Abstract:
Heart sound signal is an important sign about the mechanical performance of the cardiac valves. Enhancement of heart sound signal is a crucial issue to identify cardiac disease relevant to valve disorder. This study, presents a new approach based on the use of Dual Tree Complex Wavelet transform (DTCWT). The current approach has been employed in order to identify the normal heart sound from the pathological disorder. Twenty analyzed signals obtained from the PhysioNet database. After the preprocessing procedure the DTCWT has been implemented and the reconstructed signal were employed to extract five statistical features for both sounds. The result of the implementation and box plot showing the robust of DTCWT with apparent significance amongst the traditional discreet wavelet transform (DWT).Keywords:

Although Optical wavelet transform has some advantages over discrete wavelet transform, but the mother wavelets to used are very few. That limits the signal processing ability of optical wavelet transform. Without scaling functions, the multiresolution analysis of a mother wavelet is not complete. In this paper, almost all the mother wavelets used in discrete wavelet transform are introduced into optical wavelet transform. Based on the analysis, we find whether the mother wavelets have analytical forms is not a necessary condition for implementing them in optical wavelet transform. Optical wavelet transform only needs to obtain the 2D approximations of wavelet functions. Then, with the cascade algorithm, the 1D approximations of scaling and wavelet functions are computed. By the scheme of 2D separable wavelet transform, the approximations of 2D scaling and wavelet functions are constructed. So mother wavelets frequently utilized in discrete wavelet transform are introduced into optical wavelet transform. With the increase of mother wavelet for selection, it is natural to classify optical wavelet transform into separable and non-separable cases as it does in discrete wavelet transform. Since the mothers introduced by the method in this paper are separable, they are included in the separable optical wavelet transform. And the advantages of the separable mothers are listed with corresponding examples.

Recently, the second generation wavelet which is lifting scheme of the first generation wavelet has attached much attention, because it keeps the good characteristics of the first generation wavelet transform and gets over the limitation of the first generate wavelet transform. This paper expounds of the lifting scheme and the excellent characteristics of the second generation wavelet transform, and makes comparison between the first generation wavelet ransform(DWT) and the second generation wavelet transform(LWT).

The dual-tree complex wavelet transform is considered a relatively recent improvement for the discrete wavelet transform. In this paper, the applicability of such transform in the problem of speech enhancement is evaluated. For this purpose, a nonthreshold scheme is proposed. Two filters, one for the imaginary part and other for the real part of complex wavelet coefficients were designed. These two real filters were then averaged to obtain the final filter. A uniform noise reduction was performed for all wavelet scales. Simulation results show that, together, nonthresholding scheme and dual-tree complex wavelet transform obtained consistently results.

Signal analysis based on the wavelet transform is applied in many fields. Detection and classification of electromagnetic transients in power systems is a significant application. The use of the wavelet transform for measurement purposes involves issues of uncertainty evaluation. In this paper, an analytical model for the evaluation of the uncertainty affecting the details and the approximation coefficients determined means of the discrete-time wavelet transform is proposed. The results of some experimental work showing the performance of the method are also presented and discussed.

Although the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is a powerful image processing tool,and it has two disadvantages that undermine its usage in many applications. First,DWT is shift sensitive because input-signal shifts generate unpredictable changes in DWT coefficients. Second,DWT suffers from poor directionality because the discrete wavelet transform coefficients reveal only three spatial orientations. In order to overcome the shortcoming of the commonly-used image processing methods,the fabric texture classification method based on dual tree complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) was proposed. Compared with the traditional discrete wavelet transform,the dual tree complex wavelet transform has the properties of approximate shift invariance and more directionality. These properties are good for tracing,locating and preserving image features. In this study,DT-CWT and BP neural network together were used to classify the fabric texture. Experimental result shows that the classification rate can attain 98%.

Image denoising based on wedgelet transform and dual-tree complex wavelet transform (WDT-CWT) is proposed in this paper. Wedgelet transform is a new method that has a good performance in approximating edges. The limitation of wedgelet transform is that it smoothes the flat region excessively, leading to the loss of some texture features. To reduce this limitation, we employed dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) to improve the detection of texture information. Through a combination of the wedgelet transform and DT-CWT, we develop a detector of texture, edge and direction information. The experimental results show that WDT-CWT outperforms many traditional approaches both visualization and in terms of evaluation values.

Dual tree complex wavelet transform(DTCWT) is a form of discrete wavelet transform, which generates complex coefficients by using a dual tree of wavelet filters to obtain their real and imaginary parts. The purposes of de-noising are reducing noise level and improving signal to noise ratio (SNR) without distorting the signal or image. This paper proposes a method for removing white Gaussian noise from ECG signals and biomedical images. The discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is very valuable in a large scope of de-noising problems. However, it has limitations such as oscillations of the coefficients at a singularity, lack of directional selectivity in higher dimensions, aliasing and consequent shift variance. The complex wavelet transform CWT strategy that we focus on in this paper is Kingsbury's and Selesnick's dual tree CWT (DTCWT) which outperforms the critically decimated DWT in a range of applications, such as de-noising. Each complex wavelet is oriented along one of six possible directions, and the magnitude of each complex wavelet has a smooth bell-shape. In the final part of this paper, we present biomedical image and signal de-noising by the means of thresholding magnitude of the wavelet coefficients.

The Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform(DT CWT) has been proposed to overcome the drawbacks of the real Discrete Wavelet Transform(DWT).DT CWT can reduce shift sensitivity and improve directional selectivity of real DWT when the corresponding wavelets form Hilbert transform pairs.Therefore,DT CWT becomes a potential efficient tool in image processing,which can improve the performances of image registration and fusion greatly.

This paper presents the use of DT-DWT (Dual Tree-Discrete Wavelet Transform) based CWT (Complex Wavelet Transform) technique for detecting and localizing the power quality (PQ) events like sag, swell, interruption, harmonics, transients and flicker. CWT is the complex valued extension to the standard DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform) which suffers from the limitations like shift sensitivity, poor directionality and the absence of the phase information. A data base of these events is generated in MATLAB from the numerical models of these events within the parameters as per IEEE-1159 standard. Various features like mean, standard deviation, skewness, kurtosis, energy, entropy etc. are extracted to detect PQ events. An ANN (Artificial Neural Network) technique is used as a classifier and the classification results are presented to demonstrate the efficacy of the DT-DWT based CWT.
