The result is a net data compression since the difference, or error, image has low variance and entropy, and the low-pass filtered image may represented at reduced sample density. Further data compression is achieved by quantizing the difference image. These steps are then repeated to compress the low-pass image iteration of the process at appropriately expanded scales generates a pyramid data structure. The encoding process is equivalent to sampling the image with Laplacian operators of many scales. Thus, the code tends to enhance salient image features.

This paper surveys an emerging theory which goes by the name of ?compressive sampling? or ?compressed sensing,? and which says that this conventional wisdom is inaccurate. Perhaps surprisingly, it is possible to reconstruct images or signals of scientific interest accurately and sometimes even exactly from a number of samples which is far smaller than the desired resolution of the image/signal, e.g. the number of pixels in the image. It is believed that compressive sampling has far reaching implications.

Conceptually, the curvelet transform is a multiscale pyramid with many directions and positions at each length scale, and needle-shaped elements at fine scales. These elements have many useful geometric multiscale features that set them apart from classical multiscale representations such as wavelets. For instance, curvelets obey a parabolic scaling relation which says that at scale 2-j, each element has an envelope that is aligned along a ridge of length 2-j/2 and width 2-j. We prove that curvelets provide an essentially optimal representation of typical objects f that are C2 except for discontinuities along piecewise C2 curves. Such representations are nearly as sparse as if f were not singular and turn out to be far more sparse than the wavelet decomposition of the object.

Our coder for piecewise smooth functions uses surfprints, which wed surflets to wavelets for piecewise smooth approximation.

Key features of our algorithms are that they carefully control the potential growth in surflet parameters at higher smoothness and do not require explicit estimation of the discontinuity.

We propose an amplitude-phase representation of the DT-CWT which, among other things, offers a direct explanation for the improvement in the shift-invariance. The representation is based on the shifting action of the group of fractional Hilbert transform (fHT) operators, which extends the notion of arbitrary phase-shifts from sinusoids to finite-energy signals (wavelets in particular). In particular, we characterize the shiftability of the DT-CWT in terms of the shifting property of the fHTs. At the heart of the representation are certain fundamental invariances of the fHT group, namely that of translation, dilation, and norm, which play a decisive role in establishing the key properties of the transform. It turns out that these fundamental invariances are exclusive to this group. Next, by introducing a generalization of the Bedrosian theorem for the fHT operator, we derive an explicitly understanding of the shifting action of the fHT for the particular family of wavelets obtained through the modulation of lowpass functions (e.g., the Shannon and Gabor wavelet). This, in effect, links the corresponding dual-tree transform with the framework of windowed-Fourier analysis. Finally, we extend these ideas to the multidimensional setting by introducing a directional extension of the fHT, the fractional directional Hilbert transform.

Given a function of two variables, the algorithm produces a hierarchy of triangulations and piecewise polynomial approximations on these triangulations. The refinement procedure consists in bisecting a triangle T in a direction which is chosen so as to minimize the local approximation error in some prescribed norm between the approximated function and its piecewise polynomial approximation after T is bisected. The hierarchical structure allows us to derive various approximation tools such as multiresolution analysis, wavelet bases, adaptive triangulations based either on greedy or optimal CART trees, as well as a simple encoding of the corresponding triangulations. We give a general proof of convergence in the Lp norm of all these approximations. Numerical tests performed in the case of piecewise linear approximation of functions with analytic expressions or of numerical images illustrate the fact that the refinement procedure generates triangles with an optimal aspect ratio (which is dictated by the local Hessian of of the approximated function in case of C2 functions).}, file = {Cohen_A_2011_PREPRINT_ada_mabat.pdf:Cohen_A_2011_PREPRINT_ada_mabat.pdf:PDF}, owner = {duvall}, pdf = {Cohen_A_2010_j-math-comput_ada_mabat.pdf}, timestamp = {2010.02.16} } @INCOLLECTION{Cohen_A_2002_inbook_non-ssaip, author = {A.

The shift invariance stems from an adaptive relative shift of expansions in distinct resolution levels.

