چکیده

in this paper, a novel decision based median (dbm) filter for enhancing mr images has been proposed. the method is based on eliminating impulse noise from mr images. a median-based method to remove impulse noise from digital mr images has been developed. each pixel is leveled from black to white like gray-level. the method is adjusted in order to decide whether the median operation can be applied on a pixel. the main deficiency in conventional median filter approaches is that all pixels are filtered with no concern about healthy pixels. in this research, to suppress this deficiency, noisy pixels are initially detected, and then the filtering operation is applied on them. the proposed decision method (dm) is simple and leads to fast filtering. the results are more accurate than other conventional filters. moreover, dm adjusts itself based on the conditions of local detections. in other words, dm operation on detecting a pixel as a noise depends on the previous decision. as a considerable advantage, some unnecessary median operations are eliminated and the number of median operations reduces drastically by using dm. decision method leads to more acceptable results in scenarios with high noise density. furthermore, the proposed method reduces the probability of detecting noise-free pixels as noisy pixels and vice versa.

Improved Adaptive Median Filter Algorithm for Removing Impulse Noise from Grayscale Images

Digital image is often degraded by many kinds of noise during the process of acquisition and transmission. To make subsequent processing more convenient, it is necessary to decrease the effect of noise. There are many kinds of noises in image, which mainly include salt and pepper noise and Gaussian noise. This paper focuses on median filters to remove the salt and pepper noise. After summarizin...

A self-adjusting weighted median filter for removing impulse noise in images

In this paper, an intelligent self-adjusting weighted median filter for removing impulsive noise in images is presented. Three main techniques are developed to implement this self-adjusting weighted median filter : an intelligent classification to divide the image da ta into the ”corrupted” pixels and the ”uncorrupted” pixels, an efficient algorithm to find the median output of any weight set, ...

Removing Salt-And-Pepper Noise from Digital Image Using Unsymmetric Trimmed Median Filter

Every digital image has a two-dimensional mathematical representation of the digital image. Digital image is made out of pixels i.e. picture component. Every pixel speaks to the dark level for highly contrasting photographs at a solitary point in the image, so a pixel can be spoken to by a small speck of particular shading. Image restoration is the process of restoring degraded images which can...

Fast and efficient median filter for removing 1-99% levels of salt-and-pepper noise in images

This paper proposes a new median filter using prior information to capture natural pixels for restoration. In addition to being very efficient in logic execution, the proposed filter restores corrupted images with 1–99% levels of salt-and-pepper impulse noise to satisfactory ones. Without any iteration for noise detection, it intuitively and simply recognizes impulse noises, while keeping the o...
