Abstract

This project can be broken down into two main stages. In the first stage, I intend to implement two discrete de-noising filters for the Body Centered Cubic (BCC) grid. Each filter shall deal with one specific type of noise that occurs in medical imaging. In the second stage, I intend to compare the quality of de-noising on the BCC grid with that of the Cartesian (CC) grid, for the two noise models implemented in the first stage. Both stages are a part of the fundamental research on BCC sampling,  which may one day find wide applications in medical imaging.
