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.

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.

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.

Many methods for computer vision applications have been developed using wavelet theory. Almost all of them are based on real-valued discrete wavelet transform. This chapter introduces two computer vision applications, namely moving object segmentation and moving shadow detection and removal, using Daubechies complex wavelet transform. Daubechies complex wavelet transform has advantages over discrete wavelet transform as it is approximately shift-invariant, has a better edge detection, and provides true phase information. Results after applying Daubechies complex wavelet transform on these two applications demonstrate that Daubechies complex wavelet transform-based methods provide better results than other real-valued wavelet transform-based methods, and it also demonstrates that Daubechies complex wavelet transform has the potential to be applied to other computer vision applications.

A novel signal denoising method is proposed whereby goodness-of-fit (GOF) test in combination with a majority classifications-based neighbourhood filtering is employed on complex wavelet coefficients obtained by applying dual tree complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) on a noisy signal. The DT-CWT has proven to be a better tool for signal denoising as compared to the conventional discrete wavelet transform (DWT) owing to its approximate translation invariance. The proposed framework exploits statistical neighbourhood dependencies by performing the GOF test locally on the DT-CWT coefficients for their preliminary classification/detection as signal or noise. Next, a deterministic neighbourhood filtering approach based on majority noise classifications is employed to detect false classification of signal coefficients as noise (via the GOF test) which are subsequently restored. The proposed method shows competitive performance against the state of the art in signal denoising.

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.

ABSTRACT. Images of the Sun obtained in distinct electromagnetic ranges can be very useful to investigate electrodynamical processes that occur in this star. This work analyzes the application of a two-dimensional version of the Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DTCWT) to highlight physical features in the Large Angle and Spectrometric Coronograph images. The importance of those features is that they are related with coronal ejections of magnetized solar plasma, which can produce geomagnetic disturbances at the Earth. The DTCWT is a laborious improvement of the well-known Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) with additional properties of shift invariance, ability to analyze multiple directions for multidimensional signals, and computationally efficient algorithms. The multilevel decomposition of an image with the DTCWT generates complex wavelet coefficients, which are manipulated for providing a proper visualization of the plasma structures, highlighting features, and helping further analyses. The methodology implemented here is of interest to space weather laboratories and has been shown to be a very useful tool to a better identification and characterization of the features related to magnetized plasma phenomena in the solar corona.Keywords: coronal mass ejection, solar plasma, solar corona images, complex wavelet transform, space weather.RESUMO. Imagens do Sol obtidas em diferentes intervalos do espectro eletromagnético podem ser bem úteis na investigação de processos eletrodinâmicos que ocorrem nesta estrela. Este trabalho analisa a aplicação de uma versão bidimensional da Transformada Wavelet Complexa de dupla árvore (DTCWT) para destacar características físicas nas imagens do Coronógrafo Espectométrico de Ângulo Largo (LASCO). A importância dessas características é que elas estão relacionadas a ejeções coronais de plasma solar magnetizado, que podem produzir perturbações geomagnéticas na Terra. A DTCWT é um aprimoramento laborioso da bem conhecida Transformada Wavelet Discreta (DWT), com propriedades adicionais de: (i) invariância a deslocamentos, (ii) habilidade em analisar múltiplas direções para sinais multidimensionais, e (iii) algoritmo computacionalmente eficiente. A decomposição multinível de uma imagem com a DTCWT gera coeficientes wavelets complexos, que são manipulados para prover uma visualização adequada das estruturas de plasmas, destacando características, e ajudando nas análises posteriores. De interesse dos laboratórios de Clima Espacial, a metodologia implementada aqui mostrou-se ser muito útil para uma melhor identificação e caracterização dos fenômenos de plasmas magnetizados na coroa solar.Palavras-chave: ejeção de massa coronal, plasma solar, imagens da coroa solar, transformada wavelet complexa, clima espacial.

Existing Medical imaging techniques such as fMRI, positron emission tomography (PET), dynamic 3D ultrasound and dynamic computerized tomography yield large amounts of four-dimensional sets. 4D medical data sets are the series of volumetric images netted in time, large in size and demand a great of assets for storage and transmission. Here, in this paper, we present a method wherein 3D image is taken and Discrete Wavelet Transform(DWT) and Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform(DTCWT) techniques are applied separately on it and the image is split into sub-bands. The encoding and decoding are done using 3D-SPIHT, at different bit per pixels(bpp). The reconstructed image is synthesized using Inverse DWT technique. The quality of the compressed image has been evaluated using some factors such as Mean Square Error(MSE) and Peak-Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR).

This paper is a comparative study of image denoising using previously known wavelet transform and new type of wavelet transform, namely, Diversity enhanced discrete wavelet transform. The Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) has two parameters: the mother wavelet and the number of iterations. For every noisy image, there is a best pair of parameters for which we get maximum output Peak Signal to Noise Ratio, PSNR. As the denoising algorithms are sensitive to the parameters of the wavelet transform used, in this paper comparison of DEDWT to DWT has been presented. The diversity is enhanced by computing wavelet transforms with different parameters. After the filtering of each detail coefficient, the corresponding wavelet transforms are inverted and the estimated image, having a higher PSNR, is extracted. To benchmark against the best possible denoising method three thresholding techniques have been compared. In this paper we have presented a more practical, implementation oriented work.
