Abstract

Medical imaging techniques play a very important role in modern life. However, due to the technique limitation, the random noise often degrades the quality of acquired medical images, which seriously affects the medical image analysis. A denoising scheme that combines sparse dictionary learning with cluster ensemble is proposed in our paper, which exploits both the inherent self-similarity in images and sparsity of image patches. Firstly, construct image feature set by using steering kernel regression. Then, the effective cluster ensemble method is utilized to gain the class label of image feature set. Finally, for each cluster, an adaptive dictionary was trained by the sparse dictionary learning algorithm. The trained dictionary is more adaptive and stable, which is beneficial to improve the quality of recovered image. The experiment validates the superiorities of our proposed method and has a satisfactory speed.
