Abstract

In this paper, we put forth a progressive, decision-based, two-phase image denoising algorithm for eliminating random-valued impulse noise from images. The manner in which this algorithm deals with noise is a completely pristine method when compared to the other existing image denoising algorithms. In the primary phase, the noise is dealt at a coarse level; in other words, the noisy pixels that are easily differentiable from the neighborhood are eliminated. In the secondary phase, fine-level image denoising is performed. In other words, the left-over fine scale noise in the detected corrupted pixels of the first phase, which cannot be straightforwardly differentiated from the surrounding pixels, is eliminated. In both the phases, separate mechanisms were followed to eliminate noise in the interior regions and edge regions. Hence, the algorithm is edge-detail preserving. Images with very high noise levels, in other words, with 70% noisy pixels were restored successfully. Speaking in terms of quantitative significant measures, the restored images in most cases were better than those of the other existing filters.
