NAMF: A Non-local Adaptive Mean Filter for Salt-and-Pepper Noise Removal

17 Oct 2019  ·  Houwang Zhang, Yuan Zhu, Hanying Zheng ·

In this paper, a novel algorithm called a non-local adaptive mean filter (NAMF) for removing salt-and-pepper (SAP) noise from corrupted images is presented. We employ an efficient window detector with adaptive size to detect the noise, the noisy pixel will be replaced by the combination of its neighboring pixels, and finally we use a SAP noise based non-local mean filter to reconstruct the intensity values of noisy pixels. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that NAMF can obtain better performance in terms of quality for restoring images at all levels of SAP noise.
