Abstract

In this paper, we develop a multichannel formulation of a single channel filtering problem in the wavelet domain. This technique is based on an orthogonal matrix representation of the 2-D separable wavelet transform. We show that semi-block circulant (SBC) structures resulting from a similarity transformation with this matrix operator permit a multichannel treatment of a noisy blurred image, yielding an adaptive restoration technique in the wavelet frequency domain. This work presents a new formulation of the 2-D separable wavelet decomposition that clearly produces matrices which may be block-diagonalized with an array Fourier transform. The method described here is a new tool, which builds on multichannel image restoration techniques developed in the past, but uses these ideas in the context of a single channel image, and offers much potential for improved adaptive image restoration in the wavelet domain.
