This paper presents an image denoising algorithm that uses principal component analysis (PCA) in conjunction with the non-local means image denoising. Image neighborhood vectors u...
A solid noise is a function that defines a random value at each point in space. Solid noises have immediate and powerful applications in surface texturing, stochastic modeling, a...
Segmentation of medical images is challenging due to poor image contrast and artifacts that result in missing or diffuse organ/tissue boundaries. Consequently, this task involves ...
