An adaptive filtering algorithm based on genetic algorithm-backpropagation network (Q474374)

Summary: A new image filtering algorithm is proposed. GA-BPN algorithm uses genetic algorithm (GA) to decide weights in a back propagation neural network (BPN). It has better global optimal characteristics than traditional optimal algorithm. In this paper, we used GA-BPN to do image noise filter researching work. Firstly, this paper uses training samples to train GA-BPN as the noise detector. Then, we utilize the well-trained GA-BPN to recognize noise pixels in target image. And at last, an adaptive weighted average algorithm is used to recover noise pixels recognized by GA-BPN. Experiment data shows that this algorithm has better performance than other filters.
