An image is often corrupted by noise in its acquisition and transmission. Image denoising is used to remove the additive noise while retaining as much as possible the important image features. The motivation is that as wavelet transform is good at energy compaction, the small coefficients are more likely due to noise and large coefficient due to important signal features [6]. The proposed technique is based upon the analysis of wavelet transform which uses a soft thresholding method for thresholding the small coefficients without affecting the significant features of the image. In the proposed work, image denoising is studied using various wavelets for different images with two different noises at various levels of decomposition and comparison is done between the e three methods of wavelet shrinkage techniques.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
