We describe a novel method of enhancing image geometric features using the oriented wavelets introduced in our earlier work (see Yu-Ping Wang, IEEE Trans. Image Proc., vol.8, no.12, p.1757-71, 1999). The poor directional selectivity of the conventional 2D wavelet transform has been circumvented by using this class of oriented wavelets. By taking advantage of directional wavelet decomposition, both the directional and scale correlation information are utilized for enhancing salient structures in images. To remove phase dependence, a pair of quadrature filters are used. The proposed algorithm has been applied to chromosome image enhancement. Comparisons of this algorithm with other approaches are presented |
