Logarithmic multiresolution analysis
Laurent Navarro, Michel Jourlin, Guy Courbebaisse · 2015
Recently, a logarithmic image processing model called Symmetric Logarithmic Image Processing (S-LIP) has been investigated in the framework of the multiresolution analysis (MRA) performed by wavelet transform. The S-LIP model is an extension of the Logarithmic Image Processing (LIP) model. The motivation of this work is to implement classical wavelet applications in the S-LIP framework. The underlying idea is to take advantage of both the multiscale analysis performed by the wavelet transform and the logarithmic processing of the pixels' intensity by the S-LIP model. The S-LIP wavelet transform is introduced and applied to automatic denoising in order to highlight its intrinsic characteristics. As an illustration, signal-to-Noise Ratios for both the linear wavelet transform and S-LIP wavelet transform are calculated for different levels of Gaussian, Poisson, Speckle and salt-and-pepper noises.
