Abstract
The large amount of artifacts on electronographic plates has to be removed automatically using fast digital filters. A group of one-dimensional non-linear recursive filters based on zero and first order estimates of the expected pixel value is investigated. Modifications are made when the difference between the pixel value and the estimate is larger than a given limit. A satisfactory performance can be achieved using a variable limit which depends on the estimate value and gradient. A comparison between these filters and a non-recursive median filter shows that the former is more efficient because a smaller size can be used.
