Various digital devices were supplied throughout the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Accordingly, the importance of data processing has increased. Data processing significantly affects equipment reliability. Thus, the importance of data processing has increased, and various studies have been conducted on this topic. This study proposes a modified Gaussian filter algorithm based on a fuzzy membership function. The proposed algorithm calculates the Gaussian filter weight considering the standard deviation of the filtering mask and computes an estimate according to the fuzzy membership function. The final output is calculated by adding or subtracting the Gaussian filter output and estimate. To evaluate the proposed algorithm, simulations were conducted using existing additive white Gaussian noise removal algorithms. The proposed algorithm was then analyzed by comparing the peak signal-to-noise ratio and differential image. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has superior noise reduction performance and improved performance compared to the existing method.

In the process of image acquisition, transmission and storage, image degradation occurs due to various reason, the mainly reason is noise. To restore basic methods used images of impulse noise pollution by SM, AF, CWMF. In this paper, using the modified filter to remove impulse noise. The method consists of detection and noise filtering of the noise signal. For a non-noise signal is intact, the noise signal is filtered according to the algorithm. And then through the simulation is compared with known basic methods, with PSNR as judged by reference.

In digital images, the addition due to noise occurs in the process of obtaining, saving, and transmitting. For examples of noise, there are salt and pepper noise, Gaussian noise, and composition noise where various noises are mixed. Existing filters have insufficient noise removal characteristics because it uses single filters in composite noise environment. Therefore the study suggested a switching filter that processes with special weighted value and median filter according to local mask salt and pepper noise density when central pixel is damaged by salt and pepper noise, and processes by applying weighted values differently according to standard deviation of local mask when damaged by Gaussian noise.

In the present paper, it removed the low frequency noise under 1Hz which get up base wandering from the various noise which is included in ECG signals. It used wavelet filter, FIR filter and Adaptive FIR filter and compared the efficiency of the filter. The set condition of 3 kind filters which are the comparative object is the next contents. Used wavelet case, used generating functions db7 and after decomposition, the low frequency of 8 phases (cA8) replaced at 0. FIR filter case, filter coefficient set 1400, cutoff frequency (${\omega}$) set 0.002. Adaptive FIR filter case, collecting coefficients (${\mu}$) with 0.005. The comparative result from the output wave shape and FT spectrum, wavelet is excellent in base wandering removals compared FIR filter and Adaptive FIR filter. And SNR comparisons, wavelet filter(44.16) is high compare with other two filters(25.19 and 15.94).

This paper proposes a composite filter for noise reduction of image. To improve the image quality by reducing the noise in the liver ultrasound image, we tried to help the accurate image analysis. In the experiment, the top seven composite filters were selected by combining the Gaussian blur filter, the sharpening filter, and the median filter using the ATS-539 ultrasonic phantom, and applied to the ultrasound image in which this was done. As a result, it was found that the values of SNR, CNR and MSR all increased when the top seven composite filters were applied. In addition, PSNR of more than 30 dB, close to SSIM 1 showed that the image loss rate is small. Therefore, the appropriate application of the proposed composite filter in this research will be useful for accurate video reading and analysis.

High-amplitude swell noises (HASN) are very difficult to eliminate from the marine seismic data. In this paper, we applied F-X filter and median filter in order to suppress HASN. Test data have been acquired on the northern offshore of the South Shetland Islands in December, 2010. Parts of data have been contaminated by HASN caused by bad weather during the cruise. We applied F-X filter and median filter to test data with HASN. After F-X filtering, most of non-coherent noises and small-amplitude swell noises are eliminated effectively but HASN are still remained significantly. With median filter, HASN was suppressed better than F-X filter, however some of non-coherent noises are still remains. We applied a cascade of two filters and results show HASN and non-coherent noises are suppressed effectively. After the cascade of two filtering, it is possible to define reflection layers clearly on the velocity spectrum and to produce better stacked section with a good signal-to-noise ratio.

As society has developed rapidly toward a highly advanced digital information age, a multimedia communication service for acquisition, transmission and storage of image data as well as voice has being commercialized. However, image data is always corrupted by various noises during image processing, so researches for removing noises have been continued until now. There are diverse types of noise on the image including salt and pepper noise, AWGN, and mixed noise. Hence, the filter algorithm for the image recovery was proposed that salt and pepper noise was processed by linear interpolation, histogram weighted values and median filter after defining the noise to lessen the impact of mixed noise added in the image, and AWGN was processed by the pixel information of local mask establishing the weighted values in this study. In addition, the algorithm was compared with the conventional methods for objectively and used the PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) as the basis of the determination.

Noises are usually generated by various external causes and low quality devices in image data acquisition and recording as well as by channel interference in image transmission. Since these noise signals result in the loss of information, subsequent image processing is subject to the corruption of the original image. In general, image processing is performed in the mixed noise environment where common types of noise, known to be Gaussian and impulse, are present. This study proposes an iterative weighted mean filter for reducing mixed type of noise. Impulse noise pixels are first turned off in the input image, then $3{\times}3$ sliding window regions are processed by replacing center pixel with the result of weighted mean mask operation. This filtering processes are iterated until all the impulse noise pixels are replaced. Applied to images corrupted by Gaussian noise with ${\sigma}=10$ and different levels of impulse noise, the proposed filtering method improved the PSNR by up to 12.98 dB, 1.97 dB, 1.97 dB respectively, compared to SAWF, AWMF, MMF when impulse noise desities are less than 60%.

Images are often corrupted by impulse noise due to a noise sensor or channel transmission errors. The filter based on SVM(Support Vector Machine) and the improved adaptive median filtering is proposed to preserve image details while suppressing impulse noise for image restoration. Our approach uses an SVM impulse detector to judge whether the input pixel is noise. If a pixel is detected as a noisy pixel, the improved adaptive median filter is used to replace it. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed filter, extensive simulation experiments have been conducted under both salt-and-pepper and random-valued impulse noise models to compare our method with many other well known filters in the qualitative measure and quantitative measures such as PSNR and MAE. Experimental results indicate that the proposed filter performs significantly better than many other existing filters.

배경 잡음에 의해 저하된 음성을 복원하는 기술은 이미 오래 전부터 여러 가지 기법들이 연구되어왔다. 이들 기법 중, Spectral Subtraction 기법은 단일 채널에 의한 Speech Enhancement의 대표적인 방법이다. 그러나, 기존의 단일 채널 Speech Enhancement 기법의 중요한 단점은 Musical Noise라 불리는 잔존 Noise의 발생 및 목적신호가 왜곡된다는 것이다. 이 잔존 Noise에 의해 지금까지 연구 보고된 단일 채널 Speech Enhancement기법들은 거의 대부분 SNR은 향상되었지만 명료도의 향상이 곤란하였다고 보고되어왔다. 그러므로, 본 연구에서는 인간의 청각기구의 지각과정을 충실히 모방한 ROEX(Rounded Exponential) 청각 Filter를 이용하여 잔존 Noise인 Musical Noise를 억제시키는 기법을 제안하고자 한다.
