Recently, there have been many types of wavelet transformations proposed to remove the noise from an signal and image data By using feature of seperating the noise from the original image the Wavelet transformations can retain the edges of the images The wavelet analysis is complete when the basis function is coded into the wavelet This Thesis describes a method of using wavelet transformation to remove the noise from an image signal. Although the wavelet transformation proposed by Donoho and Johnstone works, it does not reliably remove all the noise from the images. So this thesis propose an algorithm that selected Wavelet Shrinkgae and threshold according to the features of bands and amplitude of noise.

In this paper. we Propose the noise suppressor with the Perceptual model and wavelet packet transform. The objective is to enhance speech corrupted colored or non-stationary noise. If corrupted noise is colored. subband approach would be more efficient than whole band one. To avoid serious residual noise and speech distortion, we must adjust the Wavelet Coefficient Threshold (WCT). In this Paper. the subband is designed matching with the critical band and WCT is adapted noise masking threshold (NMT) and segmental signal to noise ratio (seg_SNR). Consequently. it has similar Performance with EVRC in PESQ-MOS. But it's better than wavelet packet transform using universal threshold about 0.289 in PESQ-MOS. The important thing is that it's more useful than EVRC in coded speech. In coded speech. PESQ-MOS is higher than EVRC about 0.23.

This paper proposes a new noise suppression method using the Wavelet transform analysis. The noise suppressor using the Wavelet transform shows the more effective advantages in a babble noise than one using the short-time Fourier transform. We designed a new channel structure based on spectral subtraction of Wavelet transform coefficients and used the Wavelet mask pattern with more higher time resolution in high frequency. It showed a good adaptation capability for babble noise with a non-stationary property. To evaluate the performance of proposed noise canceller, the informal subjective listening tests (Mos tests) were performed in background noise environments (car noise, street noise, babble noise) of mobile communication. The proposed noise suppression algorithm showed about MOS 0.2 performance improvements than the suppression algorithm of EVRC in informal listening tests. The noise reduction by the proposed method was shown in spectrogram of speech signal.

웨이블릿 변환이 소개된 후, 웨이블릿 임계치 기법이 신호의 잡음제거에 중요한 효과를 가져왔다. 그러나 웨이블릿 임계치 잡음제거 기법 역시 불연속점 주위에서 의사깁스 현상을 일으키는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문은 웨이블릿 발자국 흔적(Wavelet Footprints) 알고리즘을 소개한다. 웨이블릿의 시간영역에서의 특이점들에 의해 남겨진 흔적이라는 의미를 가지는 발자국 흔적의 새로운 개념을 도입하여 불연속 주위의 의사 깁스 현상을 개선하고자 한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 더 일반적인 신호들로 확장되어지고, 신호의 잡음제거와 같은 문제에 효과적인 해법을 제시 할 수 있다.

A binary decision model which is used to denoising has demerits to measure the precise ratio of signal to noise because of only a binary classification. To supplement these demerits, complex statistical model and undecimated wavelet transform are generally exploited. In this paper, we propose a noise reduction method using a multi-level decision model for measuring the ratio of noise in noisy image. The propose method achieves good denoising performance with orthogonal wavelet transform because the ratio of signal to noise can be calculated to multi-valued form. In simulation results, the proposed denoising method outperforms 0.1dB in the PSNR sense than the state of art denoising algorithms using orthogonal wavelet transform.

The wavelet shrinkage is a technique that reduces the wavelet coefficients to minimize the MSE(Mean Square Error) between the signal and the noisy signal by making use of the threshold determined by the variance of the wavelet coefficients. In this paper, by using the monotonic transform and the power of wavelet subbands, new thresholds applicable to the high and the low frequency wavelet bands are proposed, and the thresholds are applied to the ST(soft-threshold) technique to denoise on image signals with additive Gaussian noise. And the results of PSNRs are compared with the results obtained by the VisuShrink technique and those of [15]. The results shows the validity of this technique.

웨이블릿 변환 영역에서 잡음제거 방법 중 Visushrink 추정에 사용되는 경계값은 측정 데이터 수와 잡음편차에 비례하는 것으로 알려져 있으나 잡음편차가 알려지지 않은 경우 Donoho는 웨이블릿 변환 영역의 최고대역에서 잡음편차 추정 방법을 제시하였다. 본 논문에서는 분산이 데이터 수에 반비례함을 이용하여 threshold 기법을 이용하여 잡음제거 시 계산량을 감소를 목적으로 차 신호를 이용하여 측정데이터 수를 줄인 후 영상신호의 가우시안 잡음을 soft threshold 기법을 적용하고 이 기법의 실용성을 밝혔다.

In case of wavelet coefficients have correlation, in image signal denoising using wavelet shrinkage denoising method, the denoising effect for the image signal is reduced when the wavelet shrinkage denoising method is used. The coefficients of multiwavelet transform have correlation by pre-filters. To solve the degradation problem in multiwavelet transform, V Sterela suggested a new pre-filter for the Universal threshold or weighting factors to the threshold. In this paper, to improve the denoising effect in the multiwavelet transform, the coefficient normalizing method that the coefficient are divided by estimated noise deviation is adopted to the transformed multiwavelet coefficients in the course of wavelet shrinkage technique. And the thresholds of universal, SURE and GCV are estimated using normalized coefficients and tried to denoise by the wavelet shrinkage technique. We compared PSNRs of denoised images for each thresholds and confirmed the efficiency of the proposed method.

In this paper, we study the technique to improve the performance of the aerial images taken by UAV using daubechies stationary wavelet transform. When aerial images taken by UAV were damaged by gaussian noise very commonly applied, the experiment for image performance improvement was performed. It was known that stationary wavelet transform is the transferring solution to the problem occurred by down sampling from DWT also more efficient to remove noise than DWT. Also haar wavelet is discontinuous function so not efficient for smooth signal and image processing. Therefore, this study is confirmed that the noise can be removed by daubechies stationary wavelet and the performance is improved by haar stationary wavelet.

Noisy data are often fitted using a smoothing parameter, controlling the importance of two objectives that are opposite to a certain extent. One of these two is smoothness and the other is closeness to the input data. The optimal value of this parameter minimizes the error of the result. This optimum cannot be found exactly, simply because the exact data are unknown. This paper propose the threshold value for noise reduction based on wavelet-thresholding. In the proposed method PSNR results show that the threshold value performs excellently in comparison with conventional methods without knowing the noise variance and volume of signal.
