Traditional noise-filtering techniques are known to significantly alter features of chaotic data. In this paper, we present a noncausal topology-based filtering method for continuous-time dynamical systems that is effective in removing additive, uncorrelated noise from time-series data. Signal-to-noise ratios and Lyapunov exponent estimates are dramatically improved following the removal of the...

Impulse noise detection is a critical issue when removing impulse noise and impulse/Gaussian mixed noise. In this paper, we propose a new detection mechanism for universal noise and a universal noise-filtering framework based on the nonlocal means (NL-means). The operation is carried out in two stages, i.e., detection followed by filtering. For detection, first, we propose the robust outlyingne...

An algorithm and software based on the concept of cellular automata was developed for removing salt and pepper noise efficiently. The paper shows the software programming for developing an algorithm and software called Cellular Automata Image Denoising (CAID) toolkit. This paper presents the CAID toolkit using examples and discusses how the CAID toolkit is designed. Matlab code was used to deve...

Removing noise from images is a challenging problem in digital image processing. This paper presents an image denoising method based on a maximum a posteriori (MAP) density function estimator, which is implemented in the wavelet domain because of its energy compaction property. The performance of the MAP estimator depends on the proposed model for noise-free wavelet coefficients. Thus in the wa...

A wavelet-based speech enhancement algorithm for removing additive background noise from a single channel of noisy speech is proposed. In the algorithm, the enhancement is performed on a frame-by-frame basis, and each frame is classified into either voiced or unvoiced frame to deterimine the appropriate threshold in removing noise. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated on Auror...

introduction: one of the major problems in the development of nuclear medicine images is the presence of noise. the noise level in nuclear medicine images is usually reduced by the analysis of imaging data in a fourier transform environment. the main drawback of this environment belongs to low signal to noise ratio in high frequencies because removing noise frequencies may remove data and times...

A major complaint of individuals with normal hearing and hearing impairments is a reduced ability to understand speech in a noisy environment. This paper describes the concept of adaptive noise cancelling for removing noise from corrupted speech signals. Application of adaptive digital signal processing has long been known and is described from a historical as well as technical perspective. The...

In this research, we will work on the development of a new method for the removal of salt & pepper noise by creating a new hybridized filter using existing and/or new noise removal filters. The proposed filter will remove the noise with no or minimum image quality degradation. Salt & pepper noise degrades the quality of the image by hiding the details of objects in the image and also causes dam...
