A mixed noise image filtering method using weighted-linking PCNNs ?
Image is often degraded by more than one type of noise. In order to design an efficient filter to remove mixed noise from image, this paper proposes a weighted-linking pulse coupled neural network (PCNN) model so as to construct a two-channel parallel noise filter using four PCNNs of this model. This filter detects noise using the pulses generated by neurons, and iteratively removes noise by the pixel signal variation of pulse neurons. The filtering parameters and the iteration stopping conditions are discussed. Experiments show that the proposed PCNN-based filtering method is fast and effective for removing single impulse noise, additional Gaussian noise, as well as the mixed noise of them.
