A new technique for guided filter based image denoising using modified cuckoo search optimization

作者：

Highlights：

• Edge preserving optimal guided filtering-based image denoising is proposed.

• Inclusion of Markov Random Field based Energy Minimization based cost function.

• Behavioural/Adaptive guidance image is computed through unsharp masking.

• Optimal guided filter designing is proposed by employing the Swarm intelligence.
