Noise is one of the most widespread problems present in nearly all imaging applications. The search for efficient image denoising methods is still a valid challenge. In spite of the sophistication of the recently proposed methods, most algorithms have not yet attained a desirable level of applicability. They all show an outstanding performance when the image model corresponds to the algorithm assumptions, but fail in general and create artifacts or remove fine image structures. Therefore, a universal "best" filter has yet to be found. wavelet analysis is a new method consisting of a set basis functions that can be used to analyze signals in both time (or space) and frequency domains simultaneously. In this paper, a novel hybrid filter for image despeckling that combines wavelet denoising and an enhanced adaptive Kuan filter is proposed, resulting in a significant gain with respect to many spatial as well as wavelet-based speckle reduction filters.

Single-trail detection of P300 from EEG signals is the main challenge of diagnostic purposes and research applications. In this article, wavelet Transform is used for feature extraction from EEG signals. The goal is to prove the capability of wavelet transform in P300 feature extraction. A number of established wavelet feature extraction methods were evaluated from accuracy and computation speed perspectives. To conduct uniform evaluation, Support Vector Machine (SVM) was used for classification of all methods. The results show that DWT can be fast in computing signal features with lower accuracy, while a combination of DWT and T-CWT is proven to be more accurate when real-time computation is concerned.

Speckle noise is a major shortcoming of any type of ultrasound imaging. Hence, speckle reduction is vital in providing a better clinical diagnosis. The key objective of any speckle reduction algorithm is to attain a speckle free image, whilst preserving the important anatomical features. In this paper, we introduce a nonlinear multi-scale complex wavelet diffusion based algorithm for speckle reduction and sharp edge preservation of 2D ultrasound images. The proposed method exploits some useful features of the dual tree complex wavelet transform and nonlinear diffusion. Simulated experimental results demonstrate that our proposed algorithm significantly reduces speckle noise while preserving sharp edges without discernible distortions. The proposed approach performs better than the previous existing approaches in both qualitative and quantitative measures.

Traditional cepstral analysis methods are often used as part of feature extraction process in speech recognition. However the cepstral analysis method uses the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) in one of its computation process. The DFT uses fixed frame resolution to analyze frames of signal thus it will result in an analysis that would not accurately analyze localized events. This paper investigates the use of the Discrete wavelet Transform (DWT) for calculating the cepstrum coefficients. Two wavelet types with different decomposition level are experimented to yield the cepstrum which is called the wavelet Cepstral Coefficient (WCC). To test the WCC speech recognizing task of recognizing 26 English alphabets were conducted. Under same number of feature dimension the WCC outperformed the MFCC with about 20% in terms of recognition rate under both speaker dependent and speaker independent task.

This study focus on compression in wavelet decomposition for security in biometric data. The objectives of this research are two folds: a) to investigate whether compressed human eye image differ with the original eye and b) to obtain the compression ratio values using proposed methods. The experiments have been conducted to explore the application of sparsity-norm balance and sparsity-norm balance square root techniques in wavelet decomposition. The eye image with [320x280] dimension is used through the wavelet 2D tool of Matlab. The results showed that, the percentage of coefficients before compression energy was 99.65% and number of zeros were 97.99%. However, the percentage of energy was 99.97%, increased while the number of zeros was same after compression. Based on our findings, the impact of the compression produces different ratio and with minimal lost after the compression. The future work should imply in artificial intelligent area for protecting biometric data.

An early detection of abnormalities is the key point to improve the prognostic of breast Cancer. Masses are among the most frequent abnormalities. Their detection is however a very tedious and time-consuming task. This paper presents an automatic scheme to perform both detection and segmentation of breast masses. Firstly, the breast region is determined and extracted from the whole mammogram image. Secondly, an adaptive algorithm is proposed to perform an accurate identification of the mass region. Finally, a false positive reduction method is applied through a feature extraction method and classification using the advantages of multiresolution representations (curvelet and wavelet). The classification step is achieved using SVM and KNN classifiers to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. The proposed method is tested on 118 images from mammographic images analysis society (MIAS) datasets. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme achieves 100% sensitivity with average of 1.87 False Positive (FP) detections per image.

Steganography conceals the secret information inside the cover medium. There are two types of steganography techniques available practically. They are spatial domain steganography and Transform domain steganography. The objectives to be considered in the steganography methods are high capacity, imperceptibility and robustness. In this paper, a Color image steganography in transform domain is proposed. Reversible Integer Haar wavelet transform is applied to the R, G and B planes separately and the data is embedded in a random manner. Random selection of wavelet coefficients is based on the graph theory. This proposed system uses three different keys for embedding and extraction of the secret data, where key1(Subband Selection - SB) is used to select the wavelet subband for embedding, key2(Selection of Co-effecients-SC) is used to select the co-efficients randomly and key3 (Selection of Bit length-SB) is used to select the number of bits to be embedded in the selected co-efficients. This method shows good imperceptibility, High capacity and Robustness.

The way image sequences are encoded by technological systems, that is video, is fundamentally tied to the way in which the human eye and brain interpret images and motion. This includes such aspects as resolution, colour, dynamic range, frame rates and spatial and temporal compression techniques. On the contrary, object identification algorithms are commonly based on single image analysis, such as the extraction of a single video frame from a sequence. This mismatch of, in particular, temporal processing paradigms means that most object analysis algorithms are not well suited to the data with which they are presented. In order to bridge this gap we investigate the temporal preconditioning of video data through a biologically-inspired vision model, based on multi-stage processing analogous to the vision systems of insects. In doing so, we argue that such an approach can lead to improved object identification through the enhancement of object perimeters and the amelioration of lighting and compression artefacts such as shadows and blockiness.

In this paper we have analyzed the discrete wavelet transform of multispectral image of Bareilly region using MatLab tool. The wavelet transform is one of the most useful computational tools for a variety of signal and imageprocessingapplications. The wavelet transform is used for the compression of digital image because smaller data are important for storing images using less memory and for transmitting images faster and more reliably. wavelet transforms are useful for images to reduce unwanted noise and blurring. A discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is any wavelet transform for which the wavelets are discretely sampled. A key advantage it has over Fourier transforms is temporal resolution: it captures both frequency and time domain information.

The real world signals do not exist without noise. image denoising system should remove this noise to recover the original signal. Noise removal can be conducted in the time-space (original signal) domain or in a transform domain. To perform in transform domain, researchers utilize the Fourier Transform (FT) or the wavelet Transform (WT). The wavelet Transform, specifically Discrete wavelet Transform (DWT) performs well in noise removal applications. But they suffer from poor directional selectivity, shift sensitivity problem and absence of phase information. The proposed double-density dual-tree complex DWT is based on two scaling function and four distinct wavelets. This technique removes the demerits of the DWT and performs superior in image denoising applications than traditional linear processing (such as wiener filtering), stationary wavelet transform (SWT), dual-tree DWT, double-density DWT etc. In this paper, the prominent results in terms of PSNR, MSE and Histogram of the proposed system are compared with dual-tree complex wavelet transform and global thresholding method. From experimental point of view, the grayscale images are considered which are corrupted by Gaussian noise.
