Image Threshold Selection Exploiting Empirical Mode Decomposition
نویسندگان
چکیده
Thresholding process is a fundamental image processing method. Typical thresholding methods are based on partitioning pixels in an image into two clusters. A new thresholding method is presented, in this paper. The main contribution of the proposed approach is the detection of an optimal image threshold exploiting the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) algorithm. The EMD algorithm can decompose any nonlinear and non-stationary data into a number of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). When the image is decomposed by empirical mode decomposition (EMD), the intermediate IMFs of the image histogram have very good characteristics on image thresholding. The experimental results are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed threshold selection method.

Now a days Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is an important tool for image analyzing. Optimizing threshold value of Bidimensional Intrinsic Mode Function (BIMF) is one of the important tasks in speckle noise reduction in the Bidimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (BEMD) domain. Without proper selection of threshold value image information may be lost, which is unwanted. In this paper we p...
متن کاملA Fault Diagnosis Method for Automaton based on Morphological Component Analysis and Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition
In the fault diagnosis of automaton, the vibration signal presents non-stationary and non-periodic, which make it difficult to extract the fault features. To solve this problem, an automaton fault diagnosis method based on morphological component analysis (MCA) and ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) was proposed. Based on the advantages of the morphological component analysis method i...

This paper presents an empirical mode decomposition (EMD) based adaptive filter (AF) for channel estimation in OFDM system. In this method, length of channel impulse response (CIR) is first approximated using Akaike information criterion (AIC). Then, CIR is estimated using adaptive filter with EMD decomposed IMF of the received OFDM symbol. The correlation and kurtosis measures are used to sel...
متن کاملSelf-adaptive image denoising based on bidimensional empirical mode decomposition (BEMD).
To better analyze images with the Gaussian white noise, it is necessary to remove the noise before image processing. In this paper, we propose a self-adaptive image denoising method based on bidimensional empirical mode decomposition (BEMD). Firstly, normal probability plot confirms that 2D-IMF of Gaussian white noise images decomposed by BEMD follow the normal distribution. Secondly, energy es...
