Abstract-The main objective is to examine the still image format lossy compression and de-
noising using Discrete Meyer Wavelet Technique. The compression and de-noising is
implemented in software using MATLAB2012b version Wavelet Toolbox and 2-D DWT
technique. The purpose is to analyze compression and denoising using wavelet family such as
Discrete Meyer. The experiments and simulation is carried out on image .jpg formats. This
research work highlighting compression and adding ‘Salt & Pepper’ noise and de-noising.
The scope of the work involves Compression, De-noising and image clarity and to find the
effect of the threshold levels, to find out energy retained (Image Recovery) and lost, to find
PSNR and MSE.The wavelet differs from each other in PSNR and MSE. This method is
compared and classified in terms of its efficiency at different threshold values. Therefore, the
image recovery is good and clarity, but the percentage of compression and retaining the
energy is different. In order to quantify the performance of the de-noising, a ‘Salt & Pepper’
noise is added to the image and given as input to the de-noising algorithm, which produces an
image close to the original image.
Index Terms: Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PNSR), Mean Square Error (MSE), Two
Dimensional Discrete Wavelet Transform(2DDWT).
