A New Ultrasound Speckle Reduction Algorithm Based on Superpixel Segmentation and Detail Compensation

Speckle is a kind of noise commonly found in ultrasound images (UIs). Although traditional local operation-based methods, such as bilateral filtering, perform well in de-noising normal natural images with suitable parameters, these methods may break local correlations and, hence, their performance w...
