Abstract:In this work a novel technique of impulsive noise removal in color images is proposed. The new approach is based on the calculation of costs of digital paths which link the central pixel of the processing window with its boundary. The minimum value of these costs serves as a measure of pixel impulsiveness. The output of the proposed filtering technique is a weighted average of the central pixel and its robust estimate, calculated utilizing the measures of corruption assigned to pixels in the local neighborhood… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
