Regeneration Filter: Enhancing Mosaic Algorithm for Near Salt & Pepper Noise Reduction by Ratko M. Ivković, Ivana M. Milošević, Zoran N. Milivojević

“…This paper presents a Regeneration filter for reducing near Salt-and-Pepper (nS&P) noise in images, designed for selective noise removal while simultaneously preserving structural details. Unlike conventional methods, the proposed filter eliminates the need for median or other filters, focusing exclusively on restoring noise-affected pixels through localized contextual analysis in the immediate surroundings. …”
