In this paper, we propose a weights-based image demosaicking algorithm which is based on the Bayer pattern color filter array (CFA). When reconstructing the missing G components, the proposed algorithm uses weights based on posteriori gradients to mitigate color artifacts and distortions. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm makes full use of the correlation of R–B channels in high frequency when interpolating R/B values at B/R positions. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is superior to previous similar algorithms in composite peak signal-to-noise ratio (CPSNR) and subjective visual effect. The biggest advantage of the proposed algorithm is the use of posteriori gradients and the correlation of R–B channels in high frequency.

The image often contains noises due to several factors such as a problem in devices or due to an environmental problem etc. Noise is mainly undesired information, which degrades the quality of the picture. Therefore, image denoising method is adopted to remove the noises from the degraded image which in turn improve the quality of the image. In this paper, image denoising has been done by wavelet transform using Visu thresholding techniques for different wavelet families. PSNR (Peak signal to noise ratio) and RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) value is also calculated for different wavelet families.

Dyadic Curvelet transform (DClet) is proposed as a tool for image processing and computer vision. It is an extended curvelet transform that solves the problem of conventional curvelet, of decomposition into components at different scales. It provides simplicity, dyadic scales, and absence of redundancy for analysis and synthesis objects with discontinuities along curves, i.e., edges via directional basis functions. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by removing Gaussian, Speckles, and Random noises from different noisy standard images. Average 26.71 dB Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) compared to 25.87 dB via the wavelet transform is evidence that the DClet outperforms the wavelet transform for removing noise. The proposed method is robust, which makes it suitable for biomedical applications. It is a candidate for gray and color image enhancement and applicable for compression or efficient coding in which critical sampling might be relevant.

Wavelet transform is widely used and has good effect on image denoising. Wavelet transform has unique advantages in dealing with the smooth area of image but is not so perfect in high frequency areas such as the edges. However, curvelet transform can supply this gap when dealing with the high frequency areas because of the characteristic of anisotropy. In this paper, we proposed a new method which is based on the combination of wavelet transform and curvelet transform. Firstly, we detected the edges of the noisy-image using wavelet transform. Based on the edges we divided the image into two parts: the smoothness and the edges. Then, we used different transform methods to dispose different areas of the image, wavelet threshold denoising is used in smoothness while FDCT denoising is used in edges. Experimental results showed that we could get better visual effect and higher PSNR, which indicated that the proposed method is better than using wavelet transform or curvelet transform respectively.

This paper proposed a new image de-noising algorithm based on wavelet transform. Firstly, the algorithm made wavelet transform on the image, and then using the GGD described the wavelet coefficients of each sub band. Calculate the similarity of direction of horizontal, vertical and diagonal. Then adjust the coefficients according to similarity function. The experiment results showed that the algorithm not only remove the noise from the image but can protect the edge information of the image. The processing result had better visual effect and high signal to noise ratio.

Background: In this paper, we propose a secure image watermarking technique which is applied to grayscale and color images. It consists in applying the SVD (Singular Value Decomposition) in the Lifting Wavelet Transform domain for embedding a speech image (the watermark) into the host image. Methods: It also uses signature in the embedding and extraction steps. Its performance is justified by the computation of PSNR (Pick Signal to Noise Ratio), SSIM (Structural Similarity), SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio), SegSNR (Segmental SNR) and PESQ (Perceptual Evaluation Speech Quality). Results: The PSNR and SSIM are used for evaluating the perceptual quality of the watermarked image compared to the original image. The SNR, SegSNR and PESQ are used for evaluating the perceptual quality of the reconstructed or extracted speech signal compared to the original speech signal. Conclusion: The Results obtained from computation of PSNR, SSIM, SNR, SegSNR and PESQ show the performance of the proposed technique.


This paper aims in presenting a thorough comparison of performance and usefulness of multi-resolution based de-noising technique. Multi-resolution based image denoising techniques overcome the limitation of Fourier, spatial, as well as, purely frequency based techniques, as it provides the information of 2-Dimensional (2-D) signal at different levels and scales, which is desirable for image de-noising. The multiresolution based de-noising techniques, namely, Contourlet Transform (CT), Non Sub-sampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT), Stationary Wavelet Transform (SWT) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), have been selected for the de-noising of camera images. Further, the performance of different denosing techniques have been compared in terms of different noise variances, thresholding techniques and by using well defined metrics, such as Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). Analysis of result shows that shift-invariant NSCT technique outperforms the CT, SWT and DWT based de-noising techniques in terms of qualititaive and quantitative objective evaluation


The research constitutes a distinctive technique of steganography of image. The procedure used for the study is Fractional Random Wavelet Transform (FRWT). The contrast between wavelet transform and the aforementioned FRWT is that it comprises of all the benefits and features of the wavelet transform but with additional highlights like randomness and partial fractional value put up into it. As a consequence of the fractional value and the randomness, the algorithm will give power and a rise in the surveillance layers for steganography. The stegano image will be acquired after administrating the algorithm which contains not only the coated image but also the concealed image. Despite the overlapping of two images, any diminution in the grade of the image is not perceived. Through this steganographic process, we endeavor for expansion in surveillance and magnitude as well. After running the algorithm, various variables like Mean Square Error (MSE) and Peak Signal to Noise ratio (PSNR) are deliberated. Through the intended algorithm, a rise in the power and imperceptibility is perceived and it can also support diverse modification such as scaling, translation and rotation with algorithms which previously prevailed. The irrefutable outcome demonstrated that the algorithm which is being suggested is indeed efficacious.
