A novel technique for despeckling the medical ultrasound images using lossy compression is presented. The logarithm of the input image is first transformed to the multiscale wavelet domain. It is then shown that the subband coefficients of the log transformed ultrasound image can be successfully modeled using the generalized Laplacian distribution. Based on this modeling, a simple adaptation of the zero-zone and reconstruction levels of the uniform threshold quantizer is proposed in order to achieve simultaneous despeckling and quantization. This adaptation is based on: 1) an estimate of the corrupting speckle noise level in the image; 2) the estimated statistics of the noise-free subband coefficients; and 3) the required compression rate. Context-based classification is also applied to the noisy coefficients to enhance the performance of the subband coder. The improvement that can be done in the existing is also discussed.
STEP I : Perform the homomorphic operation by taking the logarithm of the image.
STEP II : Decompose the corrupted image into detail levels using DWT which yields detail subband and an approximation subband.
STEP III : Estimate the threshold level for the noise corrupted detail subband coefficients using BayesShrink.
STEP IV:Perform the classification of the subband data into number of classes
STEP V : Quantize each class using the data and rate adaptive quantizer The approximation subband is quantized using a uniform quantizer.
STEP VI : Use an adaptive arithmetic coder to generate the encoded bit stream.

China’s plan emerging to interrupt Tsangpo’s motion
By: Moon Ch. Deka | 06/01/2010The Northeast had a wonderful landscape with the broad Brahmaputra valley of Assam sandwiched by the Eastern Himalayas and Arakan Yuma ranges of hills. The Brahmaputra valley is the biggest in the region which has played an important role for the growth of the States and the region’s economy. Mostly, Tsangpo contribution is very significant as concern to the recycling of water potentiality of Brahmaputra basin and its biodiversity apart from basin’s ecological balancing.

Choosing the Right Middle School Science Project
By: Kayla Fay | 05/01/2010Science Projects were easier in elementary school. Back then, you could submit a model rocket, an egg sucked into a bottle, or a simple science report on electricity. It's different in middle school. Middle School science teachers want creative ideas, specific elements, in depth research, and detailed logs of the whole science fair process. But the first step to a middle school science project is figuring out which type of project the teacher wants!
