Impact of contrast-distorted image on curvelet coefficients

Image quality (IQ) can be degraded due to various types of distortion such as noise, blurring, fast fading (FF), blocking artifacts and contrast distortion. These distortions may occur during operations such as acquisition, compression, storage, transmission, display and post-processing. Contrast di...
