Abstract

Noise removal plays vital role in image processing and also important pre processing task before performing post operation like Image segmentation etc. . This paper presents a effective and efficient algorithm in order to remove impulse noise from gray scale and color images. Challenging results show the superior performance of the proposed filtering algorithm compared to the other standard algorithms such as Standard Median Filter (SMF), Median Filter (MF), Weighted Median Filter (WMF) and Trimmed Median Filter (TMF). Furthermore, various performance metrics such as the MSE, PSNR and SSIM have been compared with Existing standard algorithms. The computational time for the denoised image is calculated for different noise levels and the proposed algorithm has lower computational time, hardware complexity and ease in operation. The obtained results prove that it has better qualitative analysis by improving visual appearance and challenging quantitative measures even at high noise densities ranging up to 90%.
