| Abstract: |
We present the application of Bambeger Pyramids to the removal of speckle noise from SAR images using subband domain shrinking. Bamberger Pyramids provide better directional selectivity than the commonly used 2D UDWT, allowing better representation of edges and geometrical structures. We show that Bamberger Pyramids provide superior speckle removal properties when compared to the 2D UDWT, and the commonly used Lee MMSE filter. |
