Relationship between entropy and SNR changes in image enhancement
نویسندگان
چکیده
There are many techniques of image enhancement. Their parameters are traditionally tuned by maximization of SNR criterion, which is unfortunately based on the knowledge of an ideal image. Our approach is based on Hartley entropy, its estimation, and differentiation. Resulting gradient of entropy is estimated without knowledge of ideal images, and it is a subject of minimization. Both SNR maximization and gradient magnitude minimization cause various settings of the given filter. The optimum settings are compared, and their differences are discussed.

Determination of the optimum filter for qualitative and quantitative 99mTc myocardial SPECT imaging
Background: Butterworth, Gaussian, Hamming, Hanning, and Parzen are commonly used SPECT filters during filtered back-projection (FBP) reconstruction, which greatly affect the quality and size accuracy of image. Materials and Methods: This study involved a cardiac phantom in which 1.10 cm thick cold defect was inserted into its myocardium wall and filled with 4.0 μCi/ml (0.148 MBq/ml) 99mTc conc...
متن کاملEvolutionary Image Enhancement Using Multi- Objective Genetic Algorithm
Image Processing is the art of examining, identifying and judging the significances of the Images. Image enhancement refers to attenuation, or sharpening, of image features such as edgels, boundaries, or contrast to make the processed image more useful for analysis. Image enhancement procedures utilize the computers to provide good and improved images for study by the human interpreters. In thi...
متن کاملSpectral Entropy Employment in Speech Enhancement based on Wavelet Packet
In this work, we are interested in developing a speech denoising tool by using a discrete wavelet packet transform (DWPT). This speech denoising tool will be employed for applications of recognition, coding and synthesis. For noise reduction, instead of applying the classical thresholding technique, some wavelet packet nodes are set to zero and the others are thresholded. To estimate the non st...
متن کاملTransform Coefficient Histogram and Edge Preserving Image Enhancement Using Contrast Entropy
Enhancing an image in such a way that maintains image edges is a difficult problem. Many current methods for image enhancement either smooth edges on a small scale while improving contrast on a global scale or enhance edges on a large scale while amplifying noise on a small scale. Many applications of histograms for the purposes of image processing are well known. However, applying this process...

Medical image processing is a challenging field of research since the captured images suffers from the noise and poor contrast. The efficiency of the medical image processing depends on the quality of the captured medical images. Major factors for the low contrast medical images are age of capturing equipments, poor illumination conditions and in-experience of medical staff. Thus, contrast enha...
