Abstract
A novel modification to the order statistics filters called the Adaptive Weighted-Local-Difference Order Statistics is shown that will act as a generic framework for the design of adaptive filters suitable for specific signal processing applications. To demonstrate the design of filters using this framework two implementations were defined and evaluated: Edge Orientation Adaptive Weighted-Local-Difference Median Filter (EOAWLDMF) and Luminance-Similarity Adaptive Weighted-Local-Difference Median Filter (LSAWLDMF) for restoration of noisy images.
