Contourlet Transform GOAL
Capture the intrinsic geometrical structure
-A key feature in visual information
(Dealing with enhancement.)
 Natural images are not simply stacks of 1-D piecewise smooth scan-lines;
 Discontinuity points (i.e. edges) are typically located along smooth curves
(i.e. contours) owing to smooth boundaries of physical objects.
 Thus, natural images contain intrinsic geometrical structures
Contourlet Transform Main challenge
Exploring geometry in images:
- Duo to discrete nature of the data.
--All we human can see is continuous
--Image is discrete (Sampling and Quantization)
Approach
Contourlet Transform
Contourlet Transform
Approach starts with :
1.Constructing a discrete-domain :
-Multiresolution and Multidirectional expansion
-using non-separable filter banks
(in much the same way that
wavelets are derived from filter banks)
This construction results :
flexible multiresolution,
and directional
Image expansion
(using contour segments)
Thus it is named the
contourlet transform.
The concept of wavelet: University of Heidelburg
Approach
flexible multiresolution
• Multi resolution means that the same image content is available
in two or more sizes (resolutions).

Approach
Decomposes The Image Into Several Directional Subbands And Multiple Scales
The CASCADE STRUCTURE allows:
- The multiscale and
directional decomposition to be
independent
- Makes possible to:
Decompose each scale into
any arbitrary power of two's number of
directions(22=4, 23=8, 24=16, …)

Contourlet Transform Concept
To perform multiscale decomposition we have applied LP :
for generating a down sample version
of the original image at each decomposition level.
See paper page: 3 Sub-topic: Pyramid frames
Each pyramid level creates only one bandpass image :
without generating any scrambled frequencies;
Pyramidal decomposition:
In our approach we have only down sampled the low pass channel to get rid of this effect.
which happens in the wavelet filter bank
when:
A highpass channel, after down sampling,
is folded back into the low frequency band.

Figure :The contourlet filter bank.
Multiscale decomposition into octave bands is computed
-by applying Laplacian pyramid
and then a directional filter bank is used to each bandpass channel.
Contourlet Transform
Approach
Enhancement of the Directional Subbands
This DBF is implemented by using a k-level
binary tree decomposition that leads to 2k
subbands with wedge shaped frequency
partition as shown (b).

(b) Frequency partitioning (l= 3, 2l = 8)
wedge shaped frequency subbands.

(a) Frequency partitioning:
where l = 3
and there are 23 = 8 real wedge-shaped frequency bands.
Subbands 0–3 correspond to the mostly horizontal directions,
while subbands 4–7 correspond to the mostly vertical directions.

Enhancement of the Directional Subbands
The processing of an image consists on:
-Applying a function to enhance the regions of interest.
In multiscale analysis:
Calculating function f for each subband :
-To emphasize the features of interest
-In order to get a new set y' of enhanced subbands:
Each of the resulting enhanced subbands can be
expressed using equation 1.

-After the enhanced subbands are obtained:-
The inverse transform is performed:
to obtain an enhanced image.
