A New Approach of Hybrid Switching Median Filter for Very Low Level Impulse Noise Reduction in Digital Images

Most of the image processing applications are greatly affected by the quality of images. Unfortunately, noise often contaminates images; yielding degradation of the quality of images. In order to overcome this flaw, a new filtering technique called the adroit hybrid switching median (AHSM) filter is...
