The low computational complexity and high coding efficiency are the most significant requirements for image compression and transmission. Reversible biorthogonal integer wavelet transform (RB-IWT) supports the low computational complexity by lifting scheme (LS) and allows both lossy and lossless decoding using a single bitstream. However, RB-IWT degrades the performances and peak signal noise ratio (PSNR) of the image coding for image compression. In this paper, a new IWT-based compression scheme based on optimal RB-IWT and improved SPECK is presented. In this new algorithm, the scaling parameter of each subband is chosen for optimizing the transform coefficient. During coding, all image coefficients are encoding using simple, efficient quadtree partitioning method. This scheme is similar to the SPECK, but the new method uses a single quadtree partitioning instead of set partitioning and octave band partitioning of original SPECK, which reduces the coding complexity. Experiment results show that the new algorithm not only obtains low computational complexity, but also provides the peak signal-noise ratio (PSNR) performance of lossy coding to be comparable to the SPIHT algorithm using RB-IWT filters, and better than the SPECK algorithm. Additionally, the new algorithm supports both efficiently lossy and lossless compression using a single bitstream. This presented algorithm is valuable for future remote sensing image compression.

Digital image inpainting is the process by which corrupted or defective areas in an image are systematically corrected. New digital image inpainting techniques have been developed in recent years, leading to numerous successful applications, particularly in the are of image restoration. We propose a new image inpainting algorithm base don wavelet sparse representation, and extend its applicability as a new approach for gap-filling in micrometeorological data. Our approach consists of treating the incomplete data set as a structured image that has a sparse representation in the wavelet domain. Therefore, an l(1) minimization problem is formulated in order to characterize the sparsest solution associated with the complete data set. A numerical experimentation on a real micrometeorological data set is conducted, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
In literature, several methods are available to combine both low spatial multispectral and low spectral panchromatic resolution images to obtain a high resolution multispectral image. One of the most common problems e...

In this paper, we describe the use of phase-invariant complex wavelet filters, coupled to a training process involving a small, high-quality training dataset, to build an image segmentation system capable of performing in very low signal-to-noise, and under conditions of strong object-background contrast change. The three main components of our approach are: i) a patch-based feature description of local phase-invariant orientation fields;ii) a priori ground-truth data;iii) a machine learning method, such as Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) or kernel-based Support Vector Machine (SVM), to build an accurate classifier that is customised to the segmentation problem. A key feature of the approach is that it may be easily retrained and is, therefore, more adaptable to different imaging modalities. A representation of phase-invariant local image orientation using geometric algebra is first introduced;this is important to the patch-based approach. The quality of our trained systems is then assessed using Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves in two different biomedical applications: the human retinal vessel-bed in colour fundus images from the publicly available DRIVE database, and the rabbit endothelial cell boundaries of thoracic aorta microscopy images.
