[17]Noise identification and denoising from the grayscale image; Noise: impulse noiseDataset: Baboon, Cameraman, Lena, peppers, and Pemaquid images (512 × 512 image resolution)Accuracy: PSNR = 47.278, SSIM = 0.978, SDME = 61.637The image size is only five; Identify only noisy pixels
[29]Noises: impulse and electronic; Statistical features: kurtosis and skewness fed to the ANNDataset: Kaggle dataset of natural images; Two hundred images of both noises. Training 60%, testing 40%Accuracy 94.37%Lesser number of images are considered for training and testing
[13]Noises: Gaussian; Estimate noise level using DWT coefficientsDataset: MRI images of T1 and T2 weightedEstimate noiseNo classification
[30]Noise: Gaussian, speckle, line pattern stripes, and circle pattern ring; Two-cascaded CNN model is designedBSD dataset and 1,000 CT dataset from NBIA, 300 SEM dataset from DartmouthPerformance measure: PSNR and SSIM; PSNR-37.46, SSIM-0.9001They are estimating the noise and denoising using CNN
[28]Noises: impulse, Gaussian, speckle, and Poisson; To reduce the computation time, the PCA filters are usedDataset: natural images from SIPI dataset– miscWe have carried out three experiments. Four types of noise combinations of noises; Overall accuracy 86.3%They are considered four types of noise impulse, Gaussian, speckle, and Poisson, with eight classifiers
[14]Noise: impulse; DCT to obtain the kurtosis in terms of a sum of absolute deviation to identify impulse noiseDataset: natural images USC-SIPI Image database; Size 170 images of different noise levelsAccuracy: 97%The data set is small and natural images. Considers only impulse noise
