An image denoising method based on spatial filtering is proposed on order to overcoming the shortcomings of traditional denoising methods in this paper. The method combined mean mask algorithm with median filtering technique is able to replace the gray values of noisy image pixel by the mean or median value in its neighborhood mask matrix and highlight the characteristic value of the image. Peak signal to noise ratio and mean square error are used as the evaluation index in this method and comparison between mean filter and median filter is done. The experimental results show that this denoising system makes the images have a high signal to noise ratio and integrity of edge details and take into account real-time, and fast response characteristic of the system.

Filtering Effect

Aimed at the correlation between noise pixels and neighboring pixels, a new method based on the-support vector regression (-SVR) is proposed to remove the salt & pepper noise in corrupted images. The new algorithm first takes a decision whether the pixel under test is noise or not by comparing the block uniformity of the 3x3 window with one of the entire image, secondly adjusts adaptively the size of filtering window which is used to determine the training set according to the number of noise points in the window, thirdly determines the decision function that is used to predict the gray value of the noise pixels by means of training set, finally removes the noises in terms of the decision function based on-SVR. Experimental results clearly indicate that the proposed method has a better filtering effect than the existing methods such as standard mean filter, standard median filter, adaptive median filter by means of visual quality and quanti-tative measures.

AbstractElectrocardiogram (ECG) is a widely used tool for the early diagnosis and evaluation of cardiac disorders. The ECG signal is usually distorted during recording by different types of noise which may lead to incorrect diagnosis. Therefore, clear ECG signals are required to support good cardiac disorder diagnosing. In this paper, an efficient ECG denoising method using combined discrete wavelet with Savitzky-Golay (S-G) filter is proposed. The performance of S-G filter is studied in terms of polynomial degree and frame size, i.e. signal section. In addition, the performance of denoising wavelet is studied in term of mother wavelet type and wavelet order. The advantage of S-G filter is combined with discrete wavelet denoising method to get better denoising performance. The performance of denoising ECG are evaluated using signal to noise ratio (SNR) and percentage root mean square difference (PRD). For this we used simulated and gaussian white noise surrogated ECG signals. Our results show that combined S-G and wavelet filter denoising is noticeable better than the respective individual procedures. In addition, we found that the selection of frame size, order of the S-G filter and the wavelet type and order should be done carefully in order to get optimal results. It also holds true for the new filter that the optimal choice of filter parameters is a compromise between noise reduction and distortion.

The electrocardiogram (ECG) signal can easily be affected by various types of noises while being recorded, which decreases the accuracy of subsequent diagnosis. Therefore, the efficient denoising of ECG signals has become an important research topic. In the paper, we proposed an efficient ECG denoising approach based on empirical mode decomposition (EMD), sample entropy, and improved threshold function. This method can better remove the noise of ECG signals and provide better diagnosis service for the computer-based automatic medical system. The proposed work includes three stages of analysis: (1) EMD is used to decompose the signal into finite intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), and according to the sample entropy of each order of IMF following EMD, the order of IMFs denoised is determined; (2) the new threshold function is adopted to denoise these IMFs after the order of IMFs denoised is determined; and (3) the signal is reconstructed and smoothed. The proposed method solves the shortcoming of discarding the first-order IMF directly in traditional EMD denoising and proposes a new threshold denoising function to improve the traditional soft and hard threshold functions. We further conduct simulation experiments of ECG signals from the MIT-BIH database, in which three types of noise are simulated: white Gaussian noise, electromyogram (EMG), and power line interference. The experimental results show that the proposed method is robust to a variety of noise types. Moreover, we analyze the effectiveness of the proposed method under different input SNR with reference to improving SNR ( SNR imp ) and mean square error ( MSE ), then compare the denoising algorithm proposed in this paper with previous ECG signal denoising techniques. The results demonstrate that the proposed method has a higher SNR imp and a lower MSE . Qualitative and quantitative studies demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is a good ECG signal denoising method.
