چکیده

The wavelet transform has proven to be a valuable tool for image processing applications, like image compression and noise reduction. In this paper we present a scheme to process very large images that do not fit in the memory of a single computer, based on the software library WAILI (Wavelets with Integer Lifting). Such images are divided into blocks that are processed quasi independently, allowing efficient parallel programming. The blocking is almost completely transparent to the user.

Statistical Wavelet-based Image Denoising using Scale Mixture of Normal Distributions with Adaptive Parameter Estimation

Removing noise from images is a challenging problem in digital image processing. This paper presents an image denoising method based on a maximum a posteriori (MAP) density function estimator, which is implemented in the wavelet domain because of its energy compaction property. The performance of the MAP estimator depends on the proposed model for noise-free wavelet coefficients. Thus in the wa...

Compressed-Sampling-Based Image Saliency Detection in the Wavelet Domain

When watching natural scenes, an overwhelming amount of information is delivered to the Human Visual System (HVS). The optic nerve is estimated to receive around 108 bits of information a second. This large amount of information can’t be processed right away through our neural system. Visual attention mechanism enables HVS to spend neural resources efficiently, only on the selected parts of the...
