In this paper, the problem of de-noising of an image contaminated with additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) is studied. This subject has been continued to be an open problem in signal processing for more than 50 years. In the present paper,…
Most of existing image denoising methods assume the corrupted noise to be additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). However, the realistic noise in real-world noisy images is much more complex than AWGN, and is hard to be modelled by simple…
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an essential diagnostic tool in clinical settings but its utility is often hindered by noise artifacts introduced during the imaging process. Effective denoising is critical for enhancing image quality…

We propose an adaptive approach for non local means (NLM) image filtering termed as non local adaptive clipped means (NLACM), which reduces the effect of outliers and improves the denoising quality as compared to traditional NLM. Common…
