This paper proposes the median-type filters with an impulse noise detector using the decision tree and the particle swarm optimization, for the recovery of the corrupted gray-level images by impulse noises. It first utilizes an impulse noise detector to determine whether a pixel is corrupted or not. If yes, the filtering component in this method is triggered to filter it. Otherwise, the pixel is kept unchanged. In this work, the impulse noise detector is an adaptive hybrid detector which is constructed by integrating 10 impulse noise detectors based on the decision tree and the particle swarm optimization. Subsequently, the restoring process in this method respectively utilizes the median filter, the rank ordered mean filter, and the progressive noise-free ordered median filter to restore the corrupted pixel. Experimental results demonstrate that this method achieves high performance for detecting and restoring impulse noises, and outperforms the existing well-known methods.

The fusion of multi-source sensor data is an effective method for improving the accuracy of vehicle navigation. The generalization abilities of neural-network-based inertial devices and GPS integrated navigation systems weaken as the nonlinearity in the system increases, resulting in decreased positioning accuracy. Therefore, a KF-GDBT-PSO (Kalman Filter-Gradient Boosting Decision Tree-Particle Swarm Optimization, KGP) data fusion method was proposed in this work. This method establishes an Inertial Navigation System (INS) error compensation model by integrating Kalman Filter (KF) and Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT). To improve the prediction accuracy of the GBDT, we optimized the learning algorithm and the fitness parameter using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). When the GPS signal was stable, the KGP method was used to solve the nonlinearity issue between the vehicle feature and positioning data. When the GPS signal was unstable, the training model was used to correct the positioning error for the INS, thereby improving the positioning accuracy and continuity. The experimental results show that our method increased the positioning accuracy by 28.20–59.89% compared with the multi-layer perceptual neural network and random forest regression.
