COMPARISON OF DENOISING TECHNIQUES IN MONOCHROME AND COLOUR IMAGES
Visual information transmitted in the form of digital images is becoming a major method of communication in the modern age, but the image obtained after transmission is often corrupted with noise. The received image needs processing before it can be used in applications. Image denoising involves the manipulation of the image data to produce a visually high quality image. This paper reviews the denoising algorithms, using filtering approach, and performs their comparative study. The noise model which we have used that is Gaussian noise, salt and pepper noise,. Selection of the denoising algorithm is application dependent. Hence, it is necessary to have knowledge about the noise present in the image so as to select the appropriate denoising algorithm. The filtering approach has been proved to be the best when the image is corrupted with salt and pepper noise.. A quantitative measure of comparison is provided by the signal to noise ratio of the image as well as mean absolute error in the image Key words:-impulse noise, high density noise, median filter, non linear filter, Adaptive centre weighted median filter.
A Review : Various Image Denoising Techniques
International Journal of Computer Applications, 2014
Removal of noise is an essential and challengeable operation in image processing. Before performing any process, images must be first restored. Images may be corrupted by noise during image transmission through electronic media. Noise effect always corrupts any recorded image which is much more harmful for future process. To overcome the problem of noise level in digital images this paper present a review of different image denoising method. In this paper various filters are used for image denoising. This proposed method adopt first and second order mean filter (FSOMF) in which for first phase we detect the impulse noise. And the second phase which is also called as filtering phase replaces the detected noise pixel. Finally able to show in our experimental result of proposed method FSOMF, is capable of filtering of impulse noise.

Denoising an image is a significant problem in the processing of digital images. Any impulse noise damages the image and the aim of denoising is to remove noise and restore the high-quality image as much as possible. This paper aims to develop a method to discriminate between corrupted and uncorrupted pixels and develop a novel filter to denoise the image. It is also necessary to consider images with different level of noise of various applications to develop an optimal system to remove the noise for further processing. In this paper different filtering techniques such as Median-Filter (MF), Weighted -Median-Filter (WMF),Centre-Weighted Median filter (CWMF), and adaptive centre weighted median filter (ACWMF) are used for denoising, also a novel filter Asymmetric Trimmed Median Filter(ATMF) is designed which outperforms compared to the filters designed earlier. Experimentation is carried by considering the dataset size of 700 noisy images. The average PSNR value of proposed system is...
Review of Different Techniques for Image Denoising
akram dawood , 2018
In this paper, different techniques of image denoising that deal with removing or reducing different types of noise from a distorted image, are reviewed. Nowadays, the tendency is to speeding-up the applied algorithms to overcome the processing delay of the classical iterative methods (having 50 to 100 iterations or even more). This is apparent when dealing with high levels of noise. Since it is necessary to have idea about the noise present in the image to select the appropriate denoising algorithm, this paper state first a brief description of noise and its different types including Gaussian, salt and pepper and speckle noise. Image denoising techniques are then presented, namely; classical techniques (such as mean, order and adaptive filters) and transform-based techniques (such as wavelet and contourlet transforms).
