Abstract

Recently, with the popularization of digital devices, the requirements of image quality is becoming higher and higher. However, the images are frequently corrupted in the image data processing, there are several reasons for this and the noise is considered as the main reason. Therefore, in order to alleviate the influence of AWGN(additive white Gaussian noise) in image, this paper puts forward the spatial weighted filtering algorithm. The algorithm set the weighted value according to the spatial distance, compared with the existing methods. The algorithm not only alleviated the influence of AWGN effectively but also reserved image details.

최근, 디지털 영상 장치들이 대중화되면서 화질에 대한 요구가 갈수록 높아지고 있다. 그러나 영상 데이터를 처리하는 과정에서 여러 원인에 의해 영상이 열화되며, 주로 잡음에 의한 것이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 영상에 첨가된 AWGN(additive white Gaussian noise)의 영향을 완화하기 위해 공간 가중치 필터 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 공간적 거리에 따라 가중치를 설정하였으며, 기존의 방법들과 각각 비교하였다. 새로운 알고리즘은 효과적으로 AWGN의 영향을 완화시킬 뿐만 아니라, 영상 세부정보도 보존하였다.
