Abstract--We propose an algorithm for designing linear equalizers that maximize the structural similarity (SSIM) index between the reference and restored signals. The SSIM index ha...

In this paper, we propose a new method to construct an edge-preserving filter which has very similar response to the bilateral filter. The bilateral filter is a normalized convolu...
Bayesian reconstruction methods are slow and have been avoided in 3D ultrasound, since fast algorithms are required. This paper tries to overcome this difficulty by presenting a f...
We propose a novel coplanar filter, which exploits the coplanarity of gray-level distribution of neighboring pixels, to pre-filter the document images. Experiments show that the p...
Suppression of ringing effect is a challenging problem. It is mainly caused by absence of effective methods of ringing artifact detection. In this paper we introduce a ringing est...
