Abstract: This paper deals with the threshold estimation method for image denoising in the wavelet transform domain. The proposed technique is based upon the discrete wavelet transform analysis where the algorithm of wavelet threshold is used to calculate the value of threshold. The proposed method is more efficient and adaptive because the parameter required for calculating the threshold based on sub band data. The threshold value is computed by xσ2 w0 /σ where x is the scale parameter which depends upon the sub band size and number of decomposition and σw0 is the noise variance estimation. σ are the wavelet coefficient variance estimation in various sub bands. Experimental results on several test images are compared with popular denoise technique from three aspects (PSNR, RMSE and CoC).
