The 2-D pyramidal image decomposition has been widely used in various image processing applications [6]. In this paper, we introduce filter bank implementations of a nonlinear multiresolution image representation based on local contrast measure. Following the work of Duval-Destin [3, 1] for visual contrast sensitivity, we define multiscale contrast coefficients by scaling the wavelet transform ...

In the context of specific user (surgery or handicap domain), the list of requirements is especially difficult to establish. We propose to reflect on the design methodology and especially on the Scenario & Emulation application. The aim is to make emerge needs in users who have specific relation to the final product. In this paper, we illustrate the research with two projects: the DESTIN Projec...
