High-Resolution Algorithm for Image Segmentation in the Presence of Correlated Noise

Multiple line characterization is a most common issue in image processing. A specific formalism turns the contour detection issue of image processing into a source localization issue of array processing. However, the existing methods do not address correlated noise. As a result, the detection perfor...

description Multiple line characterization is a most common issue in image processing. A specific formalism turns the contour detection issue of image processing into a source localization issue of array processing. However, the existing methods do not address correlated noise. As a result, the detection performance is degraded. In this paper, we propose to improve the subspace-based high-resolution methods by computing the fourth-order slice cumulant matrix of the received signals instead of second-order statistics, and we estimate contour parameters out of images impaired with correlated Gaussian noise. Simulation results are presented and show that the proposed methods improve line characterization performance compared to second-order statistics.
