Abstract :
A new multichannel filter based on a novel distance measure is proposed for colour image processing. The proposed methodology combines vector directional and vector magnitude based filtering. Simulation results indicate that the new filter suppresses impulsive as well as Gaussian noise and preserves edges and details
