Wavelet transform has recently emerged as a promising technique for video processing applications due to its flexibility in representing non-stationary video signals. Motion estimation which uses wavelet transform of octave band division method is applied In many places but if motion estimation error happens in the lowest frequency band. motion estimation error is accumulated by next time strep and there has the Problem that time and the data amount that are cost In calculation at each steps are increased. On the other hand. wavelet packet that achieved the best image quality in a given bit rate from a rate-distortion sense is suggested. But, this method has the disadvantage of time costs on designing wavelet packet. In order to solve this problem we solved this problem by introducing Top_down method. But we did not find the optimum solution in a given butt rate. That image variance can represent image complexity is considered in this paper. In this paper. we propose a fast multiresolution motion estimation scheme based on the adaptive wavelet transform for video compression.

By the advent of the high-resolution Satellite imagery, there are increasing needs in image mosaicking technology which can be applied to various application fields such as GIS(Geographic Information system). To mosaic images, various methods such as image matching and histogram modification are needed. In this study, automated image mosaicking is performed using image matching method based on the multi-resolution wavelet analysis(MWA). Specifically, both area based and feature based matching method are embedded in the multi-resolution wavelet analysis to construct seam line.; seam points are extracted then polygon clipping method are applied to define overlapped area of two adjoining images. Before mosaicking, radiometric correction is proceeded by using histogram matching method. As a result, mosaicking area is automatically extracted by using polygon clipping method. Also, seamless image is acquired using multi-resolution wavelet analysis.

In this paper, the performance comparison of the TR-UWB System using Wavelet Pulse, DPSS pulse, and second Gaussian pulse in multi-user environment is analyzed. The data signal and the reference signal is sent with some time intervals in TR-UWB system. At this time the two signals are through the same channel. In the receiver the reference signal is used as a template. This advantage results in demodulation without channel estimation and low complexity of it. However the conventional TR-UWB system based on a Gaussian signal in a multi-user environment has the disadvantage of poor performance due to the interferences between the users. To overcome this disadvantage, DPSS (Discrete Prolate Shperoidal Sequence) is used to reduce the interferences between the users. We propose the system with multiresolution function of orthogonal wavelet reducing the interferences, which has a better performance in multi-user environment when they are sent in transmission side.

This paper addresses a hybrid multi-focus image fusion scheme using the recent curvelet transform constructions. Hybridization is obtained by combining the MS fusion rule with a novel "copy" method. The proposed scheme use MS rule to fuse the m most significant terms in spectrum of an image at each decomposition level. The scheme is dubbed in this work as m-term fusion in adherence to its use of the MSC (most significant coefficients) in the transform set at any given scale, orientation, and translation. We applied the edge-sensitive objective quality measure proposed by Xydeas and Petrovic to evaluate the method. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme is a potential alternative to the redundant, shift-invariant Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet transforms. In particular, it was confirmed that a 50% m-term fusion produces outputs with no visible quality degradation.

In this paper, we propose an efficient motion estimation algorithm which can reduce computational complexity by using characteristics of wavelet coefficient in each subband while keeping about the same image quality as in using MRME(multiresolution motion estimation). In general, because of the high similarity between consecutive frames, we first decide whether the motion exists or not by just comparing MAD(mean absolute difference) between blocks with threshold in the lowest subbands of consecutive two frames. If it turns out that there is no motion in the lowest subband, we can also decide no motion exists in the higher subband. This is due to the characteristics of wavelet transform. Conversely, if we find any motion in the lowest subband, we can reduce computational complexity by estimating high subband motion vectors selectively according to the amount of computational complexity by estimating high subband motion vectors selectively according to the amount of energy in that subband. Experimental results are shown that algorithm suggested in this paper maintains about the same PSNR as MRME. However, the processing time was reduced about 30-50% compared with the MRME.

Recently, many methods to analyze signal have been proposed and representative methods are the Fourier transform and wavelet transform. In these methods, the Fourier transform represents signal with combination cosine and sine at all locations in the frequency domain. However, it doesn't provide time information that particular frequency occurs in signal and depends on only the global feature of the signal. So, to improve these points the wavelet transform which is capable of multiresolution analysis has been applied to many fields such as speech processing, image processing and computer vision. And the wavelet transform, which uses changing window according to scale parameter, presents time-frequency localization. In this paper, we proposed a new approach using a wavelet of cosine and sine type and analyzed features of signal in a limited point of frequency-time plane.

In In this paper, we proposed a new JPEG2000 codec using multiresolution-based rendering (MRBR) technique for video compression of 3-dimensional digital cinema. We introduced discrete wavelet transform (DWT) for stereoscopic image and stereo matching technique in the wavelet domain. The disparity was extracted using stereo matching and transmitted with the reference (left) image. Since the generated right image was degraded by the occlusion lesion, the residual image which is generated from difference between the original right image and the generated one was transmitted at the same tine. The disparity data was extracted using the dynamic programming method in the disparity domain. There is high correlation between the higher and lower subbands. Therefore we decreased the calculation amount and enhanced accuracy by restricting the search window and applying the disparity information generated from higher subband.

In this paper, an improved technique for multiresolutive reconstruction of magnetoencephalography (MEG) source distribution is proposed. Using the proposed technique, focal solution with higher energy density can be reconstructed. Moreover, the proposed approach is very easy to implement compared to conventional ones. The usefulness of the proposed technique is verified by the application to a real brain model.

In this paper, MTSVQ(Multirate Tree-Structured Vector Quantization) is introduced for subband image coding. Original images are decomposed into a number of subband components, and multiresolution codebook is designed by MTSVQ algorithm. Optimal bit allocation among the subband components becomes the problem selecting the particular pruned subtree of MTSVQ which has the desired rate and distortion.
