Almost all the traditional median filters concern the removal of impulse noise having a single layer, whose noise gray level value is constant. In this paper, a new adaptive median filter is proposed to handle those images corrupted not only by single layer noise. The adaptive threshold median filter （ATMF） has been developed by combining the adaptive median filter （AMF） and two dynamic thresholds. Because of the dynamic threshold being used, the ATMF is able to balance the removal of the multiple-impulse noise and the quality of image. Comparison of the proposed method with traditional median filters is provided. Some visual examples are given to demonstrate the performance of the proposed filter.展开更多

Acccording to the characteristics of images polluted by impulse noises, they establish weight function combined with iterative algorithm to eliminate noises. In IAMF filter process, because the noise sixes do not participate in the computation, they do not influence the normal points in the image, therefore IAMF can retain the detail well, maintain the good clarity after processing image, and simultaneously reduce the computation. Experiments showed that IAMF have ideal denoising effect for the images polluted by the impulse noises; especially when the noise rates are more than 0.5, IAMF is mote prominent, even when the noise rotes are more than 0.9, IAMF can achieve a satisfactory results.展开更多

For the line structured light image, a ranked-order based adaptively extremum median （RAEM） filter algorithm on salt and pepper noise is presented. In the algorithm, firstly effective points and noise points in a filtering window are differentiated; then the gray values of noise points are replaced by the medium of gray values of the effective pixels, with the efficient points＇ gray values unchanged; in the end this algorithm is proved to be efficient by experiments. Experimental resuits demonstrate that the image blur, resulting into proposed algorithm can remove noise points effectively and minimize the protecting the edge information as much as possible.展开更多

First, unlike the traditional linear transformation methods, the relationships between F0s and spectral parameters are explored. In each component of the Gaussian mixture model （GMM）, the F0s are predicted from the converted spectral parameters using the support vector regression （SVR） method. Then, in order to reduce the over- smoothing caused by the statistical average of the GMM, a mixed transformation method combining SVR with the traditional mean-variance linear （MVL） conversion is presented. Meanwhile, the adaptive median filter, prevalent in image processing, is adopted to solve the discontinuity problem caused by the frame-wise transformation. Objective and subjective experiments are carried out to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the traditional F0 transformation methods in terms of the similarity and the quality.展开更多

This signal processing technique has been proven effective and robust for affording access to dual-frequency GPS signals. This paper introduces the signal dynamics and measurement models, describes the W o D bit estimation method, and corrects the mistakes of direct estimation of W bit in current semi-codeless tracking. Median filter is chosen as a smoother to find the best measurements at the current time among the history and current information. The Bayesian filter is used to track the L2 P（Y） code phase and L2 carrier phase recursively.展开更多