We use diffusion as a smoothing and scaling tool to enable coarse graining and multiscale analysis. Given a diffusion operator T on a manifold or a graph, with large powers of low rank, we present a general multiresolution construction for efficiently computing, representing and compressing Tt. This allows a direct multiscale computation, to high precision, of functions of the operator, notably the associated Green's function, in compressed form, and their fast application. Classes of operators for which these computations are fast include certain diffusion-like operators, in any dimension, on manifolds, graphs, and in non-homogeneous media. We use ideas related to the Fast Multipole Methods and to the wavelet analysis of Calderón-Zygmund and pseudo-differential operators, to numerically enforce the emergence of a natural hierarchical coarse graining of a manifold, graph or data set. For example for a body of text documents the construction leads to a directory structure at different levels of generalization. The dyadic powers of an operator can be used to induce a multiresolution analysis, as in classical Littlewood-Paley and wavelet theory: we construct, with efficient and stable algorithms, bases of orthonormal scaling functions and wavelets associated to this multiresolution analysis, together with the corresponding downsampling operators, and use them to compress the corresponding powers of the operator. While most of our discussion deals with symmetric operators and relates to localization to spectral bands, the symmetry of the operators and their spectral theory need not be considered, as the main assumption is reduction of the numerical ranks as we take powers of the operator.}, doi = {DOI: 10.1016/j.acha.2006.04.004}, file = {Coifman_R_2006_j-acha_diff_w.pdf:Coifman_R_2006_j-acha_diff_w.pdf:PDF}, keywords = {Multiresolution; Multiscale analysis; Wavelets; Wavelets on manifolds; Wavelets on graphs; Diffusion semigroups; Laplace?Beltrami operator; Fast Multipole Method; Matrix compression; Spectral graph theory}, owner = {duvall}, timestamp = {2011.04.08}, url = {http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6WB3-4K4PSX2-2/2/383131de381044772c31895fa7488ce3} } @ARTICLE{Coifman_R_1992_tit_ent_babbs, author = {Coifman, R.

However, in general, the problem of finding sparse representations must be unstable in the presence of noise. This paper establishes the possibility of stable recovery under a combination of sufficient sparsity and favorable structure of the overcomplete system. Considering an ideal underlying signal that has a sufficiently sparse representation, it is assumed that only a noisy version of it can be observed. Assuming further that the overcomplete system is incoherent, it is shown that the optimally sparse approximation to the noisy data differs from the optimally sparse decomposition of the ideal noiseless signal by at most a constant multiple of the noise level. As this optimal-sparsity method requires heavy (combinatorial) computational effort, approximation algorithms are considered. It is shown that similar stability is also available using the basis and the matching pursuit algorithms. Furthermore, it is shown that these methods result in sparse approximation of the noisy data that contains only terms also appearing in the unique sparsest representation of the ideal noiseless sparse signal.}, doi = {10.1109/TIT.2005.860430}, file = {Donoho_D_2006_j-ieee-tit_sta_rsorpn.pdf:Donoho_D_2006_j-ieee-tit_sta_rsorpn.pdf:PDF}, keywords = { Kruskal rank; greedy approximation algorithm; incoherent dictionary; matching pursuit; noisy data; optimal sparse decomposition; signal processing theory; sparse overcomplete representation; stable recovery; stepwise regression; superresolution signal; approximation theory; iterative methods; signal denoising; signal representation; time-frequency analysis;}, owner = {duvall}, timestamp = {2011.01.03} } @INCOLLECTION{Donoho_D_2003_incoll_dig_rtbtrf, author = {Donoho, D.

These convolution theorems are then used to develop a sampling theorem on the sphere. which reduces the calculation of Fourier transforms and convolutions of band-limited functions to discrete computations. We show how to perform these efficiently, starting with an O(n(log n)2) time algorithm for computing the Legendre transform of a function defined on the interval [-1,1] sampled at n points there. Theoretical and experimental results on the effects of finite precision arithmetic are presented. The Legendre transform algorithm is then generalized to obtain an algorithm for the Fourier transform, requiring O(n(log n)2) time, and an algorithm for its inverse in O(n1.5) time, where n is the number of points on the sphere at which the function is sampled. This improves the naive O(n2) bound, which is the best previously known.

