Impulse noise recuperation from grayscale and medical images using supervised curve fitting linear regression and mean filter

Abstract

Acquisition of images from electronic devices or Transmission of the image through any medium will cause an additional commotion. This study aims to investigate a framework for eliminating impulse noise from grayscale and medical images by utilizing linear regression and a mean filter. Linear regression is a supervised machine learning algorithm that computes the value of a dependent variable based on an independent variable. The value of the recuperating pixel is measured using a curve-fitting, direction-based linear regression approach or applying a mean filter to the noise-free pixels. The efficiency of the proposed technique experiments with benchmark test images and the images of the USC-SIPI and TESTIMAGES data sets. Peak signal-to-noise ratio and structural similarity index metrics are determined to prove the performance of the proposed method. The evaluated results, when compared with the seven recent state-of-the-art techniques, show the superiority of the proposed method in terms of visual quality and accuracy. The proposed model achieves an average PSNR value of 65.21dB and an SSIM value of 0.999 for the reconstruction of medical images, proving its accuracy and efficiency. The impulse noise restoration process helps the radiologist get a clear visual clarity of the DICOM image for diagnosis purposes.

Optimized in-loop filtering in versatile video coding using improved fast guided filter

“…The average bitrate is increased by a huge percentage with the presence of noise in images [14]. Hence, denoising techniques [15], [16] are required to combine with in-loop filters of coding standards for enhancing coding efficiency. Therefore, the proposed method of this paper is an improved fast-guided filter next to the deblocking filter in the VVC.…”

Design of inception architecture for skin melanoma classification

“…A machine vision application utilizing an image processing method established a new method of rice seed classification that applies hashing techniques for preprocessing image prediction [17]. The linear regression algorithm which calculates the value of a dependent variable, establishes an independent variable [18]. The hybrid bat algorithm and genetic algorithm model are employed on noisy medical images to reduce noise, and their performances have been determined by arithmetical analyses such as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) [19].…”
