This paper introduces a novel speech enhancement system based on a wavelet denoising framework. In this system, the noisy speech is first preprocessed using a generalized spectral subtraction method to initially lower the noise level with negligible speech distortion. A perceptual wavelet transform is then used to decompose the resulting speech signal into critical bands. Threshold estimation i...

Abstract Different tasks in the computational pipeline of single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) require enhancing quality highly noisy raw images. To this end, we develop an efficient algorithm for signal enhancement cryo-EM The enhanced images can be used a variety downstream tasks, such as two-dimensional classification, removing uninformative images, constructing ab initio model...

he coherent steady-state free precession (SSFP) pulse sequence is increasingly being used in cine imaging for evaluating the cardiac function. Compared to the spoiled gradient echo MRI, which has usually been performed for cardiac cine imaging, the SSFP imaging sequence provides a higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by recycling the residual transverse magnetization, and there is less of an infl...

conclusions although in our study washout pattern was the most powerful indicator for malignant pathology in non mass like enhancing lesions, more studies with larger sample size needs in this regard. background several studies on the diagnostic efficacy of mri has not real consensus for the accuracy of mri characteristics in non mass like breast lesions, and the number of malignant lesions in ...

OBJECTIVE Ultra-small superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (USPIO) are promising contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). USPIO mediated proton relaxation rate enhancement is strongly dependent on compartmentalization of the agent and can vary depending on their intracellular or extracellular location in the tumor microenvironment. We compared the T1- and T2-enhancement patte...

This paper deals with the problem of speech enhancement when a corrupted speech signal with an additive Gaussian white noise is the only information available for processing. Speech enhancement aims to improve speech quality by using various algorithms. The objective of enhancement is improvement in intelligibility and/or overall perceptual quality of degraded speech signal using audio signal p...