The main topic is the development of a sophisticated generalization of the one-dimensional analytic signal to two dimensions. Motivated by the fundamental property of the latter, the invariance ? equivariance constraint, and by its relation to complex analysis and potential theory, a two-dimensional approach is derived. This method is called the monogenic signal and it is based on the Riesz transform instead of the Hilbert transform. By means of this linear approach it is possible to estimate the local orientation and the local phase of signals which are projections of one-dimensional functions to two dimensions. For general two-dimensional signals, however, the monogenic signal has to be further extended, yielding the structure multivector. The latter approach combines the ideas of the structure tensor and the quaternionic analytic signal. A rich feature set can be extracted from the structure multivector, which contains measures for local amplitudes, the local anisotropy, the local orientation, and two local phases. Both, the monogenic signal and the structure multivector are combined with an appropriate scale-space approach, resulting in generalized quadrature filters. Same as the monogenic signal, the applied scalespace approach is derived from the three-dimensional Laplace equation instead of the diffusion equation. Hence, the two-dimensional generalization of the analytic signal turns out to provide a whole new framework for low-level vision. Several applications are presented to show the efficiency and power of the theoretic considerations. Among these are methods for orientation estimation, edge and corner detection, stereo correspondence and disparity estimation, and adaptive smoothing.}, file = {Felsberg_M_2002_tr_low_lipsm.pdf:Felsberg_M_2002_tr_low_lipsm.pdf:PDF}, owner = {duvall}, pdf = {Felsberg_M_2002_tr_low_lipsm.pdf}, timestamp = {2009.07.12} } @ARTICLE{Fernandes_F_2005_tip_mul_mbcwt, author = {Fernandes, F.

We explore a local, bottom-up approach to image analysis. We develop operators to identify and classify image junctions, which contain important visual cues for identifying occlusion, transparency, and surface bends. Like the human visual system, we begin with the application of linear filters which are oriented in all possible directions. We develop an efficient way to create an oriented filter of arbitrary orientation by describing it as a linear combination of {\em basis filters}. This approach to oriented filtering, which we call {\em steerable filters}, offers advantages for analysis as well as computation. We design a variety of steerable filters, including steerable quadrature pairs, which measure local energy. We show applications of these filters in orientation and texture analysis, and image representation and enhancement. We develop methods based on steerable filters to study structures such as contours and junctions. We describe how to post-filter the energy measures in order to more efficiently analyze structures with multiple orientations. We introduce a new detector for contours, based on energy local maxima. We analyze contour phases at energy local maxima, and compare the results with the prediction of a simple model. Using these tools, we analyze junctions. Based on local oriented filters, we develop simple mechanisms which respond selectively to ``T'', ``L'', and ``X'' junctions. The T and X junctions may indicate occlusion and transparency, respectively. These mechanism show that detectors for important, low-level visual cues can be built out of oriented filters and energy measures, which resemble responses found in the visual cortex. We present a second approach to junction detection based on salient contours. We combine our contour detector with the structural saliency algorithm of Shashua and Ullman, which finds visually salient contours. To improve its descriptive power, we include a competitive mechanism in the algorithm. From the local configuration of saliencies, we form simple detectors which respond to cues for occlusion, transparency and surface bending. Using the saliency values and curve linking information, we can propagate this information along image contours. For both algorithms, we show successful results on simple synthetic and natural images. We show results for more complicated scenes and discuss the methods do not work, and why. Each algorithm uses only local calculations applied in parallel throughout the image, and assumes little prior information about the objects it expects to see.}, file = {Freeman_W_1992_phd_ste_flais.pdf:Freeman_W_1992_phd_ste_flais.pdf:PDF}, owner = {duvall}, pdf = {Freeman_W_1992_phd_ste_flais.pdf}, timestamp = {2009.10.14} } @ARTICLE{Freeman_W_1991_tpami_des_usf, author = {Freeman, W.

Steerable filters may be designed in quadrature pairs to allow adaptive control over phase as well as orientation. We show how to design and steer the filters, and present examples of their use in several tasks: the analysis of orientation and phase, angularly adaptive filtering, edge detection, and shape-from-shading.

In Part 1, a new method of analysing signals is presented in which time and frequency play symmetrical parts, and which contains "time analysis" and "frequency analysis" as special cases. It is shown that the information conveyed by a frequency band in a given time-interval can be analysed in various ways into the same number of elementary "quanta of information," each quantum conveying one numerical datum. In Part 2, this method is applied to the analysis of hearing sensations. It is shown on the basis of existing experimental material that in the band between 60 an 1000 c/s the human ear can discriminate very nearly every second datum of information, and that this efficiency of nearly 50 percent is independent of the duration of the signals in a remarkably wide interval. This fact, which cannot be explained by any mechanism in the inner ear, suggests a new phenomenon in nerve conduction. At frequencies above 1000 c/s the efficiency of discrimination falls off sharply, proving that sound reproductions which are far from faithful may be perceived by the ear as perfect, and that "condensed" methods of transmission and reproduction with improved waveband economy are possible in principle. In Part 3, suggestions are discussed for compresse transmission and reproduction of speech or music, and the first experimental results obtained with one of these methods are described.}, file = {Gabor_D_1946_j-iee_the_c.pdf:Gabor_D_1946_j-iee_the_c.pdf:PDF}, keywords = {time analysis, frequency analysis, Fourier Analysis,}, owner = {duvall}, pdf = {Gabor_D_1946_j-iee_the_c.pdf}, timestamp = {2009.11.01} } @INPROCEEDINGS{Gagnon_L_1995_p-embs_sha_edmcsdw, author = {Gagnon, L. and Lina, J.-M. and Goulard, B.}, title = {Sharpening Enhancement of Digitized Mammograms with Complex Symmetric {Daubechies} Wavelets}, booktitle = {Proc.

