Biomedical Image Enhancement Using Wavelets

open access: yesProcedia Computer Science, 2015
AbstractAs image enhancement is the main issue for biomedical image diagnosis, the aim of this paper is to present a method to enhance the biomedical images. In this paper, a combination of wavelets is used for the same. In the method after applying SIFT(Scale Invariant Feature Transforms) algorithm on the image the first wavelet D’Mayer is applied ...
