%0 Journal Article %T Fuzzy Weighted Adaptive Linear Filter for Color Image Restoration Using Morphological Detectors %A Anita Sahoo %A Dr. Manu Pratap Singh %J International Journal on Computer Science and Engineering %D 2009 %I Engg Journals Publications %X A novel scheme for restoration of color images is presented. The proposed scheme has two phases; in the first phase it detects the pixels corrupted with impulse noise by employing the tools of mathematical morphology and the degree of noisiness is labeled by a fuzzy membership function. Subsequent phase uses a linear weighted filter that attempts to reduce noise in an efficient manner. Experimental results indicate that the proposed scheme provides a better restoration performance than many state of the art filters used for the same. The scheme is capable of preserving color and image details, while suppressing impulse noise effectively. %K Image Restoration %K Impulse Noise %K Morphological Operations %K Fuzzy Functions %K Adaptive Linear Filter %K Images in RGB and Lu*v* color space. %U http://www.enggjournals.com/ijcse/doc/IJCSE09-01-03-18.pdf