One basic assumption is necessary: synthesis followed by analysis yields the identity operator, meaning that no information is lost by these two consecutive steps. Several examples of pyramid decomposition schemes are shown to be instances of the proposed theory: a particular class of linear pyramids, morphological skeleton decompositions, the morphological Haar pyramid, median pyramids, etc. Furthermore, the paper makes a distinction between single-scale and multiscale decomposition schemes, i.e., schemes without or with sample reduction.

The aim of this paper, which is a sequel to a previous paper devoted exclusively to the pyramid transform, is to present an axiomatic framework encompassing most existing linear and nonlinear wavelet decompositions.

A general and flexible approach for the construction of nonlinear (morphological) wavelets is provided by the lifting scheme.

The innovative step is the definition of a discrete 3-D transform with the discrete analytical geometry theory by the construction of 3-D discrete analytical lines in the Fourier domain. We propose two types of 3-D discrete lines: 3-D discrete radial lines going through the origin defined from their orthogonal projections and 3-D planes covered with 2-D discrete line segments. These discrete analytical lines have a parameter called arithmetical thickness, allowing us to define a 3-D DART adapted to a specific application. Indeed, the 3-D DART representation is not orthogonal, It is associated with a flexible redundancy factor. The 3-D DART has a very simple forward/inverse algorithm that provides an exact reconstruction without any iterative method. In order to illustrate the potentiality of this new discrete transform, we apply the 3-D DART and its extension to the Local-DART (with smooth windowing) to the denoising of 3-D image and color video.

However, real images present also a set of details less oriented and more isotropic, like corners, spots, texture components, etc. This paper develops an adaptive representation for all these image elements, ranging from highly directional ones to fully isotropic ones.

We show that normal mesh subdivision is an efficient triangulation, thanks to its local adaptivity to the discontinuities. Indeed, we prove that, within a certain function class, the normal mesh representation has an optimal asymptotic error decay rate as the number of terms in the representation grows. This function class is the so-called horizon class comprising constant regions separated by smooth discontinuities,where the line of discontinuity is C2 continuous. This optimal decay rate is possible because normal meshes automatically generate a polyline (piecewise linear) approximation of each discontinuity, unlike the blocky piecewise constant approximation of tensor product wavelets. In this way, the proposed nonlinear multiscale normal mesh decomposition is an anisotropic representation of the 2-d function.

Starting from a set of natural requirements on the rst processing stages of a visual system, the visual front end, an axiomatic derivation is given of how a multi-scale representation of derivative approximations can be constructed from a discrete signal, so that it possesses an algebraic structure similar to that possessed by the derivatives of the traditional scale-space representation in the continuous domain. A family of kernels is derived which constitute discrete analogues to the continuous Gaussian derivatives. The representation has theoretical advantages to other discretizations of the scalespace theory in the sense that operators which commute before discretization commute after discretization. Some computational implications of this are that derivative approximations can be computed directly from smoothed data, and that this will give exactly the same result as convolution with the corresponding derivative approximation kernel. Moreover, a number of normalization conditions are automatically satis ed. The proposed methodology leads to a conceptually very simple scheme of computations for multi-scale low-level feature extraction, consisting of four basic steps; (i) large support convolution smoothing, (ii) small support di erence computations, (iii) point operations for computing di erential geometric entities, and (iv) nearest neighbour op- erations for feature detection.

