Fuzzy-Similarity-Based Image Noise Cancellation

We introduce a new approach for image noise cancellation based on fuzzy similarity. The proposed method allows for simple tuning of fuzzy filter properties and is very convenient for high-speed real-time processing. An example structure with estimated execution time is presented. Comparisons with other image noise cancellation techniques show the advantages of the method.
