Traditionally, several existing filters are proposed for removing a specific type of noise. However, in practice, the image communicated through the communication channel may be contaminated with more than one type of noise. Switching bilateral filter (SBF) is proposed for removing mixed noise by detecting a contaminated noise at the concerned pixel and recalculates the filter parameters. Although the filter parameters of SBF are sensitive to type and strength of noise, the traditional SBF filter has not taken the strength into account. Therefore, the traditional SBF filter cannot remove the mixed noise efficiently. In this paper, we propose a smart switching bilateral filter (SSBF) to outperform a demerit of traditional SBF filter. In the first stage of SSBF, we propose a new scheme of noise estimation using domain weight (DW) pattern which characterizes the distribution of the different intensity between a considered pixel and its neighbors. By using this estimation, the types of mixed noises and their strength are estimated accurately. The filter parameters of SBF are selected from the table where the spatial weight and radiometric weight are already learned. As a result, SSBF can improve the performance of traditional SBF and can remove mixed noises efficiently without knowing the exact type of contaminated mixed noise. Moreover, the performance of SSBF is compared to the optimal SBF filter (OSBF) where OSBF sets the optimal value of filter parameters on the contaminated mixed noise and three new filters — block-matching and 3D filtering (BM3D), nonlocal sparse representation (NCSR), and trilateral filter (TF). The simulation results showed that the performance of SSBF outperforms BM3D, NCSR, TF, and SBF and is near to optimal SBF filter, even if the SSBF does not know the type of mixed noise.

Because of the characteristic of the gray relation analysis and the advantage of the alpha-trimmed mean filter, an efficient technique for mixed noise removal in images was proposed. This algorithm can adjust the filter coefficients adaptively according to various pieces of the image features. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm which greatly improved efficiently, it not only can remove mixed noise in image, but also can keep the details of the image.

A mixed noise removal algorithm combining adaptive directional weighted mean filter and improved adaptive anisotropic diffusion model is proposed. Firstly, a noise classification method is introduced to divide all pixels into two types as the pixels corrupted by impulse noise and the pixels corrupted by Gaussian noise. Then an adaptive directional weighted mean filter is developed to remove impulse noise, which can adaptively select the optimal direction template from twelve direction templates and replace the gray level of each impulse noise corrupted pixel by the weighted mean gray level of pixels on the optimal direction template. Finally, an improved adaptive anisotropic diffusion model is developed to remove Gaussian noise in the initial denoised image, which can finely classify image features as smooth regions, edges, corners, and isolated noises by characteristic parameters and variance parameter and conduct adaptive diffusion for different image features by designing reasonable eigenvalues of diffusion tensor. A large number of experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms many existing main mixed noise removal methods in terms of image denoising and detail preservation.
