An Empirical Study of Periodic Noise Filtering in Fourier Domain: an Introduction to Novel Autonomous Periodic Noise Removal Algorithms

Quasi periodic noise or moiré patterns are one of the complex noise models that are responsible for the various errors in X-ray imaging and in other image transmission applications. This book demonstrates an empirical study of various linear and non linear notch filters in Fourier domain. The book also explores a novel machine learning (Bagging) based periodic noise removal technique. The method can be used as an automated techniques to highlight and remove the periodic and quasi periodic noise from an image. A part of this book is dedicated to the design and implementation of image filtering tool in Fourier domain on Matlab platform.
