A new thresholding strategy for the estimation of a deterministic image immersed in noise is introduced. The threshold is combined with a wavelet decomposition, where the wavelet coefficient of the image at any fixed value of the decomposition index is estimated, via thresholding the observed coefficient depending on the value of both the magnitude of the observed coefficient as well as the magnitudes of coefficients of a set of additional images calculated from the observed image. The additional set of images is chosen so that the wavelet transforms of the full set of images have suitable deterministic and joint stochastic properties at a fixed scale and position index. Two different sets of additional images are suggested. The behaviour of the threshold criterion for a purely noisy image is investigated and a universal threshold is determined. The properties of the threshold for some typical deterministic signal structures are also given. The risk of an individual coefficient is determined, and calculated explicitly when the universal threshold is used, and some typical deterministic signal structures. The method is implemented on several examples and the theoretical risk reductions substantiated.
