Abstract

The image signal is often affected by the existence of noise, noise can occur during image capture, transmission or processing phases. noises caused the degradation phenomenon and demage the original signal information. Many studies are being accomplished to restore those signals which corrupted by mixed noise. In this paper, we proposed mixed weighted filter for removing Gaussian and impulse noise. we first charge the noise type, then, Gaussian is removed by a weighted mean filter and impulse noise is removed by self-adaptive weighted median filter that can not only remove mixed noise but also preserve the details. And through the simulation, we compared with the conventional algorithms and indicated that proposed method significant improvement over many other existing algorithms and can preserve image details efficiently.
