An improved infrared image processing method based on adaptive threshold denoising
Abstract
Abstract This paper combines the image adaptive threshold denoising algorithm and performs double threshold mapping processing to the infrared image, which effectively reduces the influence of these phenomena to the infrared image and improves the quality of the image. In this paper, the infrared image denoising technology is studied, and an infrared image denoising method based on the wavelet coefficient threshold processing is proposed. This method is based on the noise distribution characteristics of infrared images, the multiplicative noise in the infrared image is transformed into an additive noise, and the wavelet transform coefficient of the transformed infrared image is processed to denoise the image. On this basis, the advantages and disadvantages of the soft and hard threshold functions are deeply analyzed, and an adaptive threshold function with adjustable parameter is constructed. At the same time, in order to suppress the Gibbs visual distortion caused by the absence of translation invariance of the orthogonal wavelet transform, the two-input wavelet transform with translation invariance is introduced, and a double threshold mapping infrared image processing method based on the adaptive threshold denoising algorithm based on the two-input wavelet transform is formed. Simulation results show that the method proposed in this paper has a better suppression of noise, maintains the integrity of image details, and improves the image quality to a certain extent.
