In this paper we develop an adaptive algorithm for decomposition and filtering of grayscales images. This method is highly adaptive decomposition image called Bidimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (BEMD) based in blocks. This proposed approach decomposes image into a basis functions named Intrinsic Mode Function (IMF) and residue. This method offers a good result in visual quality but it consumes an important execution time. To overcome this problem we propose a new approach using Block based BEMD method where the input image is subdivided into blocks. Then the conventional BEMD is applied on each of the four blocks separately. This proposed extended method gives a solution in reduction of execution time. This approach shows the good results in the field of image filtering. Denoised image is obtained by summing the residue and the filtered first IMFs (the detail) using a wavelet technique. Experimental results positively show that this proposed methodology removes Gaussian and Impulsive noises from the images.
Image analysis by bidimensional empirical mode decomposition
Image and Vision Computing, 2003
Recent developments in analysis methods on the non-linear and non-stationary data have received large attention by the image analysts. In 1998, Huang introduced the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) in signal processing. The EMD approach, fully unsupervised, proved reliable monodimensional (seismic and biomedical) signals. The main contribution of our approach is to apply the EMD to texture extraction and image filtering, which are widely recognized as a difficult and challenging computer vision problem. We developed an algorithm based on bidimensional empirical mode decomposition (BEMD) to extract features at multiple scales or spatial frequencies. These features, called intrinsic mode functions, are extracted by a sifting process. The bidimensional sifting process is realized using morphological operators to detect regional maxima and thanks to radial basis function for surface interpolation. The performance of the texture extraction algorithms, using BEMD method, is demonstrated in the experiment with both synthetic and natural images. q

This paper presents two different approaches in color image decomposition domain with Bidimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (BEMD). The first approach applies the BEMD on each channel separately and the second is based on interpolation of each channel in the sifting process. The comparison of two approaches shows the same performance of each approach in terms of visual quality, but they do not provide the same results in execution time which presents the most important criteron in real time applications. It was shown that the second BEMD approach based on interpolation of each channel in the sifting process, gives a gain in the point of view the execution time.

This paper presents two proposed approaches to color image decomposition with Bidimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (BEMD) technique. The first one applies the BEMD on each channel separately and the second is based on interpolation of each channel in the sifting process. The application of the two methods shows the same performance of each approach in terms of PSNR and visual quality, but they do not provide the same results in execution time which presents the most important criterion in real time applications. It was shown that the second BEMD approach based on interpolation of each channel in the sifting process, gives a gain in the point of view the execution time.
A bidimensional empirical mode decomposition method for color image processing
2010
This study introduces a new approach based on Bidimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (BEMD) to extract texture features at multiple scales or spatial frequencies. Moreover, it can resolve the intrawave frequency modulation provided the frequency modulation. This decomposition, obtained by the bidimensional sifting process, plays an important role in the characterization of regions in textured images. The sifting process is realized using morphological operators to analyze the spatial frequencies and thanks to radial basis functions (RBF) for surface interpolation. We modified the original sifting algorithm to permit a pseudo bandpass decomposition of images by inserting scale criterion. Its effectiveness is demonstrated on synthetic and natural textures. In particular, we show that many different elements in textures can be extracted through the bidimensional empirical mode decomposition, which is fully unsupervised.
3D extension of the fast and adaptive bidimensional empirical mode decomposition
Multidimensional Systems and Signal Processing, 2014
The Bidimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (BEMD) has taken its place among the most known decomposition methods as Fourier transform and wavelet, but the enormous execution time that it requires represents a real obstacle for its application. Hence the Fast and Adaptive Bidimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (FABEMD) is proposed basically to overcome this obstacle by decreasing the execution time of the BEMD; its principle is based on the use of statistical filters to generate the upper and the lower envelopes instead of the interpolation functions used in the BEMD. In this work we propose a 3D extension of the FABEMD denoted Fast and Adaptive Tridimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition which can decompose a volume into a set of Tridimensional Intrinsic Mode Functions (TIMFs), the first TIMFs belong to the high frequencies and the last ones to the low frequencies. The proposed approach takes an efficient runtime compared with the considerable one required by the Multidimensional Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition, and it ensures a good quality of the decomposition in term of orthogonality and reconstruction. The obtained results are encouraging and will open a new road to three dimensional extensions of many applications.

Electrocardiogram, popularly known as ECG is a diagnostic test which detects the heart's electrical system. It is an inevitable diagnostic technique in the medical field which helps to detect any heart related diseases accurately. But there are high chances of addition of any random unwanted signals or noises during the recording process. This hinders the exact diagnosis and hence it is important to denoise these signals. There exist various denoising techniques including Empirical mode decomposition (EMD), Non local means (NLM), various filters, etc. A modified method of EMD is presented here which performs smaller number of iterations and forms only a few Intrinsic mode functions (IMF) when compared with traditional EMD method.. The presented work is a performance comparison study between the modified version of EMD which has lesser latency with the traditional EMD.

Development of Empirical Mode Decomposition
2012
In this paper, one of the tasks for which empirical mode decomposition is potentially useful is nonparametric signal denoising, an area for which wavelet thresholding has been the dominant technique for many years. In this paper, the wavelet thresholding principle is used in the decomposition modes resulting from applying EMD to a signal. We show that although a direct application of this principle is not feasible in the EMD case, it can be appropriately adapted by exploiting the special characteristics of the EMD decomposition modes. In the same manner, inspired by the translation invariant wavelet thresholding, a similar technique adapted to EMD is developed, leading to enhanced denoising performance.
