Abstract
In this paper, we present a multiple image filters for removal of impulse noises from test images. It utilises fuzzy logic (FL) approach to design a noise detector (ND) optimised by gravitational search algorithm (GSA) and utilises median filter (MF) for restoring. The proposed multiple filters used the FL approach to detect each pixels of a tests image are noise corrupted or not. If it is considered as noise-corrupted, the multiple filters restore it with the MF filter. Otherwise, it remains unchanged. We split the image into number of windows and each window apply the multiple filters. The filter output is used for the rule generation. The optimal rules are selected using GSA and given to the fuzzy logic system to detect the noise pixel. The experimental results are carried out using different noise level and different methods. The performance measured in terms of PSNR, MSE and visual quality.
