VERMA, Atul Kumar  y  SAINI, Barjinder Singh. Forward-backward processing technique for image denoising using FDZP 2D filter. J. appl. res. technol [online]. 2017, vol.15, n.6, pp.583-592. ISSN 2448-6736.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jart.2017.07.001.

In this paper, a fractional differential zero phase (FDZP) 2D filter is constructed which is based on the technique of zero-phase filtering utilizing the concept of R-L integral with fractional differentiation. The constructed filter mask is used to denoise an image with the forward-backward processing which gives high robustness for images corrupted with Gaussian noise with varying degree of standard deviation and with speckle noise. The proposed FDZP 2D filter has high edge preserving capability that is also quantitatively evaluated using the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) performance measure. From the quantitative analysis, the PSNR value is much better than those obtained using Gaussian smoothing, Alexander fractional differential (AFD), Alexander fractional integral (AFI), anisotropic diffusion and kuan filters for standard and ultrasonic image of liver, respectively. The experiments illustrate that the improvements achieved are compatible with other existing filters.
