An Image Denoising Algorithm Based on Noise Detection
Jin Tao Liang · 2008
An efficient image denoising algorithm is introduced.Firstly,image pixels are classified into noisy pixels and noise-free pixels by four directional operators.Then an adaptive weighted median filter is designed to remove and restore the detected noisy pixels and keep the noise-free ones unchanged. Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm preserves image details well while removing impulsive noise efficiently,and its filtering performance is significantly superior to the classical median filter and some other typical and recently developed improved median filters.
