We describe the lifting dual tree complex wavelet transform (LDTCWT), a type of lifting wavelets remodeling that produce complex coefficients by employing a dual tree of lifting wavelets filters to get its real part and imaginary part. Permits the remodel to produce approximate shift invariance, directionally selective filters and reduces the computation time (properties lacking within the classical wavelets transform). We describe a way to estimate the accuracy of this approximation and style appropriate filters to attain this. These benefits are often exploited among applications like denoising, segmentation, image fusion and compression. The results of applications shrinkage denoising demonstrate objective and subjective enhancements over the dual tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT). The results of the shrinkage denoising example application indicate empirical and subjective enhancements over the DTCWT. The new transform with the DTCWT provide a trade-off between denoising computational competence of performance, and memory necessities. We tend to use the PSNR (peak signal to noise ratio) alongside the structural similarity index measure (SSIM) and the SSIM map to estimate denoised image quality.

This paper presents a new algorithm to reduce the noise from Kalpana Satellite Images using Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform technique. Satellite Images are not simple photographs; they are pictorial representation of measured data. Interpretation of noisy raw data leads to wrong estimation of geophysical parameters such as precipitation, cloud information etc., hence there is a need to improve the raw data by reducing the noise for better analysis. The satellite images are normally affected by various noises. This paper mainly concentrates on reducing the Gaussian noise, Poisson noise and Salt & Pepper noise. Finally the performance of the DTCWT wavelet measures in terms of Peak Signal to Noise Ratio and Structural Similarity Index for both noisy & denoised Kalpana images.

Compressed sampling in the application of magnetic resonance imaging compression requires high accuracy when reconstructing from a small number of samples. Sparsity in magnetic resonance images is a fundamental requirement in compressed sampling. In this paper, we proposed the lifting wavelet transform sparsity technique by taking wavelet coefficients on the low pass sub-band that contains meaningful information. The application of novel methods useful for compressing data with the highest compression ratio at the sender but still maintaining high accuracy at the receiver. These wavelet coefficient values are arranged to form a sparse vector. We explore the performance of the proposed method by testing at several levels of lifting wavelet transform decomposition, include Levels 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The second requirement for compressed sampling is the acquisition technique. The data sampled sparse vectors using a normal distributed random measurement matrix. This matrix is normalized to the average energy of the image pixel block. The last compressed sampling requirement is a reconstruction algorithm. In this study, we analyze three reconstruction algorithms, namely Level 1 magic, iteratively reweighted least squares, and orthogonal matching pursuit, based on structural similarity index measured and peak signal to noise ratio metrics. Experimental results show that magnetic resonance imaging can be reconstructed with higher structural similarity index measured and peak signal to noise ratio using the lifting wavelet transform sparsity technique at a minimum decomposition level of 4. The proposed lifting wavelet transforms and Level 1 magic reconstruction algorithm has the best performance compared to the others at the measurement rate range between 10 to 70. This method also outperforms the techniques in previous studies.

Denoising is a prime objective technique for processing images. Image denoising techniques removes the noises present in an image without interrupting its features and contents. The image gets interrupted by channel or processing noise depending on the applications. Thus, the contaminated noises produce degradable image qualities with respect to subjective and objective approach. To overcome this, image denoising approaches were suggested. In the present research, Dual–Tree Complex Wavelet transform (DTCWT) is utilized to achieve image denoising since they perform multi resolution decomposition by two DWT trees. Soft and hard thresholding methods are used to threshold wavelet coefficients. The present research proposes a novel technique to denoise images which gives image information clearly by thresholding and optimization technique. The optimization is carried through different Meta-heuristic optimization Algorithms Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Grey-wolf optimization (GWO) algorithm. Optimization of threshold value is performed after Bayesian method and the observed output produces better results when compared to other techniques involving Visu shrink, Sure shrink and Bayes shrinkbased on peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and visual qualities.

An accurate Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system is essential for the correct retrieval of desired images from the underlying database. Rotation invariance is very important for accurate Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). In this chapter, rotation invariance in Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system is achieved by extracting Fourier features from images on which Dual Tree Complex Wavelets Transform (DT-CWT) has been applied. Before applying DT-CWT, the Fourier feature set is reduced by exploiting the symmetry property of Fourier transform. For an N x N image, feature set has been reduced from N2/2 features to N2/4 features. This reduction in feature set increases the speed of the system. Hence, this chapter proposes a method which makes the Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system faster without comprising accuracy and rotation invariance.

     Various document types play an influential role in a lot of our lives activities today; hence preserving their integrity is an important matter. Such documents have various forms, including texts, videos, sounds, and images.  The latter types' authentication will be our concern here in this paper. Images can be handled spatially by doing the proper modification directly on their pixel values or spectrally through conducting some adjustments to some of the addressed coefficients. Due to spectral (frequency) domain flexibility in handling data, the domain coefficients are utilized for the watermark embedding purpose. The integer wavelet transform (IWT), which is a wavelet transform based on the lifting scheme, is adopted in this paper in order to provide a direct way for converting image pixels' integer values to integer coefficient values rather than floating point coefficients that could be produced by the traditional wavelet transform. This direct relation can enhance the processed image quality due to avoiding the rounding operations on the floating point coefficients. The well-known parity bit approach is also utilized in this paper as an authentication mechanism, where 3 secret parity bits are used for each block in an image which is divided into non-overlapped blocks in order to enforce a form of fragile watermark approach. Thus, any alteration in the block pixels could cause the adopted (even) parity to be violated. The fragile watermarking is achieved through the modification of least significant bits ((LSBs) of certain frequency coefficients' according to the even parity condition. In spite of this image watermarking operation, the proposed method is efficient. In order to prove the efficiency of our proposed method, it was tested against standard images using measurements like peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity index (SSIM).  Experiments showed promising results; the method preserves high image quality (PSNR≈ 44.4367dB, SSIM≈ 0.9956) and good tamper detection capability.

