VLSI implementation of a modified min-max median filter using an area and power competent tritonic sorter for image denoising.

The prominence of image processing in today's cutting-edge technology is undeniable. Integrating software with hardware leverages both strengths, resulting in a real-time processing system that is efficient and streamlined. Raw images are usually affected by noise, which hinders the acquisition of good-quality and detailed images; hence, denoising becomes necessary.