Silesia, Sosnowiec, Poland}, year = {2005}, abstract = {In recent years the problem of efficient image coding and processing has gained popularity and is of great interest both for computer scientists and mathematicians. Image coding which tends to obtain efficient compression, especially progressive one, allows to save time when sending images in a network and disc space during storage. On the other hand image processing may be used for image quality improvement as well as extraction of specific features. So, efficient representation of an image plays a crucial role in computer graphics because it forms the foundation for image coding and processing. Recently, it has become evident that separable transforms, as for example wavelet ones, are not the best ones in image representation due to their disability of catching line discontinuities present in images in the form of edges. What follows they are blind for image geometry. To overcome that problem the competitive theory of geometrical wavelets has arisen recently. As shown in literature, the use of geometrical wavelets, thanks to better approximations, is superior to nearly all of the classical wavelet based applications of image coding (including compression) and processing. Investigations of images may not be carried out without the relation to Human Visual System. Recent researches in psychology of vision have proven that the amount of information which is gathered by receptors of the retina in the eye is far larger than dozens of bits per second which are transmitted to the brain from the eye. Additionally, recent investigations in neuropsychology give us information what kinds of signals are perceived by brain in first order and which ones are less important. Two main observations follow from the researches. The first one is that, basing on better image approximations, it is possible to reduce the amount of data used in representation. The second one makes us realize that less important information, which does not reach the brain, may be removed from an image without corruption of the visual quality of an image. So two practical questions arise. How images can be approximated better, which will lead to improving its coding and processing properties? And how the most important information, from the Human Visual System point of view, may be extracted from an image in an automatic way? In this dissertation it has tried to answer both these questions. Thus firstly, the generalization of wedgelets (the class of geometrical wavelets) has been proposed and it has been shown that thanks to better approximations of images they improve the properties of image coding and processing in comparison with classical wedgelets. Especially, the use of such generalized wedgelets tends to produce more sparse representation of an image. It has been additionally shown that generalized wedgelets give better results in noisy image processing in comparison with other standard methods. Secondly, the new application of geometrical wavelets in extraction of different classes of signals with different importance for perception by the human brain has been proposed. With the help of such wavelets (especially beamlets) an operator has been defined, which extracts such signals quite automatically. Thanks to the geometrical approach, such solution is competitive in comparison with the other ones described in literature. The results presented in the dissertation appear to improve the results presented so far in literature, which has been confirmed both theoretically and experimentally.}, file = {Lisowska_A_2005_phd_geo_wgdicp.pdf:Lisowska_A_2005_phd_geo_wgdicp.pdf:PDF}, owner = {duvall}, pdf = {Lisowska_A_2005_phd_geo_wgdicp.pdf}, timestamp = {2009.10.13} } @ARTICLE{Lounsbery_M_1997_j-acm-tog_mul_asatt, author = {M.

Though some critically sampled transforms have also been proposed in the past, they can only provide limited directionality or limited flexibility in the frequency decomposition. In this paper, we propose a filter bank structure achieving a nonredundant multiresolution and multidirectional expansion of images. It can be seen as a critically sampled version of the original contourlet transform (hence the name CRISP-contourets) in the sense that the corresponding frequency decomposition is similar to that of contourlets, which divides the whole spectrum both angularly and radially. However, instead of performing the multiscale and directional decomposition steps separately as is done in contourlets, the key idea here is to use a combined iterated nonseparable filter bank for both steps.

In 3-D, the ideal passbands of the proposed NDFB are rectangular-based pyramids radiating out from the origin at different orientations and tiling the entire frequency space.

PTC achieves a rate vs. distortion performance that is comparable (within 2%) to that of the state-of-the-art SPIHT (set partitioning in hierarchical trees) codec. However, thanks to the use of the LBT, the space-frequency decomposition step in PTC reduces the number of multiplications per pixel by a factor of 2.7, and the number of additions by about 15%, when compared to the fastest possible implementation of the ?9/7? wavelet transform via lifting.

The analysis proceeds in two parts. (1) Intensity changes, which occur in a natural image over a wide range of scales, are detected separately at different scales. An appropriate filter for this purpose at a given scale is found to be the second derivative of a Gaussian, and it is shown that, provided some simple conditions are satisfied, these primary filters need not be orientation-dependent. Thus, intensity changes at a given scale are best detected by finding the zero values of $\nabla ^{2}$G(x, y)* I(x, y)$ for image I, where $G(x, y)$ is a two-dimensional Gaussian distribution and $\nabla ^{2}$ is the Laplacian. The intensity changes thus discovered in each of the channels are then represented by oriented primitives called zero-crossing segments, and evidence is given that this representation is complete. (2) Intensity changes in images arise from surface discontinuities or from reflectance or illumination boundaries, and these all have the property that they are spatially localized. Because of this, the zero-crossing segments from the different channels are not independent, and rules are deduced for combining them into a description of the image. This description is called the raw primal sketch. The theory explains several basic psychophysical findings, and the operation of forming oriented zero-crossing segments from the output of centre-surround $\nabla ^{2}$G filters acting on the image forms the basis for a physiological model of simple cells (see Marr & Ullman 1979).}, doi = {10.1098/rspb.1980.0020}, file = {Marr_D_1980_j-proc-roy-soc-b_the_ed.pdf:Marr_D_1980_j-proc-roy-soc-b_the_ed.pdf:PDF}, owner = {duvall}, timestamp = {2010.01.13} } @ARTICLE{Marr_D_1979_j-roy-stat-soc-b_com_thsv, author = {D.

