Stable Image Enhancement by Approximated Forward- and-Backward Wave Equation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The recently-proposed family of Forward-andBackward (FAB) Telegraph-Diffusion (TeD) equations [9] is analyzed in the context of image enhancement. Stability of such schemes in terms of energy convergence is investigated. An approximated version of the enhancement operator that offers an increased stability is proposed and examined. This scheme is implemented in both stable and unstable regimes of the original FAB-TeD operator and shown to yield similar results to those obtained by the latter, without losing stability. The theoretical conclusions regarding stability of the approximated FAB-TeD are reinforced by simulations, exhibiting enhanced images with sharpened edges and yet very limited compromise on the quality of other image details.

متن کاملForward-and-backward diffusion processes for adaptive image enhancement and denoising
Signal and image enhancement is considered in the context of a new type of diffusion process that simultaneously enhances, sharpens, and denoises images. The nonlinear diffusion coefficient is locally adjusted according to image features such as edges, textures, and moments. As such, it can switch the diffusion process from a forward to a backward (inverse) mode according to a given set of crit...

متن کاملOn the Combined Forward and Backward Anisotropic Diffusion Scheme for the Multispectral Image Enhancement
In this paper a new approach to the problem of edge preserving smoothing is proposed and evaluated. The new algorithm is based on the combined forward and backward anisotropic diffusion with incorporated time dependent cooling process. This method is able to efficiently remove image noise while preserving and enhancing image edges, lines and corners. The new method has been applied for the deno...
متن کاملImage Enhancement and Denoising by Forward-and-Backward Fourth Order Partial Differential Equations
In this paper, a forward and backward (FB) fourth order PDEs is presented to denosing and enhancement image simultaneously. The new FB fourth order PDEs preserves the advantage of YK model and avoids leaving isolated black and white speckles. Moreover, the new model preserves fine details, sharp corners, curved structures and thin lines. Experiment results show the effectiveness of the proposed...
