Abstract
The Stein's unbiased risk estimate and the linear expansion of thresholds (SURE-LET) approach proposed by Luisier et al. is very efficient for image denoising. But the SURE-LET approach adopts the pointwise thresholding function excluding the intrascale information in the wavelet transform, which limits the denoising ability of the technique. In this paper, to improve the SURE-LET approach, a hybrid thresholding function is designed by incorporating the local Wiener filter into the pointwise thresholding function. Experimental results show that the new hybrid thresholding function gets better denoising performance objectively and subjectively compared to the related SURE-LET approaches and the state-of-the-art wavelet-based methods.
