Abstract
Wavelet-domain hidden Markov models (HMMs) have been proposed and
applied to image processing, e.g., image denoising. We develop a new
HMM, called local contextual HMM (LCHMM), by introducing the Gaussian
mixture field where wavelet coefficients are assumed to locally follow
the Gaussian mixture distributions determined by their neighborhoods.
The LCHMM can exploit both the local statistics and the intrascale
dependencies of wavelet coefficients at low computational complexity. We
show that the proposed LCHMM combined with the
“cycle-spinning” technique may achieve the best performance
in image denoising
