잡음 제거는 디지털 영상처리 과정에서 필수적으로 이루어지며, 다양한 분야에서 그 목적과 환경에 맞는 알고리즘을 개발하기 위해 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 기존 임펄스 잡음 제거 방법들은 영상의 에지 성분 및 고주파 성분의 잡음 제거에 다소 미흡한 성능을 보이고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 고주파 성분을 보존하기 위해 잡음 판단에 따른 잡음 밀도에 따라 마스크의 범위를 확장하였다. 선택된 마스크는 임펄스 잡음을 제외한 내부 화소의 메디안 값과 표준편차를 기준으로 화소 범위가 설정된다. 그리고 화소 범위에 존재하는 화소는 거리에 따른 가중치를 적용하여 최종 출력 계산에 사용하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 기존 방법에 비해 영상의 에지 부분 및 고주파 성분이 많은 영역에서 잡음 제거성능이 우수하였으며, 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 비교하였다.

In this paper, speech quality is improved by removing abrupt noise intervals and then substituting the gaps with estimates of the previous speech waveform. An abrupt noise detection signal has been proposed as a prediction error signal by utilizing LP coefficients of the previous frame. Abrupt noise intervals are estimated by using spectral energy. After removing estimated noise intervals, we applied several waveform substitution techniques such as zero substitution, previous frame repetition, pattern matching, and pitch waveform replication. To prove the validity of our algorithm, the LPC spectral distortion test and the recognition test are executed and, the results show that the speech quality is fairly well improved.

Large gains in speech intelligibility can be obtained using the SNR-based binary mask approach. This approach retains the time-frequency (T-F) units of the mixture signal, where the target signal is stronger than the interference noise (masker) (e.g., SNR > 0 dB), and removes the T-F units, where the interfering noise is dominant. This paper introduces two alternative binary masks based on the distortion constraints to improve the speech intelligibility. The distortion constraints are induced by a gain function for estimating the short-time spectral amplitude. One binary mask is designed to retain the speech underestimated (T-F) units while removing the speech overestimated (T-F)units. The other binary mask is designed to retain the noise overestimated (T-F) units while removing noise underestimated (T-F) units. Listening tests with oracle binary masks were conducted to assess the potential of the two binary masks in improving the intelligibility. The results suggested that the two binary masks based on distortion constraints can provide large gains in intelligibility when applied to noise-corrupted speech.

Analysis of the partial discharge signal, a technique to diagnose the stator winding insulation is a key function for the diagnosis of high voltage rotating machines and requires high precision. To satisfy this requirement, various denoising techniques such as filtering and differential methods were proposed. However, these techniques can not eliminate a adjacent induction noise that decreases reliability of the diagnosis. A simple novel denoising algorithm, therefore, is proposed for removing the adjacent induction noise in this paper. The algorithm shows good performance in the real partial discharge signals measured by 13kV class capacitive couplers installed at hydro-generator in Dae-cheong Dam.

본 논문에서는 두 가지 새로운 임펄스 잡음 검출기를 설계하고 총변량(total variation) 최적화를 통하여 영상에 존재하는 임펄스 잡음을 제거하는 방법을 제안한다. 설계된 임펄스 잡음 검출기는 적응 미디언 필터(AMF:Adaptive Median Filter)를 기반으로 하고 있으며 기존의 검출기에 비해 잡음검출의 정확도가 높고 영상의 디테일 정보를 잡음으로 오인하는 확률을 줄였다. 또한 제안하는 검출기는 잡음발생 확률에 무관하게 우수한 성능을 유지한다. 영상에서의 잡음제거는 제안된 검출기에 의해 얻어진 잡음후보 화소에 대해서만 총변량 최적화를 적용하므로 불필요한 계산을 줄이고 영상의 경계선을 잘 보존하면서 잡음을 제거할 수 있다. 실험결과 제안하는 2단 구조의 잡음제거 알고리즘은 다양한 형태의 잡음 밀도에 대해서 기존의 알고리즘에 비해 약 2dB 정도의 화질개선 효과를 얻었다.

