Noise is a major issue while transferring images through all kinds of electronic communication. One of the most common noise in electronic communication is an impulse noise which is caused by unstable voltage. In this paper, the comparison of known image denoising techniques is discussed and a new technique using the decision based approach has been used for the removal of impulse noise. All th...

An Impulse noise detection & removal with adaptive filtering approach is proposed to restore images corrupted by salt & pepper noise. The proposed algorithm works well for suppressing impulse noise with noise density from 5 to 60% while preserving image details. The difference of current central pixel with median of local neighborhood pixels is used to classify the central pixel as noisy or noi...

Reducing noise from the color images is a very active research scope in image processing. In this paper, a modified fuzzy based image filtering algorithm is proposed for reducing impulse noise. This paper presents a new fuzzy filter for the removal Impulse noise in color images. For dealing with the Impulse noise, an algorithm is developed to search for a set of uncorrupted pixels in the neighb...

Restoration of digital images degraded by impulse noise is still a challenge for researchers. Various methods proposed in the literature suffer from common drawbacks: such as introduction of artifacts and blurring of the images. A novel idea is proposed in this paper where presence of impulsive pixels are detected by ANFIS (Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System) and mean of the median of suitab...

Combinational Neuro-Fuzzy (NF) logic is the mixed technique generated by the combination of artificial neural network and fuzzy-logic. Various methods are proposed in the literature to restore the image degraded by impulse noise using soft computing technique where all methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. A novel idea is proposed in this paper where the ANFIS is used to detect t...

In this paper, we propose a new class of Volterra series based filters for image enhancement and restoration. Generally the linear filters reduce the noise and cause blurring at the edges. Some nonlinear filters based on median operator or rank operator deal with only impulse noise and fail to cancel the most common Gaussian distributed noise. A class of second order Volterra filters is propose...

In this paper, we present a novel method for the removal of impulse noise from digital color images. The proposed filter, called the First Order Difference based Fuzzy Filter. It operates in two stages detection of impulse noise and prediction of noise density using alpha trimmed mean followed by denoising, using first order difference and fuzzy filter .Experimental results demonstrate to be su...

In the collection, transmission, decoding process, the images are likely to produce noise. Noise makes the image color distorted and the articulation dropped, and also affects the image quality. Due to different causes, there are different types of noise, and the impulse noise is most common among them which exert great influence on the image quality. This paper, according to the characteristic...

In the Transmission of images over channels, Images are corrupted by salt and pepper noise, due to faulty communications. Salt and Pepper noise is also referred to as Impulse noise. The objective of filtering is to remove the impulses so that the noise free image is fully recovered with minimum signal distortion. The best-known and most widely used nonlinear digital filters, based on order stat...

PDE-based image denoising processes often lead to significant loss of fine structures such as edges and textures. This article is concerned with numerical modeling for PDE-based denoising models that can preserve/recover fine structures in the restored image. The essentially non-dissipative schemes are considered to minimize nonphysical diffusion during the removal of impulse noise. For the rem...
