This paper first proposes a novel image separation method based on the hyperanalytic shearlet. By combining the advantages of both the hyperanalytic wavelet transform and the shear operation, hyperanalytic shearlet is easy to implement and also has a low redundancy. By using such transform and the orthonormal wavelet, a new geometric separation dictionary is obtained which can sparsely represen...

Despite the growing growth of technology, handwritten signature has been selected as the first option between biometrics by users. In this paper, a new methodology for offline handwritten signature verification and recognition based on the Shearlet transform and transfer learning is proposed. Since, a large percentage of handwritten signatures are composed of curves and the performance of a sig...

Shearlets emerged in recent years in applied harmonic analysis as a general framework to provide sparse representations of multidimensional data. This construction was motivated by the need to provide more efficient algorithms for data analysis and processing, overcoming the limitations of traditional multiscale methods. Particularly, shearlets have proved to be very effective in handling direc...

It is a challenging task to reconstruct images from their noisy, blurry, and/or incomplete measurements, especially those with important details and features such as medical magnetic resonance (MR) and CT images. We propose a novel regularization model that integrates two recently developed regularization tools: total generalized variation (TGV) by Bredies, Kunisch, and Pock; and shearlet trans...
