Abstract :
This paper addresses the problem of noise attenuation for multichannel data. The proposed filter utilizes adaptively determined data-dependent coefficients based on a novel distance measure which combines vector directional with vector magnitude filtering. The special case of color image processing is studied as an important example of multichannel signal processing
