A quantum synthetic aperture radar image denoising algorithm based on grayscale morphology

Lu Wang, Yuxiang Liu, Fanxu Meng +4 more

The quantum denoising technology efficiently removes noise from images; however, the existing algorithms are only effective for additive noise and cannot remove multiplicative noise, such as speckle noise in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. In this paper, based on the grayscale morphology method, a quantum SAR image denoising algorithm is proposed, which performs morphological operations on all pixels simultaneously to remove the noise in the SAR image. In addition, we design a feasible quantum adder to perform cyclic shift operations. Then, quantum circuits for dilation and erosion are designed, and the complete quantum circuit is then constructed. For a 2 n × 2 n quantum SAR image with q grayscale levels, the complexity of our algorithm is O ( n + q ) . Compared with classical algorithms, it achieves exponential improvement and also has polynomial-level improvements than existing quantum algorithms. Finally, the feasibility of our algorithm is validated on IBM Q.

Realization of quantum mean filters with different sized on NEQR quantum images by QFT based operations

Engin Şahin

For some image processing algorithms such as edge detection and segmentation, filtering in the spatial domain is an important pre-processing to improve the quality of the image by removing the noise in the images. The time and memory requirements for processing also increase as the size of the images increases. Besides, excessive blurring of the image during noise removal operation can lead to excessive deterioration of image quality. Therefore, the balance between noise reduction and blur needs to be well adjusted. In this paper, a new quantum method for noise reduction on quantum images using QFT-based arithmetic operators is proposed and quantum circuits are designed. Mean filtering operators of different sizes are used to remove noise. First, the classical image is represented by the gray scale quantum image model, the novel enhanced quantum representation (NEQR) model. A quantum method is proposed and circuits are presented for the realization of Mean filters of different sizes on the basis of addition and division operations. Finally, the performance of the method is evaluated by presenting the circuit complexity of the method and the experimental results. In the proposed method, it is aimed to use less resources and reduce the circuit complexity. The optimal filtering operator size is investigated for the balance between noise reduction and image blur.
