- A bridge image taken in Wenzhou was chosen for study and analysis. The wavelet transform was used to denoise the image before extracting the bridge edges to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the image. In the wavelet transform, four wavelet functions (sym5, db5, coif5 and fk6) and four decomposition levels (two, three, four and five levels) were used to decompose the image, followed by coefficient filtering and reconstruction to obtain the denoised image. The results show that the sym5 wavelet function performs best in the three-level decomposition, with PSNR and MSE of 23.48 dB and 299.49, respectively. The canny algorithm was used to detect the edges of the images before and after denoising, and it is obvious that the edge detection of the images was better after wavelet transform denoising.
- In addition, the improvements of edge detection by Gaussian filtering and wavelet transform were compared and discussed. The Pratt quality factors of the two methods were 0.47 and 0.53, respectively, which shows that wavelet transform noise removal has better quality factors compared to Gaussian filtering. Thus, the effect of edge detection was improved. In summary, the use of wavelet transform to remove noise can provide a favorable method for edge detection and can lay a solid basis for the daily maintenance of bridges and related scientific research work.