Drawback of losing high frequency components suffers the resolution enhancement. In this project, wavelet domain based image resolution enhancement technique using Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DT-CWT) is proposed for resolution enhancement of the satellite images. Input images are decomposed by using DT-CWT in this proposed enhancement technique. Inverse DT-CWT is used to generate a new resolution enhanced image from the interpolation of high-frequency sub band images and the input low-resolution image. Intermediate stage has been proposed for estimating the high frequency sub bands to achieve a sharper image. It has been tested on benchmark images from public database. Peak Signal-To-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and visual results show the dominance of the proposed technique over the predictable and state-of-art image resolution enhancement techniques.

For the past two decades, wavelet based image compression algorithms for Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has gained broad attention than that of the spatial based image compression algorithms. In that, Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transforms (DTCWT) has provided better results in terms of image quality and high compression rate. However, the selection of DTCWT based image compressions for various WSN based applications is not practically suitable, due to the major limitations of WSN such as, low bandwidth, low energy consumption and storage space. Therefore, an attempt has been made in this paper to develop image compression through simulation by considering the modified block based pass parallel Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) with Double Density Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DDDTCWT) for compressing the WSN based images. In addition, bivariate shrink method is also adopted with the DDDTCWT to obtain better image quality within less computation time. It is observed through simulation results that above mentioned proposed technique provides better performance than that of existing compression technique

Seismic analysis for reservoir characterization has been a primary focus for the geophysical community for decades. One of the critical steps in delivering high-quality processed seismic data for seismic analysis is to remove undesirable prestack seismic phenomena prior to amplitude variation with offset (AVO) analysis. Contrary to the conventional approach, which is mainly 2D gather-based and assumes flat events, we have developed a 3D nonlinear approach with a single principle: the 3D geologic structure should be invariant from offset to offset. Trained dictionaries, generated by 3D complex wavelet transformation over pilot volumes, are progressively constructed by stacking over selected offsets or angles. A sparse nonlinear approximation using the L0 norm is imposed on the data against the trained dictionaries after applying a 3D complex wavelet transform to the data. The final step is to apply an inverse 3D complex wavelet transform to the sparsified coefficients to return to the data space. This workflow is repeated for all offsets or angles. The workflow is automatic and requires minimal user input, resulting in a fast and efficient process. Multiple field data examples have demonstrated significant signal-to-noise ratio uplift, AVO and azimuthal AVO conservation, preservation of steeply dipping structural events, and multiple suppression. The processing time is significantly shorter compared with alternative conventional processes.

Image compression is the emerging field to transmit the multimedia products like image, video and audio. Image compression is used to reduce the storage quantity as much as possible. The objective of this paper is to compare the multiscale transform based image compression encoding techniques. The multiscale transforms involved in this paper are wavelet transform, bandelet transform, curvelet transform, ridgelet transform and contourlet transform. Wavelet transform allows good localization both in time and frequency domain. Bandelet transform takes geometric regularity of the natural images to improve the efficiency of representation. Curvelet transform handles curve discontinuities well. Curvelets are the good tool for the analysis and the computation of partial differential equations. Curvelets also have micro local features which make them especially adapted to certain reconstruction problems with missing data. The ridgelet transform is the core idea behind curvelet transform. It is used to represent objects with line singularities. The contourlet transform gets smooth contours and edges at any orientation. It filters noise as well. The Encoding techniques involved in this paper are spatial orientation tree wavelet (STW), set partitioned embedded block (SPECK) and compression with reversible embedded wavelet (CREW). The performance parameters such as peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), image quality index and structural similarity index (SSIM) are used for the purpose of evaluation. It is found that bandelet transform with all the encoding techniques work well.

Monitoring of Fetal Heart Rate (FHR) in the pregnancy period commonly uses the Doppler-based instruments despite having several disadvantages, such as high-cost and complexity of the monitoring system. Implementation of the passive and non-invasive method based on fetal phonocardiogram (fPCG), the acoustic recording of fetus cardiac signal, can be used as a potentially economical long-term monitoring device for diagnosis. Because the interference signal from the maternal women exists, the matured denoising technique was needed to implement the fPCG method to diagnose the fetus' well-being condition. The denoising system based on Dual-tree Complex Wavelet Transforms (DTCWT) was proposed in this paper. The proposed method was evaluated using Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). Based on the experiment result from 37 fPCG signals from physio.net, the DTCWT system performance was compared with the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). There were 24 CWT’s denoised fPCG signals that have successfully outperformed DWT’s SNR. DTCWT has also reduced the noises in the range of 30 Hz–80 Hz. Also, it emphasized the existence of dominant frequencies in the range of 60 Hz–65 Hz.
