| Summary: | Image processing begins with image enhancement to improve the quality of the information existing in images for further processing. Noise is any unwanted object that affects the quality of original images. This always happened during the acquisition of images, which cause gaussian noise via photoelectric sensor. Also, impulse noise as well is introduced during transferring of some images from one place to another because of unstable network. Hence, these noises combine to form mixed noise in some images, which change the form and loss of information in the images. Filtering techniques are usually used in smoothing and sharpness of images, extraction the useful information and prepare an image for analysis processing. In this research, a novel technique of hybrid filter for enhancing images degraded by mixed noise has been exhibited. The proposed model of the novel filter uses the concept of two element composite filter. This technique improved the fusion of Median filter and Wiener filter to eliminate mixed form of noise from digital image created during image acquisition process. Composite Median Wiener(CMW) is not two filters in series, yet it can remove the blurredness, keep the image edges, and eliminate the mixed noise from the image. The result of CMW filter application on noisy image shows that it is an effective filter in enhancing the quality image.
