Super-Resolution image Reconstruction Based on Iteration and Wavelet Transform

In this paper, we provide a super-resolution image reconstruction algorithm based on wavelet transform. Wavelet transform can separate high frequency and low frequency information of image. The more high frequency information can be obtained by using wavelet transform and the technique of image fusion. Meanwhile, reconstructed super-resolution image is produced by the iterative method. In iteration process, noise of image can be suppressed by applying method of wavelet threshold de-noising. The experiment results show that the algorithm can overcome the disadvantage of the classical interpolation method and effectively improve the resolution and PSNR of the image.     

基于期望值最大算法和离散小波框架的图像融合

The discrete wavelet transform has become an attractive tool for fusing multisensor images. This paper investigates the discrete wavelet frame transform. A major advantage of this method over discrete wavelet transform is aliasing free and translation invariant. The discrete wavelet frame (DWF) transform is used to decompose the registered images into multiscale representation with the low frequency and the high frequency bands. The low frequency band is normalized and fused by using the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm. The informative importance measure is applied to the high frequency band. The final fused image is obtained by taking the inverse transform on the composite coefficient representations. Experiments show that the proposed method is more effective than conventional image fusion methods.     

Multi-spectral image fusion method based on two channels non-separable wavelets

A construction method of two channels non-separable wavelets filter bank which dilation matrix is [1, 1; 1,-1] and its application in the fusion of multi-spectral image are presented. Many 4×4 filter banks are designed. The multi-spectral image fusion algorithm based on this kind of wavelet is proposed. Using this filter bank, multi-resolution wavelet decomposition of the intensity of multi-spectral image and panchromatic image is performed, and the two low-frequency components of the intensity and the panchromatic image are merged by using a tradeoff parameter. The experiment results show that this method is good in the preservation of spectral quality and high spatial resolution information. Its performance in preserving spectral quality and high spatial information is better than the fusion method based on DWFT and IHS. When the parameter t is closed to 1, the fused image can obtain rich spectral information from the original MS image. The amount of computation reduced to only half of the fusion method based on four channels wavelet transform.     

Image denoising using statistical model based on quaternion wavelet domain

Image denoising is the basic problem of image processing.Quaternion wavelet transform is a new kind of multiresolution analysis tools.Image via quaternion wavelet transform,wavelet coefficients both in intrascale and in interscale have certain correlations.First,according to the correlation of quaternion wavelet coefficients in interscale,non-Gaussian distribution model is used to model its correlations,and the coefficients are divided into important and unimportance coefficients.Then we use the non-Gaussian distribution model to model the important coefficients and its adjacent coefficients,and utilize the MAP method estimate original image wavelet coefficients from noisy coefficients,so as to achieve the purpose of denoising.Experimental results show that our algorithm outperforms the other classical algorithms in peak signal-to-noise ratio and visual quality.

一种新颖的图像水印嵌入方法

An novel embedding method for image watermark based on wavelet transform is proposed. With this method ,the value of each pels is modified directly,so that a bit of watermark information is embedded in every pel-s. Before emeded,the original image is decomposed by wavelet transform,and then,a correlation mask for every imagepels is confirmed by the characteristic and tree structure ralation of the wavelet coefficients. At last, the modified val-ue of every pels is controlled by its corresponding mask for watermark information embedded. The experimental re-sults show that the embedded digital watermarks with this proposed method are invisible and robust enough againstthe commonly used image processing techniques.     

Novel infrared and visible image fusion method based on independent component analysis

The goal of infrared （IR） and visible image fu- sion is for the fused image to contain IR object features from the IR image and retain the visual details provided by the visible image. The disadvantage of traditional fusion method based on independent component analysis （ICA） is that the primary feature information that describes the IR objects and the secondary feature information in the IR image are fused into the fused image. Secondary feature information can de- press the visual effect of the fused image. A novel ICA-based IR and visible image fusion scheme is proposed in this paper. ICA is employed to extract features from the infrared image, and then the primary and secondary features are distinguished by the kurtosis information of the ICA base coefficients. The secondary features of the IR image are discarded during fu- sion. The fused image is obtained by fusing primary features into the visible image. Experimental results show that the pro- posed method can provide better perception effect.     

Formal photograph compression algorithm based on object segmentation

Small storage space for photographs in formal documents is increasingly necessary in today＇s needs for huge amounts of data communication and storage. Traditional compression algorithms do not sufficiently utilize the distinctness of formal photographs. That is, the object is an image of the human head, and the background is in unicolor. Therefore, the compression is of low efficiency and the image after compression is still space-consuming. This paper presents an image compression algorithm based on object segmentation for practical high-efficiency applications. To achieve high coding efficiency, shape-adaptive discrete wavelet transforms are used to transformation arbitrarily shaped objects. The areas of the human head and its background are compressed separately to reduce the coding redundancy of the background. Two methods, lossless image contour coding based on differential chain, and modified set partitioning in hierarchical trees （SPIHT） algorithm of arbitrary shape, are discussed in detail. The results of experiments show that when bit per pixel （bpp）is equal to 0.078, peak signal-to-noise ratio （PSNR） of reconstructed photograph will exceed the standard of SPIHT by nearly 4dB.

SWVFS： a saliency weighted visual feature similarity metric for image quality assessment

In this paper, a saliency weighted visual feature similarity （SWVFS） metric is proposed for full reference im- age quality assessment （IQA）. Instead of traditional spatial pooling strategies, a visual saliency-based approach is em- ployed for better compliance with properties of the human visual system, where the saliency allocation is closely related to the activity of posterior parietal cortex and the pluvial nu- clei of the thalamus. Assuming that the saliency map actually represents the contribution of locally computed visual distor- tions to the overall image quality, the gradient similarity and the textural congruency are merged into the final image qual- ity indicator. The gradient and texture comparison play com- plementary roles in characterizing the local image distortion. Extensive experiments conducted on seven publicly available image databases show that the performance of SWVFS is competitive with the state-of-the-art IQA algorithms.
