Abstract-This letter presents a novel two-stage noise adaptive fuzzy switching median (NAFSM) filter for salt-and-pepper noise detection and removal. Initially, the detection stage will utilize the histogram of the corrupted image to identify noise pixels. These detected "noise pixels" will then be subjected to the second stage of the filtering action, while "noise-free pixels" are retained and left unprocessed. Then, the NAFSM filtering mechanism employs fuzzy reasoning to handle uncertainty present in the extracted local information as introduced by noise. Simulation results indicate that the NAFSM is able to outperform some of the salt-and-pepper noise filters existing in literature. Index Terms-Fuzzy reasoning, histogram, noise adaptive fuzzy switching median filter, salt-and-pepper noise.
