Abstract: This paper presents an algorithm for Salt and Pepper noise reduction which can be applied to binary, gray scale, and color formatted documents. The scheme combines the characteristics of the Applied kFill Algorithm and Median Filter Algorithm by using window sizes of 3x3 and 5x5, depending on the size of the Salt and Pepper noise. The goal of this technique is to increase the PSNR of picture images and improve the quality for scanning documents when using an optical character recognition (OCR) system. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme can remove Salt and Pepper noise better than the Applied kFill Algorithm and Median Filter Algorithm and can significantly improve the recognition accuracy of an optical character recognition (OCR) system.
Keywords: Applied kFill, kFill Algorithm, Image Processing, Median Filter, Noise Reduction, OCR systems, Salt and Pepper Noise.
