By utilizing singular value decomposition (SVD) and shift averaged Harr wavelet transform (WT) with a set of Daubechies wavelet coefficients (1/2, -1/2), a method that can simultaneously eliminate an unwanted large solvent peak and noise peaks from NMR data has been developed. Noise elimination was accomplished by shift-averaging the time domain NMR data after a large solvent peak was suppressed by SVD. The algorithms took advantage of the WT, giving excellent results for the noise elimination in the Gaussian type NMR spectral lines of NMR data pretreated with SVD, providing superb results in the adjustment of phase and magnitude of the spectrum. SVD and shift averaged Haar wavelet methods were quantitatively evaluated in terms of threshold values and signal to noise (S/N) ratio values.

The design of filters for pattern recognition that have optimal trade-off for the criteria of noise robustness, peak sharpness and Homer efficiency, when input scene noise is spatially disjoint (nonoverlapping) with the target, are presented Three different criteria, ie, signal-to-noise ratio, peak-to-output energy ratio and light efficiency are used to design the filter. Computer simulation is made for the various types of noise and parameters to illustrate filter performance for optical pattern recognition. When we compare the new trade-off filter with the original optimal trade-off filter, the performance of trade-off filter for nonoverlapping background is better than that of trade-off filter for overlapping background.

The application fields of the image processing get gradually diversified as the society develops to the highly leveled digital information era and is highlighted as an important field. Especially, many studies on image restoration, a key technology in the image processing have been carried out. This paper proposed a filter which applies the directivity and spatial weighting based on the degraded pixels in order to restore the image degraded in the high density salt and pepper noise environment. In addition, this paper compared this filter with the current methods for objective judgment using PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) as a criterion of judgment.

In the transmitting process of image signal processing system, there are several different causes of degradation that have been occurring. The main cause of degradation is attributed to the noise. The most representive method of removing noise of image, which is caused by impulse noise environment, is using the SM(standard median filter). At edge, the filter has a special feature which has a tendency to decrease. As a result, we proposed a nonlinear filter that restores the image considering edge quality in the impulse noise environment. And through the simulation, we compared with the many of the conventional algorithms and the value of the PSNR(peak signal to nise ratio) is better than them and preserve the edge very well. So the nonlinear filter that proposed in this paper is excepted to help improve restoring the images that in impulse noise environment.

In this paper, we proposed a nonlinear synthesis filter for noise reduction to reduce the effects of Gaussian noise and impulse noise. When the centralization of the local mask is judged to be Gaussian noise by the noise judgment, the weight value of the weight filter are applied differently according to the spatial weight filter and the pixel change by using the sample variance in the local mask. And if it is determined as the impulse noise, we proposed an algorithm that applies different weights of local histogram weight filter and standard median filter according to noise density of mask. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed filter algorithm, we used PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) and compared existing methods and proposed filter algorithm in the mixed noise environment with Gaussian noise, impulsive noise, and two noises mixed.

In this paper, an aviation image fusion method is proposed for creating an informative fused image through gray scale images within noise. The proposed method is based on an adaptive guided filter which adjusts regulation parameter of the filter based on peak signal noise ratio (PSNR) in order to behave as an edge-preserving filtering property. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method preserves the edge information of the input image and reduces the noise effect while maintaining designed PSNR.

This study is to decrease compound noise in x-ray films. This study compared Signal to noise ratio(SNR), Peak signal to noise ratio(PSNR), Mean square error(MSE) to surface of the earth. In addition, we evaluated noise elimination effect according to the kernel size of Median filter. This experiments show that some filters are useful by finding image that is near in circle image comparing circle picture with each processed picture. In noise power value, when cutoff frequency was compared with other filters of cutoff frequency. Cutoff frequency of $2/3\pi{\sim}3/4\pi$ is good and it shows good SNR and PSNR. Therefore, it can display high filter effect. As Median Filter's Kernel size grows SNR value gets bigger, which shows better filter effect. Most pictures are distorted after filter application in medical treatment image. It is important to keep spatial resolution in most medical images. Visual estimation as well as quantitative indicators should be necessary for a better image.

Currently, with the rapid development in digital era, the image equipment related to multi-media is becoming commercialized. However, in the process of transmitting image data, deterioration occurs due to various causes, and the most representative deterioration is salt and pepper noise. There are many methods of eliminating salt and pepper noise such as SWMF, RSIF, MNRF, which are rather insufficient in eliminating noise in high-density slat and pepper noise environment. Therefore, in order to eliminate salt and pepper noise, this thesis proposes an algorithm by first judging the noise, and when the center pixel value is non-noise, the original pixel is preserved, and when it is noise, the partial mask is subdivided into 4 directions to apply cubic spline interpolation to the direction with most non-noise pixels. Also, for the objective judgement, it was compared to existing methods, and the PSNR(peak signal to nise ratio) was set as the judgement standard.

In this paper, we propose a method for improving raw images captured in a low light condition based on deep learning considering the image signal processing. In the case of a smart phone camera, compared to a DSLR camera, the size of a lens or sensor is limited, so the noise increases and the reduces the quality of images in low light conditions. Existing deep learning-based low-light image processing methods create unnatural images in some cases since they do not consider the lens shading effect and white balance, which are major factors in the image signal processing. In this paper, pixel distances from the image center and channel average values are used to consider the lens shading effect and white balance with a deep learning model. Experiments with low-light images taken with a smart phone demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a higher peak signal to noise ratio and structural similarity index measure than the existing method by creating high-quality low-light images.

Images are often corrupted by noises during signal acquisition and transmission. Among those noises, additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and impulse noise are most representative. For different types of noise have different characters, how to remove them separately from degraded image is one of the most fundamental problems. Thus, a modified image restoration algorithm is proposed in this paper, which can not only remove impulse noise of random values, but also remove the AWGN selectively. The noise detection step is by calculating the intensity difference and the spatial distance between pixels in a mask. To divide two different noises, the method is based on three weighted parameters. And the weighted parameters in the filtering mask depend on spatial distances, positions of impulse noise and standard deviation of AWGN. We also use the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) to evaluate restoration performance, and simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method performs better than conventional median-type filters, in preserving edge details.
