چکیده

This paper presents adaptive edge detector using a novel directional wavelet transform. The proposed algorithm has two stages: a) directional wavelet transform and b) edge detection on space–scale– directional plane with maximum entropy measure. Preliminary results with synthetic images show that directional wavelet transforms gives excellent results. The proposed method was tested on synthetic images at different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) and visually assessed on medical image. We assessed its reliability, accuracy and robustness using the mean absolute distance (MAD) metrics. Key-Words: Wavelet transform, Directional filter, Edge detection

Edge Detection with Hessian Matrix Property Based on Wavelet Transform

In this paper, we present an edge detection method based on wavelet transform and Hessian matrix of image at each pixel. Many methods which based on wavelet transform, use wavelet transform to approximate the gradient of image and detect edges by searching the modulus maximum of gradient vectors. In our scheme, we use wavelet transform to approximate Hessian matrix of image at each pixel, too. ...

Project White Paper - Contourlet Transforms for Feature Detection

This project will involve the exploration of a directional extension of multidimensional wavelet transforms, called “contourlets”, to perform pattern recognition. First, the general concept of a directional extension vs. a regular multidimensional wavelet transform will be discussed and explain the reasoning behind the directional extension. Then, an objective comparison will be done using samp...

Facial feature extraction using complex dual-tree wavelet transform

In this paper, we propose a novel method for facial feature extraction using the directional multiresolution decomposition offered by the complex wavelet transform. The dual-tree implementation of complex wavelet transform offered by Selesnick is used (DT-DWT(S)) [I.W., Selesnick, R.G. Baraniuk, N.C. Kingsbury, The dual-tree complex wavelet transform, IEEE Signal Processing Magazine, 6, s.l., I...
