reduction, color saturation Current methodologies for color image halftoning produce prominent halftoning noise. In this paper we argue that brightness variation between color dots placed at neighboring locations is a major cause of color halftone noise. To correct this flaw we propose Ink Relocation, a postprocess to arbitrary color halftoning algorithms. The p...
متن کاملDynamic Color Texture Modeling and Color Video Decomposition Using Bounded Variation and Oscillatory Functions
Dynamic, or temporal, texture is a spatially repetitive, timevarying visual pattern that forms an image sequence with a certain temporal stationarity. Important tasks are thus the detection, segmentation and perceptual characterization of Dynamic Texture (DT). Following recent work, color image decomposition appears as a good way to reach these different aims, however, to our best knowledge, no...
