Random Valued Impulse Noise Elimination using Neural Filter

A neural filtering technique is proposed in this paper for restoring the images extremely corrupted with random valued impulse noise.The proposed intelligent filter is carried out in two stages.In first stage the corrupted image is filtered by applying an asymmetric trimmed median filter.An asymmetric trimmed median filtered output image is suitably combined with a feed forward neural network in the second stage.The internal parameters of the feed forward neural network are adaptively optimized by tr aining of three well known images.This is quite effective in eliminating random valued impulse noise.Simulation results show that the proposed filter is superior in terms of eliminating impulse noise as well as preserving edges and fine details of digital ima ges and results are compared with other existing nonlinear filters.
