Polarimetric SAR Speckle Reduction by Hybrid Iterative Filtering by Yahia, Mohamed

“…An expression that takes into account the following important numerical considerations is proposed. 1) The variability of the pixel is measured by coefficient variation (CV) rather than the variance. 2) The statistics are computed using non-local neighborhood instead of local square one. 3) A new normalizing function (i. e. hyperbolic tangent) is implemented. 4) The dynamic of range of b k is increased by multiplying the CVs of the filtered and the originals images. …”
