Based on the power distribution in different scales, an adaptive algorithm is proposed in this paper, whereby the coefficients are adjusted non-linearly. The particle information can be well retained while the useless background is removed. In this way, satisfactory binary image can be obtained for further analysis of the sediment particle.展开更多
