## Abstract Denoising of color images is a tradeโoff between sharpness of an image and perceived noise. We formulate a novel optimization problem that can maximize sharpness of an image while limiting the perceived noise under a model of visibility of additive random noise. We derive a closedโform

โฆ Synopsis
Noise suppression in multichannel data sets, such as color images, has drawn much attention in the last few years. An issue of paramount importance in designing color image filters is the determination of the coefficients that should be used to weight the inputs to the filter. In this study, we propose an evolutionary computation-based approach to select and optimize the coefficients in the class of weighted vector directional filters. Using a genetic algorithm, we were able to adapt the filter weights to match varying image and noise characteristics. Extended experimentation with realistic image processing applications, including television image enhancement and virtual restoration of artworks, indicates that the proposed filters are capable of removing noise while preserving chromaticity information, edges, and fine details, as well as structural image content.

## Abstract In this article, we study the modeling of interchannel dependency and its application into removing additive noise from corrupted color images. We start from an ad hoc spatially invariant linear interpolative model for characterizing colorโdifference and demonstrate how it can be jointl

A new encryption technique is proposed to encrypt color images using existing optical encryption systems for gray-scale images.
