Abstract

An algorithm for image noise-removal based on local adaptive window size filtering is developed. Two features for use in local spatial/transform-domain filtering are suggested. First, filtering is performed on images corrupted not only by additive white noise, but also by image-dependent (e.g. film-grain noise) or multiplicative noise. Second, the used transforms are equipped with a varying adaptive window size obtained by the intersection of confidence intervals (ICI) rule. Finally, we combine all estimates available for each pixel from neighboring overlapping windows by weighted averaging these estimates. Comparison of the algorithm with the known techniques for noise removal from images shows the advantage of the new algorithm, both quantitatively and visually.
