Title A name given to the resource A Study of Preprocessing Techniques on Digital Microscopic Blood Smear Images to Detect Leukemia Subject The topic of the resource Bilateral; Gaussian; Leukemia; Median; Noise reduction; Wiener Description An account of the resource Digital microscopic blood smear images can get distorted due to the noise as a result of excessive staining during slide preparation or external factors during the acquisition of images. Noise in the image can affect the output of further steps in image processing and can have an impact on the accuracy of results. Hence, it is always better to denoise the image before feeding it to the automatic diagnostic system. There are many noise reduction filters available; the selection of the best filter is also very important. This paper presents a comparative study of some common spatial filters like wiener filter, bilateral filter, Gaussian filter, median filter and mean filter which are efficient in noise reduction, along with their summary and experimental results. Performing comparative analysis of result based on PSNR, SNR and MSE values, it can be determined that median filter is most suitable method for denoising digital blood smear images. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
