This paper proposes a novel wavelet filtering method by spatial correlation thresholding based on undecimated wavelet transform (UDWT). We multiply two adjacent wavelet scales with some relative translations to line up the edges. A new threshold is presented applying to spatial correlation in our proposed scheme. Finally, we extract edge information from larger scale to smaller one only at the positions which have been extracted as edges. The simulation results indicate that our algorithm can keep edges well while removing noise greatly. It is an effective noise filtration technique especially for the signals which have abundant edge and detail information. Furthermore, it can be easily extended to edge detection, fault diagnosis, image enhancement and other applications.

In this paper, we propose a novel hierarchical statistical model for imagewavelet coefficients. A simple classification scheme is used to construct a model that captures interscale and intrascale dependencies of wavelet coefficients. applications to image denoising are presented. We develop a simple algorithm that outperforms other wavelet denoising schemes that exploit first-order statistics, or inter- or intra- scale dependencies alone.

Acoustic sound generated by the heart mechanical activity, can provide useful information about the condition of heart valves. The heart sound auscultation is the fundamental tool in the evaluation of the cardiovascular system. The advantage of this method is fast, inexpensive and noninvasive. Due to human auscultatory limitation and non-stationary characteristics of phonocardiogram signals (PCG), diagnosis based on sounds that are heard via a stethoscope is difficult skill, therefor it requires a lot of practice. This study has proposed a biomedical automatic system for classification of PCG signals, which, recorded by a digital stethoscope. In order to extract various characteristics of PCG signals, the power spectrum estimation, wavelet transform (WT) and Mel frequency Cepstrum coefficients (MFCC) have been used in feature extraction step. Features are given to four classifiers: support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbor (k-NN), multilayer perceptron (MLP) and maximum likelihood (ML). The majority voting combination rule is utilized for fusion of different classifiers. The proposed method has been examined on dataset of 90 PCG records containing healthy and three types of cardiac valve diseases (pulmonary stenosis (PS), Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) and Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD)). The experimental results demonstrate that the classifier fusion rule significantly increases the diagnostic accuracy of abnormal PCG. Our proposed method can be used for online classification of PCG in intelligent diagnosis systems.

A new fusion method based on bilateral pyramid for multispectral and panchromatic images is presented. Bilateral pyramid is a multiscale decomposition method which can decompose an input image into a base layer representing the low frequency content and several detail layers representing the high frequency part of the image. The fused image is obtained by three different rules: substitutive, additive and additive luminance proportional methods. The proposed methods are compared with the widely used IHS (intensity-hue-saturation) and ATWT based fusion methods. The resulting images as well as evaluation metrics demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has better performance.

We propose a novel approach for scattered data smoothing based on second generation wavelets. This wavelet transform automatically adapts to the irregularity of the grid. Our implementation also pays attention to numerical stability, a crucial property in estimation procedures. The wavelet coefficients are shrunk either with simple soft-thresholding or with an empirical Bayesian estimation.

Discrete wavelet transform (DWT), has diverse applications in signal and imageprocessing fields. In this paper, we have implemented the lifting "Le Gall 5/3" algorithm on a low cost NVIDIA's GPU (Graphics processing unit) with Mat Lab to achieve speedup in computation. The efficiency of our GPU based implementation is measured and compared with CPU based algorithms. Our investigational results with GPU show performance enhancement over a factor of 1.52 compared with CPU for an image of size 3072x3072.

In this paper, we propose a statistical modeling of images based on a decomposition with complex-valued Daubechies wavelets. These wavelets possess interesting properties that can be turn into account in the modeling to obtain a better characterization of the images. This characterization is achieved by statistically modeling the wavelet coefficient distribution via a hidden Markov tree model. The wavelet coefficients in an image are organized into three tree structures and this type of model has already been used successfully in this context by independently modeling each of these trees. We propose a further refinement by considering the joint modeling of the three trees with a so-called mixed memory hidden Markov tree model. The model is based on a memory mixture, a general approach to obtain an approximation of the joint distribution in the presence of factorial Markov models. The utilization of such model is quite general and can be applied to various signal-processing problems. To illustrate the interest of this model as well as the relevance of using complex Daubechies wavelets, we evaluate their performance for a classification and a denoising application.

Blurred images are produced by interpolation process. A wavelet-based magnification method is proposed that both increases the resolution of an image and adds local high-frequency informations, in order to provide digitally zoomed images with sharp edges. wavelet transforms computed by the decimated Mallat's algorithm present pyramidal aspect. This pyramidal analysis combined with a prediction of high-frequency coefficients is used to produce a magnified image. The prediction is based on a zero-crossings representation and on the construction of a multiscale edge-signature database. Performances are evaluated for synthetic and noisy images. A significant improvement regarding some classical methods (spline interpolation) is observed.

The Lifting Scheme (LS) is a very efficient implementation of the Discrete wavelet transform (DWT). In this work we compute the arithmetic gain realized when the LS is used instead of conventional filter banks. It is shown that contrary to was was presented in the original work from Sweldens again of four is possible. However the LS should be used with care as it can increase the memory bandwidth. Some implementations are presented together with their impact on the bandwidth.
