Silwal, Sharad Deep2009-12-212009-12-212009-12-21http://hdl.handle.net/2097/2355This report addresses some mathematical and statistical techniques of image processing and their computational implementation. Fundamental theories have been presented, applied and illustrated with examples. To make the report as self-contained as possible, key terminologies have been defined and some classical results and theorems are stated, in the most part, without proof. Some algorithms and techniques of image processing have been described and substantiated with experimentation using MATLAB. Several ways of estimating original images from noisy image data and their corresponding risks are discussed. Two image processing concepts selected to illustrate computational implementation are: "Bayes classification" and "Wavelet denoising". The discussion of the latter involves introducing a specialized area of mathematics, namely, wavelets. A self-contained theory for wavelets is built by first reviewing basic concepts of Fourier Analysis and then introducing Multi-resolution Analysis and wavelets. For a better understanding of Fourier Analysis techniques in image processing, original solutions to some problems in Fourier Analysis have been worked out. Finally, implementation of the above-mentioned concepts are illustrated with examples and MATLAB codes.en-USBayesian InferenceWaveletsImage denoisingImage processingBayesian inference and wavelet methods in image processingReportMathematics (0405)Statistics (0463)
