Abstract
Noise in television signals degrades both the image quality and the performance of image coding algorithms. This paper describes a nonlinear temporal filtering algorithm using motion compensation for reducing noise in image sequences. A specific implementation for NTSC composite television signals is described, and simulation results on several video sequences are presented. This approach is shown to be successful in improving image quality and also improving the efficiency of subsequent image coding operations.Keywords