This paper introduces a novel denoising algorithm for the partial-discharge(PD) signals from power apparatuses. The developed algorithm includes three kinds of specific denoising sub-algorithms. The first sub-algorithm uses the fuzzy logic which classifies the noise types in the magnitude versus phase PD pattern. This sub-algorithm is especially effective in the rejection of the noise with high and constant magnitude. The second one is the method simply removing the pulses in the phase sections below the threshold count in the count versus phase pattern. This method is effective in removing the occasional high level noise pulses. The last denoising sub-algorithm uses the grouping characteristics of PD pulses in the 3D plot of the magnitude versus phase versus cycle. This special technique can remove the periodical noise pulses with varying magnitudes, which are very difficult to be removed by other denoising methods. Each of the sub-algorithm has different characteristic and shows different quality of the noise rejection. On that account, a parameter which numerically expresses the noise possessing degree of signal, is defined and evaluated. Using the parameter and above three sub-algorithms, an adaptive complex noise rejection algorithm for the on-line PD diagnosis system is developed. Proposed algorithm shows good performances in the various real PD signals measured from the power apparatuses in the Korean plants.

Since SPOT4 satellite contained VEGETATION 1 sensor launched, the noise in VEGETATION data was occasionally arisen a difficulty for the data traitement. Blind line noise types were studied in VEGETATION-l short wave infrared channel(SWIR). In order to provide a precis product, the procedure for removing this noise is strongly recommended. In the case that the blind values are clearly distinguished from contamination-free values a simple threshold method was applied, while a changeable threshold method was used for the blind value mixed with contamination-free values. New algorithm presented in this study is consists of two method for each type of SWIR blind. After removing blind line, there were again some residual pixels of blind, because the threshold is not determinated sufficiently low. Lower threshold could remove the blind line as well as the contamination-free pixels. Nevertheless, the results showed a good qualitative improvement as compared with other algorithm.

이 논문에서는 AWGN환경에서 발생하는 가우시안 잡음과 발진기에서 생기는 시스템 잡음을 제거할 수 있는 ALE(Adaptive Line Enhancer) 기반의 새로운 적응형 잡음 제거기를 이용한 CW(Continuous-Wave) 바이오 레이더를 제안한다. 최근에 CW 바이오 레이더를 이용해서 심장박동과 호흡을 검출하는 연구가 여러 연구기관에서 진행 되고 있다. 그러나 이 연구들은 기존 CW 바이오 레이더가 가우시안 잡음에 취약하고 그로 인해 심장박동 검출정확도도 떨어진다는 점을 설명을 하고 있긴 하지만, 그 잡음을 효과적으로 없앨 수 있는 방안은 계속 연구 중에 있다. 본 논문에서는 기저대역 신호에 포함된 잡음을 효과적으로 제거할 수 있는 ALE기반의 적응형 잡음 제거기를 적용한 것을 제안한다. 또한 타겟의 위치에 따른 복조의 민감함에 강점을 가진 quadrature 수신기를 통과한 잡음이 포함된 기저대역 신호에서 잡음만을 효과적으로 제거함으로 인해 심장박동 검출 정확도를 향상시키는 것을 모의실험을 통해 비교 분석해 본다.

This paper describes the upgrade of an existing wave information retrieval algorithm by employing noise reduction in the pixel domain. Several algorithms for collecting wave information parameters from X-band radar image sequences including the wind field and current velocity have been developed over the past three decades. Using these algorithms, a band-pass filter (BPF) is applied to remove the non-wave contribution from the image spectra after the sea surface current velocity has been computed. However, such BPF designs have been both complex and insufficient in removing undesired components in X-band radar images. For this study, to improve the performance of wave information retrieval, an efficient noise reduction algorithm is incorporated into a regular wave information retrieval process. That is, the proposed algorithm was designed for operation in a more proper manner by effectively removing the undesired components in the pixel domain. Experiment results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm produces very close estimates to the buoy data records under undesirable noise conditions.

In order to apply the partial discharge measuring technique utilizing electrical pulse to the transformer at sites, this paper describes the measuring technique obtaining only the signals due to internal partial discharge in the transformer, but the noises due to external corona which has been a major problem so far. At first, partial discharge and corona noise were simultaneously generated in the model transformer by using needle-plane electrodes and rod-sphere electrodes out of it in a high voltage laboratory, respectively. It was verified that only the partial discharge signals in the transformer could be measured by removing the noise signals from the superposed signals of partial discharges and noises on the grounding wire of the model transformer. By application to a 345kV transformer in service, it was also confirmed that the partial discharge could be on-line monitored by removing the noise signals measured by the inductance sensor on the grounding wire of a 154kV lightning arrester from the superposed signals of internal partial discharge and external corona noise measured by bushing tap coupler of the transformer.
