چکیده

The results of research on rank filters are presen ted. The relationship of rank filters with other filters is briefly discussed. The main properties of rank filters are listed and an explanation is given for these properties. Several software and hardware implementations of the filter are described. Major applications to image processing are discussed, including noise smoothing, cluster detection, skeletization, edge enhancement and edge detection.

A reduced-rank approach for implementing higher-order Volterra filters

The use of Volterra filters in practical applications is often limited by their high computational burden. To cope with this problem, many strategies for implementing Volterra filters with reduced complexity have been proposed in the open literature. Some of these strategies are based on reduced-rank approaches obtained by defining a matrix of filter coefficients and applying the singular value...

Realization of rank order filters based on majority gate

-A new technique for the implementation of a single hardware structure capable of computing any rank order filter is presented in this paper. The proposed technique, which is based on the majority gate, achieves faster extraction of setting flag signals and, therefore, shorter processing times are attained. A pipelined systolic array, suitable for performing rank order filtering, is also presen...

Extended permutation filters and their application to edge enhancement

Extended permutation (EP) filters are defined and analyzed. In particular, we focus on extended permutation rank selection (EPRS) filters. These filters are constrained to output an order statistic from an extended observation vector. This extended vector includes N observation samples and K statistics that are functions of the observation samples. The rank permutations from selected samples in...

Rank conditioned rank selection filters for signal restoration

A class of nonlinear filters called rank conditioned rank selection (RCRS) filters is developed and analyzed in this paper. The RCRS filters are developed within the general framework of rank selection (RS) filters, which are filters constrained to output an order statistic from the observation set. Many previously proposed rank order based filters can be formulated as RS filters. The only diff...