An Efficient Algorithm for Image De-noising by using Adaptive Modified Decision Based Median Filters
ICST Transactions on Scalable Information Systems, 2022
INTRODUCTION: In image processing noise removal is a hot research field. Lots of studies have been carried out and many algorithms and filters have been planned to improve the image information. There are various noise removal procedures to identify and remove the corrupted pixels. But several image de-noising algorithms apply the filter to the overall image to filter non-corrupted pixels also. To overcome these weaknesses, we proposed an efficient denoising algorithm by cascading Adaptive Median Filter (AMF) with Modified Decision Based Median Filter (MDBMF). OBJECTIVES: To acquire an efficient denoising algorithm for impulse noise reduction by combining AMF and MDBMF methods which are effective, efficient for denoising various kinds of images. To retain the edges, prevent signal deterioration, and ensure non-corrupted image pixels are remaining intact, regardless of various degrees of noise in the image. To avoid the condition where noisy pixels are replaced by other noisy pixels to maintain the quality of images from its degraded noise version such as blur which often takes place during transmission, acquisition, storage, etc. METHODS, RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The performance corroboration of the proposed efficient denoising algorithmis accomplished employing nine standard grayscale images. The size of all standard images kept 256x256 pixels in this research. The proposed image denoising system has experimented on those images affected with 10% to 90% salt & pepper noise density. Additionally, the performance of the existing state-of-art denoising techniques like AMF, MF, WMF, UMF, and DBMF are contrasted with the proposed hybrid approach. The results showed that de-noised images obtained for 10% to 90% densities levels by proposed hybrid approach are quite better than the quality of denoised images achieved from WMF, UTMF, AMF, and DBMF methods. The proposed algorithm effectively eradicates salt and pepper noise for lower to higher image noise densities levels.

IMAGE DENOISING TECHNIQUES FOR SALT AND PEPPER NOISE., A COMPARATIVE STUDY
IJRCAR, 2013
Noise present in the image hides necessary details. It compromises with level of quality of image. So, it needs to remove the noise from images. We briefly describe and compare some recent advances in image denoising schemes. In particular, we discuss eight leading denoising algorithms, and describe their similarities and differences in terms of both structure and performance. With the help of these experiments, we are able to identify the strengths and weaknesses of these state of the art methods, as well as seek the way ahead towards a definitive solution to the long-standing problem of image denoising. In this paper, we make a survey on various denoising filters and conclude which works better among all.
An Efficient Noise Removal Algorithm Based on the Noise Density
Gray scale and color images are affected by salt and pepper (impulse noise) which is encountered frequently in acquisition, transmission and processing of images. Proposed method achieves restoration of noisy image by usage of highly efficient filters which adapt based on the existing noise density in the image. The proposed algorithm involves two stages: noise density calculation of the corrupted image followed by noise detection and filtering. As noise density increases, the window size is increased which gives better results. The proposed algorithm replaces the pixels with values 0 and 255 with the median of the window considered if the window also includes pixel values other than 0 or 255. If the window considered contains pixels with values 0 and 255 only then they are replaced by the mean value of all elements present in the selected window. Since the proposed algorithm chooses the filter based on noise density, it works better than Median filter, Progressive Switched Median Filter (PSMF), Untrimmed Median Filter (UMF) and Adaptive Median Filter (AMF) considered individually. The proposed algorithm is tested against different grayscale and color images and it gives better Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Image Enhancement Factor (IEF). The proposed algorithm is tested against different grayscale and color images and it gives better Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Image Enhancement Factor (IEF).
A Review of Image Denoisng Techniques
International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology, 2014
One of the most fundamental challenges in the field of image processing is image denoising, where the primary objective is to estimate the original image by removing noise from a noisy version of the image. Many algorithms have been proposed so far for removal of noise from the digital images. This paper review different image denoising techniques. It has been found that the most of the previous denoising techniques like gaussian filtering; bilateral filtering may remove fine details from the image. So a non local method known as non-local means solve this problem. This technique estimates a noise-free pixel as a weighted average of all similar pixels in the image. Non local euclidean median is a image denoising technique. Denoising performance of a noisy image improved by replacing the mean by the euclidean median and this new denoising algorithm the non-local euclidean medians (NLEM). This technique proves that the median is more vigorous to outliers than the mean
Impulse Noise Removal in Digital Images
2017
The paper presents a solution for removing Salt and Pepper noise ie. Impulse noise from digital images. It does so using feedback alogrithm and adaptive window mechanism for find-ing the values at the corrupted pixels in the image. A modified median filter based on a previous noise detection stage is used. The paper also compares other state-of-the-art algorithms for the removal of salt and pepper noise and result comparison with our proposed algorithm. The results show that the filters proposed achieved good results, outperforming other state-of-the-art algorithms for low and medium noise ratios, and were comparable for very highly corrupted images.