A multiresolution representation can be obtained by repeating the same decomposition at the lowpass band. The permissible property of the filter banks in cases of being implemented by a tree structure and by direct implementation is discussed. The result shows that only one DFB in the class, called the uniform quincunx DFB (uqDFB), satisfies the permissible property when being implemented directly without using the tree structure. The nonuniform quincunx DFB (nuqDFB) is then constructed from the uqDFB by merging its two lowpass subbands. An alternative structure for constructing the nuqDFB is presented. The new structure, while yielding the same frequency partitioning, allows the DFB to be realized with complexity comparable to that of the separable wavelet filter bank.

Of particular interest is the case when the code is overcomplete--i.e., when the number of code elements is greater than the effective dimensionality of the input space.

Most wavelet transform algorithms compute sampled coefficients of the continuous wavelet transform using the filter bank structure of the discrete wavelet transform. Although this general method is already efficient, it is shown that noticeable computational savings can be obtained by applying known fast convolution techniques, such as the FFT (fast Fourier transform), in a suitable manner. The modified algorithms are termed `fast' because of their ability to reduce the computational complexity per computed coefficient from L to log L (within a small constant factor) for large filter lengths L.

Wavelet based algorithms define the state-of-the-art for applications including image coding (JPEG-2000), restoration, and segmentation. Despite their success, wavelets have significant shortcomings in their treatment of edges. Wavelets do not parsimoniously capture even the simplest geometrical structure in images, and wavelet based processing algorithms often produce images with ringing around the edges. As a first step towards accounting for this structure, we will show how to explicitly capture the geometric regularity of contours in cartoon images using the wedgelet representation and a multiscale geometry model. The wedgelet representation builds up an image out of simple piecewise constant functions with linear discontinuities. We will show how the geometry model, by putting a joint distribution on the orientations of the linear discontinuities, allows us to weigh several factors when choosing the wedgelet representation: the error between the representation and the original image, the parsimony of the representation, and whether the wedgelets in the representation form "natural" geometrical structures. We will analyze a simple wedgelet coder based on these principles, and show that it has optimal asymptotic performance for simple cartoon images. Next, we turn our attention to piecewise smooth images; images that are smooth away from a smooth contour. Using a representation composed of wavelets and wedgeprints (wedgelets projected into the wavelet domain), we develop a quadtree based prototype coder whose rate-distortion performance is asymptotically near-optimal. We use these ideas to implement a full-scale image coder that outperforms JPEG-2000 both in peak signal to noise ratio (by 1--1.5dB at low bitrates) and visually. Finally, we shift our focus to building a statistical image model directly in the wavelet domain. For applications other than compression, the approximate shift-invariance and directional selectivity of the slightly redundant complex wavelet transform make it particularly well-suited for modeling singularity structure. Around edges in images, complex wavelet coefficients behave very predictably, exhibiting dependencies that we will exploit using a hidden Markov tree model. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the complex wavelet model with several applications: image denoising, multiscale segmentation, and feature extraction.}, file = {Romberg_J_2003_phd_mul_gip.pdf:Romberg_J_2003_phd_mul_gip.pdf:PDF}, owner = {duvall}, timestamp = {2010.12.20} } @ARTICLE{Rosenfeld_A_2001_j-entcs_dig_s, author = {A.

The embedded code represents a sequence of binary decisions that distinguish an image from the "null" image. Using an embedded coding algorithm, an encoder can terminate the encoding at any point thereby allowing a target rate or target distortion metric to be met exactly. Also, given a bit stream, the decoder can cease decoding at any point in the bit stream and still produce exactly the same image that would have been encoded at the bit rate corresponding to the truncated bit stream. In addition to producing a fully embedded bit stream, the EZW consistently produces compression results that are competitive with virtually all known compression algorithms on standard test images. Yet this performance is achieved with a technique that requires absolutely no training, no pre-stored tables or codebooks, and requires no prior knowledge of the image source. The EZW algorithm is based on four key concepts: (1) a discrete wavelet transform or hierarchical subband decomposition, (2) prediction of the absence of significant information across scales by exploiting the self-similarity inherent in images, (3) entropy-coded successive-approximation quantization, and (4) universal lossless data compression which is achieved via adaptive arithmetic coding}, doi = {10.1109/78.258085}, file = {Shapiro_J_1993_j-ieee-tsp_emb_iczwc.pdf:Shapiro_J_1993_j-ieee-tsp_emb_iczwc.pdf:PDF}, owner = {duvall}, pdf = {Shapiro_J_1993_j-ieee-tsp_emb_iczwc.pdf}, timestamp = {2007.06.07} } @ARTICLE{Shen_L_2006_tsp_ima_dtf, author = {Shen, L. and Papadakis, M. and Kakadiaris, I.

