Abstract

In this thesis, we propose the novel adaptive wavelet filter bank structures that are used to obtain efficient representations of the analyzed images. We present the lifting scheme structures for building adaptive wavelet decompositions based on the nonseparable quincunx sampling scheme. The resulting wavelet decompositions are adaptive to the local properties of the analyzed image. Despite the introduced adaptation, a desired number of vanishing moments is still retained. The proposed... More adaptation is performed in order to minimize the energy of detail coefficients on a neighborhood of each pixel of the analyzed image. The appropriate neighborhood is determined for each pixel separately by using the intersection of confidence intervals (ICI) rule. The application of the ICI rule improves the estimation of the filter bank parameters and makes it more robust to noise. The image denoising results are presented for both synthetic and real-world images. It is shown that the adaptive wavelet decompositions outperform the existing fixed decompositions in terms of denoising quality of images that contain periodic components, and in general they give more compact image representations.

Abstract (croatian)

U ovoj disertaciji predlažemo nove adaptivne valićne filtarske strukture koje se koriste za dobivanje efikasnih reprezentacija analiziranih slika. U radu prikazujemo filtarske slogove temeljene na shemi podizanja za konstrukciju adaptivnih valićnih razlaganja zasnovanih na neseparabilnom quincunx uzorkovanju. Rezultirajuća valićna razlaganja su prilagođena lokalnim svojstvima analizirane slike. Unatoč uvedenoj adaptaciji, zadržan je željeni broj nul-momenata pripadajućihih vali ćnih... More funkcija. Adaptacija se vrši sa ciljem minimizacije koeficijenata detalja na okolini svakog slikovnog elementa. Odabir odgovarajuće okoline za svaki slikovni element vrši se korištenjem metode presjecišta invervala pouzdanosti. Primjena dotične metode poboljšava adaptaciju parametara filtarskog sloga i čini je robusnijom na šum. Rezultati uklanjanja šuma iz slike prikazani su za primjere sintetičkih kao i realnih slika. Pokazano je da dobivena adaptivna valićna razlaganja nadmašuju postojeća fiksna razlaganja s obzirom na kvalitetu uklanjanja šuma iz slika koje sadrže periodičke komponente, te općenito daju kompaktniji zapis slike.
