چکیده

In this paper we propose a simple Bayesian block wavelet shrinkage method for estimating an unknown function in the presence of Gaussian noise. A data–driven procedure which can adaptively choose the block size and the shrinkage level at each resolution level is provided. The asymptotic property of the proposed method, BBN (Bayesian BlockNorm shrinkage), is investigated in the Besov sequence space. The numerical performance and comparisons with some of existing wavelet block denoising methods show that the new method can achieve good performance but with the least computational time.

Empirical Bayes approach to block wavelet function estimation

Wavelet methods have demonstrated considerable success in function estimation through term-by-term thresholding of the empirical wavelet coefficients. However, it has been shown that grouping the empirical wavelet coefficients into blocks and making simultaneous threshold decisions about all the coefficients in each block has a number of advantages over term-by-term wavelet thresholding, includ...

Parametric Empirical Bayes Test and Its Application to Selection of Wavelet Threshold

In this article, we propose a new method for selecting level dependent threshold in wavelet shrinkage using the empirical Bayes framework. We employ both Bayesian and frequentist testing hypothesis instead of point estimation method. The best test yields the best prior and hence the more appropriate wavelet thresholds. The standard model functions are used to illustrate the performance of the p...

Wavelet Estimation of a Baseline Signal From Repeated Noisy Measurements by Vertical Block Shrinkage

In this paper a new wavelet shrinkage technique is proposed and investigated. When data consist of a multiplicity of related noisy signals, we propose a wavelet-based shrinkage estimation procedure to summarize all data components into a single regularized and representative signal (\base-line"). This fusion of information from di erent runs is done via Stein-type shrinkage rule resulting from ...

Wavelet-based image estimation: an empirical Bayes approach using Jeffrey's noninformative prior

The sparseness and decorrelation properties of the discrete wavelet transform have been exploited to develop powerful denoising methods. However, most of these methods have free parameters which have to be adjusted or estimated. In this paper, we propose a wavelet-based denoising technique without any free parameters; it is, in this sense, a "universal" method. Our approach uses empirical Bayes...

Wavelet Bayesian Block Shrinkage via Mixtures of Normal-Inverse Gamma Priors

In this paper we propose a block shrinkage method in the wavelet domain for estimating an unknown function in the presence of Gaussian noise. This shrinkage utilizes an empirical Bayes, block-adaptive approach that accounts for the sparseness of the representation of the unknown function. The modeling is accomplished by using a mixture of two normal-inverse gamma distributions as a joint prior ...