In fact, the h trow algorithm, originally devised as a computationally efficient implementation, is more properly viewed as a nonorthonormal multiresolution algorithm for which the discrete wavelet transform is exact. Moreover, it is shown that the commonly used Lagrange i~ trous filters are in one-to-one correspondence with the convolutional squares of the Daubechies filters for orthonormal wavelets of compact support. A systematic framework for the discrete wavelet transform is provided, and conditions are derived under which it computes the continuous wavelet transform exactly.

Wavelet transforms are also unstable with respect to dilations of the input signal, and in two dimensions, rotations of the input signal. We formalize these problems by defining a type of translation invariance that we call "shiftability". In the spatial domain, shiftability corresponds to a lack of aliasing; thus, the conditions under which the property holds are specified by the sampling theorem. Shiftability may also be considered in the context of other domains, particularly orientation and scale. We explore ``jointly shiftable'' transforms that are simultaneously shiftable in more than one domain. Two examples of jointly shiftable transforms are designed and implemented: a one-dimensional transform that is jointly shiftable in position and scale, and a two-dimensional transform that is jointly shiftable in position and orientation.

Our implementations offer exact reconstruction, stability against perturbations, ease of implementation, and low computational complexity. A central tool is Fourier-domain computation of an approximate digital Radon transform. We introduce a very simple interpolation in the Fourier space which takes Cartesian samples and yields samples on a rectopolar grid, which is a pseudo-polar sampling set based on a concentric squares geometry. Despite the crudeness of our interpolation, the visual performance is surprisingly good. Our ridgelet transform applies to the Radon transform a special overcomplete wavelet pyramid whose wavelets have compact support in the frequency domain. Our curvelet transform uses our ridgelet transform as a component step, and implements curvelet subbands using a filter bank of a` trous wavelet filters. Our philosophy throughout is that transforms should be overcomplete, rather than critically sampled. We apply these digital transforms to the denoising of some standard images embedded in white noise. In the tests reported here, simple thresholding of the curvelet coefficients is very competitive with "state of the art" techniques based on wavelets, including thresholding of decimated or undecimated wavelet transforms and also including tree-based Bayesian posterior mean methods. Moreover, the curvelet reconstructions exhibit higher perceptual quality than wavelet-based reconstructions, offering visually sharper images and, in particular, higher quality recovery of edges and of faint linear and curvilinear features.

The backbone of our construction is a primal isotropic wavelet frame that provides the multiresolution decomposition of the signal. The steerable wavelets are obtained by applying a one-to-many mapping (Nth-order generalized Riesz transform) to the primal ones. The shaping of the steerable wavelets is controlled by an M × M unitary matrix (where M is the number of wavelet channels) that can be selected arbitrarily; this allows for a much wider range of solutions than the traditional equiangular configuration (steerable pyramid). We give a complete functional description of these generalized wavelet transforms and derive their steering equations.

The Riesz operator is also steerable in the sense that it give access to the Hilbert transform of the signal along any orientation. Having set those foundations, we specify a primary polyharmonic spline wavelet basis of $L_2({BBR}^2)$ that involves a single Mexican-hat-like mother wavelet (Laplacian of a B-spline). The important point is that our primary wavelets are quasi-isotropic: they behave like multiscale versions of the fractional Laplace operator from which they are derived, which ensures steerability. We propose to pair these real-valued basis functions with their complex Riesz counterparts to specify a multiresolution monogenic signal analysis. This yields a representation where each wavelet index is associated with a local orientation, an amplitude and a phase.

In this paper, we propose a framework for improved wavelet analysis based on an appropriate pairing of a wavelet basis with a mildly redundant version of itself (frame). The processing is accomplished in four steps: 1) redundant wavelet analysis, 2) wavelet-domain processing, 3) projection of the results onto the wavelet basis, and 4) reconstruction of the signal from its nonredundant wavelet expansion. The wavelet analysis is pyramid-like and is obtained by simple modification of Mallat's filterbank algorithm (e.g., suppression of the down-sampling in the wavelet channels only). The key component of the method is the subband regression filter (Step 3) which computes a wavelet expansion that is maximally consistent in the least squares sense with the redundant wavelet analysis. We demonstrate that this approach significantly improves the performance of soft-threshold wavelet denoising with a moderate increase in computational cost.

