INTKWCFIoNImage restoration is often defined as the process of reawering an original image fran a distorted version.bhenever the exact restoration is not feasible (this happens for e x w l e when a ramjan noise is involved in the distorting process) , the restoration problem becaDes an awoximation problem. One has then to define a distance between tw images and try to minimize the distance between the original to the case where the distorted image is the sun of image and its restored version. our paper is related the original image and a stationary white noise K a l m a n filtering techniques to the case of 2-D process.By extending the wel1-m Wiener and signals, Helstran [l] , Pratt [2] , Nahi [3], Habibi [41 , A t t a s i 151 , Aboutalib et al. [61, woods and Radewan (71, Arvlrews and Hunt [dl have proposed various algorithns to perform the restoration. 'Ihese algorithrs have i n caamn two basic assunptions.F i r s t , the original image is considered to be the Second, the distance between two images is an L~ realization of a 2-D stationary randcla process distance, generally a mean-quare error between two randcm processes. AS a v n c e of those assurqtions, the restored image 1s obtained as the output of 2-D linear filter whs? irplt is the noisy image.The algorithus differ i n the type of f i l t e r s chosen (recursive or nowrecursive) tut all of them are essentially lowpss filters. This is due to the fact that the noise is supposed to be wider-band than the signal. They are also stationary f i l t e r s due to the stationarity assamption for the image m o d e l .Unforttnately, these a s a q t i o n s a d their consqmces produce unsatisfactory results &m dealirq with images. Edges which are often of great matter of fact, edges can be viewed as. highfrequency interest, are smeared by the l-pass f i l t e r s . AS a information of the original image that is not taken into account in the ucdel. Another way t o look a t it, is to interpret edges as locations i n the image where the model changes, contrary t o the staticnarity assumption. w a r d i n g these issues more recent work i n restoration of noisy images has tried to derive nmstationary and/or nonlinear algorithus.
