Adaptive Type-2 Fuzzy Approach for Filtering Salt and Pepper Noise in Grayscale Images

This paper proposes a novel adaptive Type-2 fuzzy filter for removing salt and pepper noise from the images. The filter removes noise in two steps. In the first step, the pixels are categorized as good or bad based on their primary membership function (MF) values in the respective filter window. In this paper, two approaches have been proposed for finding threshold between good or bad pixels by designing primary MFs. a) MFs with distinct Means...
