Hardware Implementation of a Parallel Noise Clearing Algorithm
نویسنده
چکیده
Dedicated hardware can be used to release the CPU of an image processing system, of routine image pro-processing tasks, thereby speeding up the operational speed of the system. This paper describes the hardware implementation of a one-pass fill, shrink and expand algorithm to clear random noise from an image. The three operations, comprising the algorithm, operate in parallel on a raster-scan image in a pipelined system. Simulation results are given, and the operating speed and cost are compared with those of a multiprocessor system using 8086.
