The fact that makes image denoising a difficult task is uncertainties in the impulse noise. The most knowledge in dayflies is uncertainty and erratic, unfortunately it is similar to impulse noise. The mathematic implements for handling uncertainty mostly are probability theory and fuzzy mathematics. That means, among the uncertainties involved in impulse noise, the randomness and the fuzziness ...

In recent years, VDSL2 standard has been gaining popularity as a high speed network access technology to deliver triple play services of video, voice and data. These services require strict quality-of-experience (QoE) and quality-of-services (QoS) on DSL systems operating in an impulse noise environment. The DSL systems, in-turn, are affected severely in the presence of impulse noise in the tel...

The paper describes a digital smear-desmear technique (SDT) based on polyphase multilevel sequences of unlimited length with good autocorrelation properties. A design procedure for digital implementation of SDT is defined and sequences with power efficiency higher than 50% are generated. These sequences are applied to the design of digital smear/desmear filters and combined with uncoded and cod...

An efficient noise reduction approach is proposed by combining Robust Outlyingness Ratio (ROR) which measures how impulse like each pixel is, with noise adaptive fuzzy switching median filter (NAFSM) and fuzzy c-means (FCM) segmentation. Based on the ROR values all the pixels are divided into four levels. Then in the coarse and fine stage introduce the NAFSM filter that optimizes the performanc...

In this paper, a novel decision-based filter, called the multiple thresholds switching (MTS) filter, is proposed to restore images corrupted by salt-pepper impulse noise. The filter is based on a detection-estimation strategy. The impulse detection algorithm is used before the filtering process, and therefore only the noise-corrupted pixels are replaced with the estimated central noise-free ord...

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...
