Denoising 3D Medical Images Using a Second Order Variational Model and Wavelet Shrinkage
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this paper is to construct a model which decomposes a 3D image into two components: the first one containing the geometrical structure of the image, the second one containing the noise. The proposed method is based on a second order variational model and an undecimated wavelet thresholding operator. The numerical implementation is described, and some experiments for denoising a 3D MRI image are successfully performed. Future prospects are finally exposed.

Solving Variational Problems in Image Processing via Projections A Common View on TV Denoising and Wavelet Shrinkage
Variational methods are very common in image processing. They are used for denoising, deblurring, segmentation or inpainting. In this short paper we review a method for the solution of a special class of variational problems, presented in [2]. We show applications to TV denoising and new applications to total variation deblurring, wavelet shrinkage and texture extraction. Moreover this approach...
متن کاملStatistical 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...
متن کاملBivariate shrinkage functions for wavelet-based denoising exploiting interscale dependency
Most simple nonlinear thresholding rules for wavelet-based denoising assume that the wavelet coefficients are independent. However, wavelet coefficients of natural images have significant dependencies. In this paper, we will only consider the dependencies between the coefficients and their parents in detail. For this purpose, new non-Gaussian bivariate distributions are proposed, and correspond...
متن کاملAdaptive Bayesian Shrinkage Model for Spherical Wavelet Based Denoising and Compression of Hippocampus Shapes
This paper presents a novel wavelet-based denoising and compression statistical model for 3D hippocampus shapes. Shapes are encoded using spherical wavelets and the objective is to remove noisy coefficients while keeping significant shape information. To do so, we develop a non-linear wavelet shrinkage model based on a data-driven Bayesian framework. We threshold wavelet coefficients by locally...
متن کاملVariational Denoising in Besov Spaces and Interpolation of Hard and Soft Wavelet Shrinkage
The relation of soft wavelet shrinkage (Donohoshrinkage) and variational denoising was discovered by Chambolle, Lucier et al. [3, 4]. Here we present an outline of this relation and give a non-convex generalization which will be related to hard wavelet shrinkage. This approach will lead to a “natural” interpolation between soft and hard shrinkage. AMS Subject Classification: 65K10, 42C40
