Various kinds of images and pictures are required as sources of information for analysis and interpretation. When an image is converted from one form to another such as scanning, transmitting, digitizing, storing etc., degradation occurs to the output image. Hence, the output image needs to be enhanced in order to be better analyzed. Denoising is the one of the pre processing technique in digit...

A new model based on the hybridization of wavelet and bilateral filters for denoising of variety of noisy images is presented in this paper. The model is experimented on standard images, like x-ray images, ultrasound and astronomical telescopic images and the performances are evaluated in terms of peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and image quality index (IQI). Results demonstrate that use of b...

This paper proposes a two phase theme for removing noise and improves the resolution improvement victimization Adaptive bilateral filter. Within the initial part, to get rid of total variant regularization is employed to spot pixels that square measure probably to be contaminated by noise. Within the second part, the image is rebuilt employing a specialized technique that applies solely to thos...

The aim of this paper is to analyze the performance of adaptive synthesis filter banks for image compression at low bit rates. In adaptive synthesis filter banks, analysis section comprises of linear phase filters whereas, synthesis section manages a combination of linear phase and non linear filters (in form of delay filters). The adaptive synthesis filter banks have advantages over convention...

Thyristor rectifiers are widely used in electric railways in order to control the speed. As a consequence of their usage in addition to substantial input lead current, an enormous amount of harmonics is injected into the grid. To avoid such harmonics as well as reactive power compensation, reactive power hybrid filters consisting of active and passive filters are utilized. Regarding different p...

The use of an adaptive filter for CT images is becoming a common procedure and is said to reduce image noise while preserving sharpness and helping to reduce the required X-ray dose. Although many reports support this view, the validity of such evaluations is arguable. When the linearity of a system is in question, physical performance indexes should be measured under conditions similar to thos...

Owing to the powerful digital signal processors and the development of advanced adaptive algorithms there are a great number of different applications in which adaptive filters are used. The number of different applications in which adaptive techniques are being successfully used has increased enormously during the last two decades. There is a wide variety of configurations that could be applie...

We study a general class of nonlinear and shift-varying smoothing filters that operate based on averaging. This important class of filters includes many well-known examples such as the bilateral filter, nonlocal means, general adaptive moving average filters, and more. (Many linear filters such as linear minimum mean-squared error smoothing filters, Savitzky–Golay filters, smoothing splines, an...

this paper presents a new control methodology for active power filters that provide an adaptive online harmonic estimation with partial and selective harmonic reduction schemes, which has been implemented within an integrated controller. the proposed approach is to provide partial and selective reduction of those individual harmonics which exceed the recommended levels as set by regulatory bodi...
