An edge enhancement filter is proposed for denoising and enhancing images corrupted with data-dependent noise which is observed to follow a Gamma distribution. The filter is equipped with three terms designed to perform three different tasks. The first term is an anisotropic diffusion term which is derived from a locally adaptivep-laplacian functional. The second term is an enhancement term or a shock term which imparts a shock effect at the edge points making them sharp. The third term is a reactive term which is derived based on the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimator and this term helps the diffusive term to perform a Gamma distributive data-dependent multiplicative noise removal from images. And moreover, this reactive term ensures that deviation of the restored image from the original one is minimum. This proposed filter is compared with the state-of-the-art restoration models proposed for data-dependent multiplicative noise.

In this paper, we propose a variational method for restoring images corrupted by multiplicative noise. Computationally, we employ the alternating minimization method to solve our minimization problem. We also study the existence and uniqueness of the proposed problem. Finally, experimental results are provided to demonstrate the superiority of our proposed hybrid model and algorithm for image denoising in comparison with state-of-the-art methods.

© 2004-2012 IEEE. In this letter, we propose a new despeckling filter for fully polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) images defined by 3× 3 complex Wishart distributions. We first generalize the well-known structure tensor to deal with PolSAR data which allows to efficiently measure the dominant direction and contrast of edges. The generalization includes stochastic distances defined in the space of the Wishart matrices. Then, we embed the formulation into an anisotropic diffusion-like schema to build a filter able to reduce speckle and preserve edges. We evaluate its performance through an innovative experimental setup that also includes Monte Carlo analysis. We compare the results with a state-of-the-art polarimetric filter.
