R. Kotynski et al., COMPARISON OF THE PERFORMANCE OF LINEAR AND NONLINEAR FILTERS IN THE PRESENCE OF NONERGODIC NOISE, Journal of the Optical Society of America. A, Optics, image science,and vision., 14(9), 1997, pp. 2162-2167
We analyze the performance of linear and nonlinear filters in the pres
ence of nonergodic noise. Using numerical simulations, we show that in
this case nonlinear filters perform better than linear ones. The crit
erion that we use to compare the efficiency of the various filters is
the probability of correct location, which has a clear statistical mea
ning. (C) 1997 Optical Society of America.
