In this paper, we propose a Fuzzy Cellular Neural Network(FCNN) that is based on a-Least Trimmed Square Hausdorff distance(a-LTSHD) which applies Hausdorff distance(HD) to the FCNN structure in order to remove the impulse noise of images effectively and also improve the speed of operation. FCNN incorporates Fuzzy set theory to Cellular Neural Network(CNN) structure and HD is used as a scale which computes the distance between set or two pixels in binary images without confrontation of the feature object. This method has been widely used with the adjustment of the object. For performance evaluation, our proposed method is analyzed in comparison with the conventional FCNN, with the Opening-Closing(OC) method, and the LTSHD based FCNN by using Mean Square Error(MSE) and Signal to Noise Ratio(SNR). As a result, the performance of our proposed network structure is found to be superior to the other algorithms in the removal of impulse noise.

It is effectively removed noise in the image using FCNN(Fuzzy Cellular Neural Network) applying fuzzy theory to CNN(Cellular Neural Network) structure and HD(Hausdorff Distance) commonly used measures for object matching. HD calculates the distance between two point set of pixels in two-dimensional binary images without establishing correspondence. Also, this method is proposed in order to improve the operation speed. In this paper, $\alpha$-LTSHD(Least Trimmed Square HD) operator applying $\alpha$-Trimmed to LTSHD, one field of HD, is applied to FCNN structure, and it is proposed as the modified method in order to remove noise in the image. Also, it is made a comparison with the other filters by using MSE and SNR after removing noise using the FCNNS which are applied $\alpha$-LTSHD operator through the computer simulation. In a result, FCNN performance which is applied the proposed $\alpha$-LTSHD demonstrated the superiority to the other filters in the noise removal.

A Hausdorff distance (HD) is one of commonly used measures for object matching. It calculates the distance between two point sets of edges in two-dimensional binary images without establishing correspondences. This paper proposes three object matching algorithm using robust HD measures based on M-estimation, least trimmed square (LTS), and .alpha.-trimmed mean methods, which are more efficient than the conventional HD measures. By computer simulation with synthetic and real images, the matching performance of the conventional HD smeasures and proposed' robust ones is compared.
