Generally, wavelet coefficients can be classified into two categories: large coefficients with much signal information and small coefficients with little signal component. This statistical characteristic of wavelet coefficient is approximated to Gaussian mixture model and efficiently applied to noise reduction. In this paper, we propose an image denoising method using mixture modeling of wavelet coefficients. Binary mask value is generated by proper threshold which classifies wavelet coefficients into two categories. Information of binary mask value is used to remove image noise. We also develope an enhancement method of mask value using morphological filter, and apply it to image denoising for improvement of the proposed method. Simulation results shows the proposed method have better PSNRs than those of the state of art denoising methods.

In this paper, We proposed extraction method using EZW a specific character and then add watermark significant coefficient of image. After wavelet transform in image, the significant coefficient value add to watermark information image. In this method, the locations of nonzero wavelet coefficients are encoded with a tree structure, called zerotree, which can exploit the self-similarity of the pyramid decomposition across different scales. The simulation shows that this method provides a superior performance over conventional method and can be successfully applied to the application areas that requires of progressive transmission and search for image data.

EZW(Embedded coding using Zero-trees of Wavelet coefficients) decreases symbol-position information using zero-trees, but threshold value fall lot raising resolution, then coding cost of significant coefficients is expensive. To avoide this fact, this paper uses quad-tree representing coefficient-position information. a magnitude of significant coefficient is represented on matrix used at EZW. the proposed algorithm is hoped for raising a coding cost.

A new method of Semi-fragile image watermarking which ensures the integrity of the contents of digital image is presented. Proposed watermarking scheme embeds watermark in the form of quantization noise on the wavelet transform coefficients in a specific mid frequency subbands selected from a wavelet packet decomposition based on energy distribution of wavelet transform coefficients. By controlling the strength of embedded watermark using HVS (Human Visual System) characteristic, it is imperceptible by a human viewer while robust against non-malicious attack such as compression for storage and/or transmission. When an attack is applied on the original image, it is highly probable that wavelet transform coefficients not only at the exact attack positions but also the neighboring ones are modified. Therefore, proposed authentication method utilizes whether both current coefficient and its neighbors are damaged. together. So it can efficiently detect and accurately localize attacks inflicted on the content of original image. Decision threshold for authentication can be user controlled for different application areas as needed.

The chatter behaviour in endmilling is a complex and nonlinear phenomenon, so it is very difficult to detect and diagnose this chatter phenomenon, This paper presents new method for the detection of chatter in endmilling operation based on the wavelet transform. In this paper, the fundamental property of the wavelet transform is reviewed by comparing the spectrum of other algorithm such as FFT. This result using wavelet transform shows the possibiling of the chatter detection in endmilling operation.

본 논문에서는 동영상 데이터베이스에서 Key-frame을 검색하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 Key-frame을 검색하기위해 컬러 피쳐를 공간영역에서 추출하지 않고 wavelet transform 영역에서 컬러 피쳐를 추출하는 방법을 제안한다. wavelet transform 의 저주파 밴드는 영상전체의 특징을 잘 나타내고 고주파 밴드는 texture 와 국부적인 컬러 특성을 잘 나타낸다. 색인과정 알고리즘은 영상의 크기를 정규화하고 RGB 컬러공간에서 HSV 컬러 공간으로 변환을 하여, H, S, V 각 채널에 대해 Daubechies' wavelet transform을 수행한 후 변환 영역에서 피쳐를 추출하게 된다. 색인을 위한 피쳐로 wavelet 계수와 lowest 밴드의 평균과 표준편차를 추출하였다. 효율적인 검색을 위해 검색은 2단계로 수행된다. 먼저 평균과 표준편차만을 이용한 1차 검색을 통해 2차 검색의 후보 영상들을 추출하고 2차 검색에서는 1차 검색 통과 영상들에 대해서만 wavelet 계수들을 비교하여 최종 검색 결과를 얻게 된다. 검색결과 기존의 컬러 피쳐를 이용한 방법보다 우수한 검색결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Video compression based on DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) has weakpoints of blocking artifacts and pixel loss when the resolution is changed. DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform) based method can overcome such problems. In SAMCoW (Scalable Adaptive Motion Compensation Wavelet), one of wavelet based video coding algorithm, both intra frames and motion compensated error frames are encoded using EZW(Embedded Zerotree Wavelet) algorithm. However the property of wavelets transform coefficients of motion compensated error frames are different from that of still images. Signal energy is not highly concentrated in the lower bands which is true for most still image cases. Signal energy is rather evenly distributed over all frequency bands. This paper suggests a new video coding algorithm utilizing these properties. Spatial band coding which is known to be very effective for encoding images with relative1y high frequency components and not utilizing the interband coefficients correlation is applied instead of EZW to encode both intra and inter frames. In spatial band coding, the position and value of significant wavelet coefficients in each band are progressively transmitted. Unlike EZW, inter band coefficients correlations are not utilized in spatial band coding. It has been shown that spatial band coding gives better performance than EZW when applied to wavelet based video compression.

There are the frequency shift keying(FSK), phase shift keying(PSK) and amplitude shift keying(ASK) in the conventional digital communications method. In this paper, We proposed a new robust wavelet shift keying system using scaling and wavelet function in the digital communication. Wavelet Transform consist of a low frequency and high frequency coefficient. When the input signal is one, if it finds the impulse response, the signal is separated from the scaling and wavelet function. The binary data is encoded by modulator which assigned the scaling function to 1(one), and wavelet to zero(0). It was demonstrated by experiment that the proposed algorithm can be a robust noise.
