SAR images have been widely used in many fields such as military and remote sensing. So the suppression of the speckle has been an important research issues. To improve the visual effect of non-local means, generalized non-local (GNL) means with optimized pixel-wise weighting is applied to shrink the coefficients of non-subsample Shearlet transform (NSST) of SAR image. The new method can optimi...

Since shearlets provide nearly optimally sparse representations for a large class of functions that are useful to model natural images, many image processing methods benefit from their use. In particular, the error rates of data estimation from noise are highly dependent on the sparsity properties of the representation, so that many successful applications of shearlets center around restoration...

ultrasound images suffer of multiplicative noise named speckle. different de-speckling algorithms run either in spatial domain or in transformed domain. in this paper, an adaptive filter in spatial domain according to assume the nakagami distribution as the statistic of log-compressed ultrasound images is used. for de-speckling in transformed domain, the non-sub sampled shearlet transform is us...
