Super-Resolution with Multiselective Contourlets
We introduce a new approach to image super-resolution. The idea is to use a simple wavelet-based linear interpolation scheme as our initial estimate of high-resolution image; and to intensify geometric structure in initial estimation with an iterative projection process based on hard-thresholding scheme in a new angular multiselectivity domain.

A dual‐branch enhancement structure comprising greyscale feature map prediction and atmospheric light transmission network is proposed to remove noise from the images and enhance texture information, jointly generating enhanced visible light polarization images.

Contourlet-Based Fingerprint Antispoofing
We propose an image-based method using Contourlet transform [5] to detect liveness in fingerprint biometric systems. We observe that real and spoof fingerprint images exhibit different textural characteristics. Wavelet transform although widely used for liveness detection is not the ideal one.

Fusion of Deep and Time–Frequency Local Features for Melanoma Skin Cancer Detection
Skin cancer spreads quickly as the skin is the most vulnerable organ, and melanoma (MEL) is a fatal type of skin cancer. Detecting MEL in the early stage can hugely increase the chance of a cure. There are several methods based on machine learning to detect MEL from dermoscopic images. However, increasing the accuracy of detection is still challenging.

A Novel Design Approach for Contourlet Filter Banks
This letter proposes a novel design approach for optimal contourlet filter banks based on the parametric 9/7 filter family. The Laplacian pyramid decomposition is replaced by optimal 9/7 filter banks with rational coefficients, and directional filter banks are activated using a pkva 12 filter in the contourlets.

Single-Frame Image Super-resolution through Contourlet Learning
We propose a learning-based, single-image super-resolution reconstruction technique using the contourlet transform, which is capable of capturing the smoothness along contours making use of directional decompositions.

Warp-Knitted Fabric Defect Segmentation Based on Non-Subsampled Wavelet-Based Contourlet Transform
In this paper, a non-subsampled wavelet-based contourlet transform (NWCT) is applied in warp-knitted fabric defect segmentation. Compared with the traditional contourlet transform, wavelet transform takes the place of Laplacian pyramid in NWCT and the ...

This chapter focuses on the development of a new \true" two- dimensional representation for images that can capture the intrinsic geo- metrical structure of pictorial information. Our emphasis is on the discrete framework that can lead to algorithmic implementations. We propose a double filter bank structure, named the pyramidal directional filter bank,

A dual adaptive watermarking scheme in contourlet domain for DICOM images
Background Nowadays, medical imaging equipments produce digital form of medical images. In a modern health care environment, new systems such as PACS (picture archiving and communication systems), use the digital form of medical image too.

Algorithm on Contourlet Domain in Detection of Road Cracks for Pavement Images
In this paper we present a detection algorithm of road cracks in several directions and each layer for pavement images in contourlet domain. Firstly, a pavement image is converted to a grey-scale image which is decomposed by using contourlet transform ...
