Salt and pepper noise generally occurs due to errors in the transmission channel or sensors and it lowers the resolution of the image and causes visual errors. To remove this salt and pepper noise, SMF(standard median filter), which represents simple algorithm and excellent noise removal performance, is widely used. However preservation characteristics in the pitch areas of the image is rather lacking. Therefore to effectively restore images damaged by salt and pepper noise, the study suggested a multiple filter that applies filters differently according to size by applying noise density threshold value of local mask on noise signal, while preserving non-noise signal.

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.

The audio and image signal are corrupted by various noises in signal processing, many studies are being accomplished to restore those signals. In this paper, the algorithm is proposed to remove additive Gaussian noise and impulse noise at one dimension signal like an speech signal. The algorithm is composed to remove Gaussian noise after removing impulse noise. And the method using wavelet coefficient accumulation is used to remove the Gaussian noise, and the median filter based on element deviation is applied to remove the impulse noise. Also we compare existing methods using SNR(signal-to-noise ratio) as the standard of judgement of improvemental effect.

Image signal is corrupted by various noises in image processing, many studies are being accomplished to restore those images. In this paper, we proposed a cascade filter algorithm for removing random valued impulse noise. The algorithm consists two steps that noise detection and noise elimination. Variance of filtering mask and center pixel variance are calculated for noise detection, and the noise pixel is replaced by estimated value which first apply switching self adaptive weighted median filter and finally processed by modified weight filter. Considering the proposed algorithm only remove noise and preserve the uncorrupted information that the algorithm can not only remove noise well but also preserve edge.

Image signal processing is applied in different areas due to diffusion of smart phone, computer, multimedia etc. However, image most is damaged by impulse noise, and the need of denoising technology for improvement of image quality is coming to the fore. The existing methods for denoising such as mean filter and median filter, but they represent poor denoising. Therefore, the removes impulse noise, this paper proposed the modified mean filter algorithm using standard deviation, and as a simulation result, the proposed method showed excellent denoising capabilities to the existing methods.

Modern societies need image processing technology as mobile phones, computers and multimedia etc. are supplied, and image signal processing is now applied in many fields. However, images are damaged by impulse noise from various sources; to restore the damaged images from impulse noise standard median filter has been used as a typical method, but it makes errors at edge area lowering image quality. Therefore, in this paper average filter algorithm, in which mask is processed with multiple partition to remove impulse noise, is proposed. Simulation showed that the proposed method is superior in noise removal property to the existing ones.

In the transmitting process of image processing system, images always be corrupted by impulse noise, especially random-valued impulse noise. So removing the random-valued impulse noise is very important, but it is also one of the most difficult case in image processing. The most famous method is the standard median filter, but at edge, the filter has a special feature which has a tendency to decrease the preserve. As a result, we proposed a filter that detection random-valued impulse noise firstly, next to use efficient method to remove the noise and preserve the details. And through the simulation, we compared with the algorithms and indicated that proposed method significant improvement over many other existing algorithms.

Image processing is being spotlighted as an important sector with increasingly diverse applications as the society advances into a sophisticated digital information age. Especially, the image restoration as the core technology of image processing, many studies are being progressed. In this paper, in order to restore the damaged image in the Salt and Pepper noisy environment, a modified adaptive switching median filter where the size of local mask can be varied according to the noise density was proposed. And using the PSNR as the standard for objective decision making of the improvement effect, it was compared with the existing methods.

In the process of transmitting images, there are several different underlying causes of degradation that have been occuring. The main underlying cause of the degradation has been attributed to the noise. The most representive method of removal noise of image, which is caused by impulse noise, is using the SM filter. At edge the filter has a special feature which has a tendency to decrease. As a result, this paper we proposed the nonlinear filter using the form of mask and the probability of the impulse noise to restore the image considering edge quality in the impulse noise environment. And through the simulation, we compared with the existing methods and capabilties.

The modern society is advancing from the analog era to the digital imaging era, and in line with the trend of this era, various imaging devices such as exploration robots, medical equipment, and CCTV are helping our daily life a lot. However, noises caused by various causes in digital images not only cause image deterioration, but also deteriorate and deteriorate image quality. A typical noise is AWGN, and types of filters to remove it include an average filter, a median filter, and an alpha-trimmed average filter, but these filters have a disadvantage in that they show somewhat inadequate noise reduction performance in the high frequency region. Therefore, in this paper, a modified spatial division average filter based on standard deviation is proposed to effectively reduce AWGN existing in the high frequency region of the image.
