wave_space_varThresh_inter


Purpose:

This WAIR command is used to obtain the wavelet space thresholded representation of the volumetric data. This routine is employed as an automatic shell command and does not require any user interaction, as opposed to the corresponding wave_space_varThresh.


Usage:

wave_space_varThresh_inter Num_Dims x_1_Dim_Size [ [x_k_Dim_Size] ] noise_level Thresh_Scheme alpha

where the following definitions are used:

Num_Dims
the number of dimensions of the data
x_1_Dim_Size
matrix-size of dimension 1
x_k_Dim_Size
matrix-size of dimensions 2 through Num_Dims
noise_level
the noise level (sigma) of the signals
Thresh_Scheme
the Wavelet-Space thresholding scheme: 1 is used for simple thresholding at level alpha, see below, 2 is used for Donoho-Johnston (DJ), and 3 for Dinov-Sumners (DS) thresholding approaches, respectively
alpha
the thresholding level (for simple thresholding approach), e.g., a thresholding level of alpha = 0.05 guarantees that only the top 5% of the largest in magnitude wavelet coefficients pass the filtering, all others are set to zero


Examples:

./wave_space_varThresh_inter ./WT_data.img ./WT_DS_data.img 3 256 256 256 10 3 0.0

  • This will employ DS thresholding approach to analyze the data "./WT_data.img" of dimensions 256x256y256z in wavelet space, assuming random noise of level 10 has been convolved with the data. The result will be saved as "./WT_DS_data.img".
