We propose a robust interpolation scheme for aliased regularly sampled seismic data that uses the curvelet transform. In a first pass, the curvelet transform is used to compute the curvelet coefficients of the aliased seismic data. The aforementioned coefficients are divided into two groups of scales: alias-free and alias-contaminated scales. The alias-free curvelet coefficients are upscaled to...

Malayalam, the official language of Kerala, a southern state of India has been accorded the honour of language of eminence. Hence the researches in recognition and related works in Malayalam language is gaining more prominence in the current scenario. This paper proposes the use of Curvelet transform and neural network for the recognition of handwritten Malayalam character. Curvelet transform i...

The information from patient’s body is captured as medical images and is used for surgical and diagnostic purposes. Compression of medical images is essential for storage and transmission of patient's data. Due to high impact of details in medical images, lossless compression is preferred. This paper presents colour medical image compression using Curvelet transform with lifting and Huffman cod...

In this paper, we present a new method for content based images retrieval (CBIR). We propose characterizing images by using global information extracted from the Fast and Adaptive Bidimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (FAEMD), which decomposes image into a set of functions named Bidimensional Intrinsic Mode Functions (BIMF) and a residue. On the first two BIMFs, which contains a high frequ...

Efficient representation of images usually leads to improvements in storage efficiency, computational complexity and performance of image processing algorithms. Efficient representation of images can be achieved by transforms. However, conventional transforms such as Fourier transform and wavelet transform suffer from discontinuities such as edges in images. To address this problem, we propose ...

The clarity of medical image, which is directly acquired from the scanning machine, is very less. Image enhancement is one of the best and efficient techniques to increase the quality of image. A combined approach of different techniques such as Wavelet, Curvelet and Multiple Kernel Fuzzy C-Means algorithm was carry out in this paper. Wavelet and Curvelet transforms are used for denoising purpo...
