Abstract

The first nonlinear rules for wavelet based image denoising assume wavelet coefficients are independent. However it is well-known that there are strong dependencies between coefficients such as interscale and intrascale dependencies. We have introduced a non-Gaussian bivariate pdf which exploits the interscale dependencies between a coefficient and its parent [7, 8]. In this paper, how to extend this pdf in order to include the other dependencies will be discussed and in one example we will derive a multivariate shrinkage rule. The good performance of this new rule will be illustrated on an image denoising algorithm which capture also interscale dependencies.
