چکیده

A novel extension of the classical signal-adaptive median filter (SAM ) is proposed in this paper, namely the morphological signaladaptive median filter (MSAM ). Three modifications are introduced in the SAM filter aiming at: (1) enhancing the SAM impulse detection mechanism so that it also detects randomly-valued impulses, (2) employing an anisotropic window adaptation based on binary morphological erosions/dilations with predefined structuring sets and (3) extending its design for its application to image sequences as well. Its performance has been tested for noise suppression in both still images and image sequences. Its robustness against a wide variety of noise distributions as well as its superiority to the classical SAM filter are proved judging from both objective (SNR, MAE) and subjective (perceived image quality) criteria.

Improved Adaptive Median Filter Algorithm for Removing Impulse Noise from Grayscale Images

Digital image is often degraded by many kinds of noise during the process of acquisition and transmission. To make subsequent processing more convenient, it is necessary to decrease the effect of noise. There are many kinds of noises in image, which mainly include salt and pepper noise and Gaussian noise. This paper focuses on median filters to remove the salt and pepper noise. After summarizin...

A PRACTICAL APPROACH TO REAL-TIME DYNAMIC BACKGROUND GENERATION BASED ON A TEMPORAL MEDIAN FILTER

In many computer vision applications, segmenting and extraction of moving objects in video sequences is an essential task. Background subtraction, by which each input image is subtracted from the reference image, has often been used for this purpose. In this paper, we offer a novel background-subtraction technique for real-time dynamic background generation using color images that are taken fro...

An Adaptive Hierarchical Method Based on Wavelet and Adaptive Filtering for MRI Denoising

MRI is one of the most powerful techniques to study the internal structure of the body. MRI image quality is affected by various noises. Noises in MRI are usually thermal and mainly due to the motion of charged particles in the coil. Noise in MRI images also cause a limitation in the study of visual images as well as computer analysis of the images. In this paper, first, it is proved that proba...
