  • Recently, digital image processing is being applied in various areas of broadcasting, communication, computer graphic and medical science. But, degradation of images occurs in the process of digital image acquisition, processing and transmission. Therefore, in order to remove the mixed noise, this paper suggested the image restoration algorithm to process salt and pepper noise with weighted filters according to 4 direction pixel changes after judging the noise and to process AWGN with weighted filters which have individually different characteristics. Regarding the processed results by applying Boat images which were corrupted by salt and pepper noise(P=40%), suggested algorithm showed the improvement by 1.33[dB], 1.41[dB], 0.51[dB] respectively compared with the existing CWMF, AWMF, MMF.

  • Currently, as IoT technology develops, monitoring systems are being used in various fields, and image processing is being used in various forms. Image data causes noise due to various causes during the transmission and reception process, and if it is not removed, loss of image information or error propagation occurs. Therefore, denoising images is essential. Typical methods of eliminating Salt and Pepper noise in images include AF, MF, and A-TMF. However, existing methods have the disadvantage of being somewhat inadequate in high-density noise. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an algorithm for determining noise for Salt and Pepper denoising and replacing the central pixel with an original pixel if it is non-noise, and processing the filtering mask by segmenting and averaging it in eight directions. We evaluate the performance by comparing and analyzing the proposed algorithms with existing methods.

  • In recent years, the demand for image-processing technology in digital marketing has increased due to the expansion and diversification of the digital market, such as video, security, and machine intelligence. Noise-processing is essential for image-correction and reconstruction, especially in the case of sensitive noises, such as in CT, MRI, X-ray, and scanners. The two main salt and pepper noises have been actively studied, but the details and edges are still unsatisfactory and tend to blur when there is a lot of noise. Therefore, this paper proposes an algorithm that applies a weight-based Euclidean distance equation to the partial mask and uses only the non-noisy pixels that are the most similar to the original as effective pixels. The proposed algorithm determines the type of filter based on the state of the internal pixels of the designed partial mask and the degree of mask deterioration, which results in superior noise cancellation even in highly damaged environments.

  • In modern society, various digital communication equipment is being used due to the influence of the 4th industrial revolution. Accordingly, interest in removing noise generated in a data transmission process is increasing, and research is being conducted to efficiently reconstruct an image. In this paper, we propose a filtering algorithm to remove the AWGN generated in the digital image transmission process. The proposed algorithm classifies pixels with high similarity by selecting regions with similar patterns around the input pixels according to block matching to remove the AWGN that appears strongly in the image. The selected pixel determines the estimated value by applying the weight obtained by the local steering kernel, and obtains the final output by adding or subtracting the input pixel value according to the standard deviation of the center mask. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm, it was simulated with existing AWGN removal algorithms, and comparative analysis was performed using enlarged images and PSNR.

  • Recently, as demand of video processor unit rapidly increases, excellent quality of the video has been required. However, generally, video data occurs the quick flame of video due to various external causes in process of acquisition, treatment, and transmission, and major cause of the quick flame of the video is known as the noise. There are various kinds of noise, which are added to the video, AWGN is a typical one. Thus, this thesis suggested algorithm that treats in three methods by scale of the edge through using edge information of local masks. In case that edge pixel is big, it applied spatial weighting according to equation of straight line about direction of edge pixel. In case that edge pixel is middle, it suggested algorithm with spatial weighting filter and average filter, and for the smooth territory, it suggested algorithm that treats with average filter.
