2D Dual-Tree Complex Biorthogonal M-Band Wavelet Transform

Caroline Chaux, Jean-Christophe Pesquet, Laurent Duval

Abstract: Dual-tree wavelet transforms have recently gained popularity since they provide low-redundancy directional analyses of images. In our recent work, dyadic real dual-tree decompositions have been extended to the M-band case, so adding much flexibility to this analysis tool. In this work, we propose to further extend this framework on two fronts by considering (i) biorthogonal and (ii) complex M-band dual-tree decompositions. Denoising results are finally provided to demonstrate the validity of the proposed design rules.
