  1. In order to run the code, you’ll need to go to http://taco.poly.edu/WaveletSoftware/ and download the matlab implementation of the dual-tree DWT. My original implementation used the separable DWT embedded into the cycle-spinning algorithm.

    In the present form, my code does additive noise removal. If you want to remove speckle you’ll need to use a log transformation in the beginning and an exponential one at the end.

    In the main function, line 67 reads im = stablepdf(x1,alpha,0,disp,0,2); I cannot provide you the code for calculating stable density functions as at the time it was provided to me by John Nolan under promise that I won’t recirculate it. You would thus need to go to http://www.robustanalysis.com/ and buy the STABLE code … (or write your own function to compute stable densities)
