초록

디지털 영상 처리는 IoT 기술의 발전으로 폭넓은 분야에서 응용되고 있으며, 데이터 처리 과정에서 중요한 역할을 맡고 있다. 이러한 잡음을 제거하기 위해 다양한 기법들이 제시되었으나, 기존 임펄스 잡음 제거 방법들은 영상의 에지 성분의 잡음 제거에 미흡하며, 랜덤 임펄스 잡음의 영향을 크게 받는 단점을 지니고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 랜덤 임펄스 잡음 환경에서 에지 성분의 잡음을 효과적으로 제거하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 잡음의 수준을 판단하여 임계값을 계산하였으며, 기준치와 입력 화소값을 비교하여 필터링 과정을 스위칭하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 기존 방법과 비교하여 우수한 성능을 보였으며, 시뮬레이션 결과 영상의 에지 부분에서 효과적으로 잡음을 제거하는 모습을 보였다.

Digital image processing has been applied in a wide range of fields due to the development of IoT technology and plays an important role in data processing. Various techniques have been proposed to remove such noise, but the conventional impulse noise canceling methods are insufficient to remove noise of edge components of an image, and have a disadvantage of being greatly affected by random impulse noise. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an algorithm that effectively removes edge component noise in random impulse noise environment. The proposed algorithm calculates the threshold value by determining the noise level and switches the filtering process by comparing the reference value with the input pixel value. The proposed algorithm shows good performance in the existing method, and the simulation results show that the noise is effectively removed from the edge of the image.