In the present work, the non-Gaussianity of the WMAP temperature data of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is analyzed in terms of the first four moments of the statistically isotropic random fields associated with these local morphological measures, at wavelet scales corresponding to angular sizes between 27.5 arcminutes and 30 degrees on the celestial sphere. While no detection is made neither in the orientation analysis nor in the elongation analysis, a strong detection is made in the excess kurtosis of the signed-intensity of the WMAP data. The non-Gaussianity is observed with a significance level below 0.5% at a wavelet scale corresponding to an angular size around 10 degrees, and confirmed at neighbour scales. This supports a previous detection of an excess of kurtosis in the wavelet coefficient of the WMAP data with the axisymmetric Mexican hat wavelet (Vielva et al. 2004). Instrumental noise and foreground emissions are not likely to be at the origin of the excess of kurtosis. Large-scale modulations of the CMB related to some unknown systematics are rejected as possible origins of the detection. The observed non-Gaussianity may therefore probably be imputed to the CMB itself, thereby questioning the basic inflationary scenario upon which the present concordance cosmological model relies. Taking the CMB temperature angular power spectrum of the concordance cosmological model at face value, further analysis also suggests that this non-Gaussianity is not confined to the directions on the celestial sphere with an anomalous signed-intensity.}, file = {Wiaux_Y_2008_j-mon-not-roy-astron-soc_non_galmmwmapd-preprint.pdf:Wiaux_Y_2008_j-mon-not-roy-astron-soc_non_galmmwmapd-preprint.pdf:PDF}, owner = {duvall}, publisher = {London: Priestley and Weale, 1833-}, timestamp = {2011.01.05} } @MISC{Wickerhauser_M_1991_misc_lec_nwp, author = {Wickerhauser, M.

This paper introduces platelets, localized functions at various scales, locations, and orientations that produce piecewise linear image approximations, and a new multiscale image decomposition based on these functions. Platelets are well suited for approximating images consisting of smooth regions separated by smooth boundaries. For smoothness measured in certain Holder classes, it is shown that the error of m-term platelet approximations can decay significantly faster than that of m-term approximations in terms of sinusoids, wavelets, or wedgelets. This suggests that platelets may outperform existing techniques for image denoising and reconstruction. Fast, platelet-based, maximum penalized likelihood methods for photon-limited image denoising, deblurring and tomographic reconstruction problems are developed. Because platelet decompositions of Poisson distributed images are tractable and computationally efficient, existing image reconstruction methods based on expectation-maximization type algorithms can be easily enhanced with platelet techniques.

In this paper, we prove that a linear-phase complex orthogonal wavelet does not exist. We study the implications of symmetry and linear phase for both complex and real-valued orthogonal wavelet bases. As a byproduct, we propose a method to obtain a complex orthogonal wavelet basis having the symmetry property and approximately linear phase. The numerical analysis of the phase response of various complex and real Daubechies wavelets is given. Both real and complex-symmetric orthogonal wavelet can only have symmetric amplitude spectra. It is often desired to have asymmetric amplitude spectra for processing general complex signals. Therefore, we propose a method to design general complex orthogonal perfect reconstruct filter banks (PRFBs) by a parameterization scheme. Design examples are given.

Wavelets, introduced 20 years ago by Morlet and Grossmann and developed very rapidly during the 1980's and 1990's, has created a common link between computational mathematics and other disciplines of science and engineering. Classical wavelets have provided effective and efficient mathematical tools for time-frequency analysis which enhances and replaces the Fourier approach. However, with the current advances in science and technology, there is an immediate need to extend wavelet mathematical tools as well. "Beyond Wavelets" presents a list of ideas and mathematical foundations for such extensions, including: continuous and digital ridgelets, brushlets, steerable wavelet packets, contourlets, eno-wavelets, spline-wavelet frames, and quasi-affine wavelets. Wavelet subband algorithms are extended to pyramidal directional and nonuniform filter banks. In addition, this volume includes a method for tomographic reconstruction using a mechanical image model and a statistical study for independent adaptive signal representation. Investigators already familiar with wavelet methods from areas such as engineering, statistics, and mathematics will benefit by owning this volume.
