3d-Generalization Of Impulse Noise Removal Method For Video Data Processing

The paper proposes a generalized method of adaptive median impulse noise filtering for video data processing. The method is based on the combined use of iterative processing and transformation of the result of median filtering based on the Lorentz distribution. Four different combinations of algorithmic blocks of the method are proposed. The experimental part of the paper presents the results of comparing the quality of the proposed method with known analogues. Video distorted by impulse noise with pixel distortion probabilities from 1% to 99% inclusive was used for the simulation. Numerical assessment of the quality of cleaning video data from noise based on the mean square error (MSE) and structural similarity (SSIM) showed that the proposed method shows the best result of processing in all the considered cases, compared with the known approaches. The results obtained in the paper can be used in practical applications of digital video processing, for example, in systems of video surveillance, identification systems and control of industrial processes.
