오실로메트릭 방법으로 휴대용 혈압 측정 시 빈번하게 발생하는 잡음에 의한 오실레이션 신호의 왜곡을 줄이기 위해 새로운 잡음 제거 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 잡음 제거 알고리즘은 선형 예측기 구조 기반의 적응 필터를 이용한다. 제안된 잡음 제거알고리즘의 성능을 평가하기 위해 왜곡된 오실레이션 신호에 선형보간법을 사용하는 기존의 방법과 적응 필터를 사용하는 제안된 방법을 적용하여 잡음 제거 성능을 비교하였다. 제안된 방법은 잡음이 오실레이션과 중첩되어 나타난 경우에 기존의 방법과 달리 잡음에 강인한 특징을 보여주었다.

This paper first proposes the speech recognition algorithm by detection of the speech and noise sections at each frame, then proposes the reduction algorithm of environmental noise by multi-band filter which removes the background noises at each frame according to detection of the speech and noise sections. The proposed algorithm reduces the background noises using filter bank sub-band domain after extracting the features from the speech data. In this experiment, experimental results of the proposed noise reduction algorithm by the multi-band filter demonstrate using the speech and noise data, at each frame. Based on measuring the spectral distortion, experiments confirm that the proposed algorithm is effective for the speech by corrupted the noise.

본 논문에서는 ELA(Edge Line based Average) 알고리즘이 잡음 영상에서 IPC할 때 생기는 문제점을 개선하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 먼저 잡음을 제거하는 필터링과 동시에 잡음이 없는 원화소의 크기와 잡음의 크기를 추정한다. 이에 따라 잡음의 크기를 고려하여 ELA 방법과 수직보간 방법에 가중치를 주어 보간값을 구한다. 이 후 잡음이 존재할 경우 포스트 필터링(Post Filtering)을 거쳐 잔재해 있는 잡음을 제거해준다. 실험결과 제안하는 알고리즘이 기존 ELA 알고리즘들 보다도 향상된 결과를 보인다.

This paper proposes spatio-temporal denoising algorithm based on nonlocal means. Though the conventional denoising algorithms based on nonlocal means have good performance in noise removal, it is difficult to implement them into the hardware system due to much computational load and the need for several frame buffers. Therefore we adopted infinite impulse response temporal noise reduction algorithm in the proposed algorithm. Proposed algorithm shows less artificial denoised result in the motionless region. In the motion region, spatial filter based on efficiently improved nonlocal means algorithm conduct noise removal with less motion blur. Experimental results including comparisons with conventional algorithms for various noise levels and test images show the proposed algorithm has a good performance in both visual and quantitative criteria.

Noise in image processing has a direct effect on the quality of the image, and adversely affects the processing of the system including algorithms such as image segmentation, edge detection, and image recognition. Therefore, noise reduction plays an important role in the preprocessing process. In this paper, we propose an efficient algorithm to remove noise in high density of Salt and Pepper noise. The proposed algorithm removes noise by gradually expanding the filtering mask according to the density of the noise, and shows excellent noise cancellation performance even in a high density region. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we compared and analyzed the existing method and the proposed algorithm through simulation.

Noise reduction has been actively studied in the digital image processing and recently, block-based denoising algorithms are widely used. In particular, a low rank approximation employing WNNM(Weighted Nuclear Norm Minimization) and block-based approaches demonstrated the potential for effective noise reduction. However, the algorithm based on low rank a approximation generates the artifacts in the image restoration step. In this paper, we analyzes the image content using the STFT(Short Time Fourier Transform) and proposes an effective method of minimizing the artifacts generated from the conventional algorithm. To evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme, we use the test images containing a wide range of noise levels and compare the results with the state-of-art algorithms.

In this study we propose an image denoising algorithm which manipulates the information obtained from multiple images in the same environment for mobile smart phones. We also envisage a multiple images registration method for mobile smart phone cameras equipped with limited computing ability and present an effective image denoising algorithm combining and manipulating the information obtained from multiple images. We proved that the proposed algorithm has much better PSNR value than the method applying single image. We verified that the propose approach has good denoising quality and can be utilized in the feasible level speed on Android smart phones.

This paper proposes a new adaptive algorithm to cancel the acoustic feedback and noise signals in the digital hearing aids. The proposed algorithm improves its convergence performances by canceling the speech signal from the residual signal using two microphones. The feedback canceller firstly cancels the feedback signal among the mic signal, and then it is reduced the noise using the beamforming method. To verify the performances of the proposed algorithm, the simulations were carried out for some cases. As the results of simulations, it was proved that the feedback canceller and the noise canceller advance about 14.43 dB for SFR, 10.19 dB for SNR respectively during speech, in the case of using the new algorithm.

Recently, two phase scheme for removing impulse noise in images is proposed. This algorithms first detect the noise candidates based on the adaptive median filter, and then apply optimizing techniques recursively only to those noise candidates to restore image. Thus the noise detector with high accuracy is important role on this algorithm, In this paper, novel noise detector is proposed, which can detect impose noise with high accuracy while reducing the probability of false detecting image details as impulses. And the method for reducing computational cost of regularization phase is presented also.

This paper proposes a new algorithm to cancel the acoustic feedback and noise signals in digital hearing aids. The proposed algorithm combines the feedback canceller to remove acoustic feedback signals and the noise canceller to reduce background noises. The feedback canceller is implemented by normal adaptive FIR filter, and the noise canceller is implemented by using the Wiener solution in frequency domain. This noise canceller has the transfer function presented by the power spectral density of signals. To verify the performances of the proposed algorithm, the simulations were carried out for the system. As the results of simulations, it was proved that we can advance 10.85dB output SNR on the average for the forward path gain of 0dB, and 11.04dB output SNR on the average for the forward path gain of 6dB, in the case of using the proposed algorithm.
