Wiener Filter:
The wiener filter is used to convert the input image to desired output image in the best way as possible. The best-first solution is taken to be when the sums of the squares of the errors are minimum, where the error is the difference between a measured value and the calculated value (least-squares method). This method is intended to remove white noise from the data. The inverse filtering is a restoration technique for deconvolution, i.e., when the image is blurred by known low pass filter, it is possible to recover the image by inverse filtering or generalized inverse filtering however, inverse filtering is very sensitive to additive noise. The approach of reducing degradation at a time allows us to develop a restoration algorithm for each type of degradation and simply combine them; the wiener filtering executes an optimal tradeoff inverse filtering and noise smoothing. It removes the additive noise and inverts the blurring simultaneously. The wiener filtering is optimal in terms of the mean square error. The approach is based on a stochastic framework; the orthogonality principle implies that the wiener filter in Fourier domain can be expressed as follows:

w( f1 , f 2 ) =

( f1 , f 2 ) S xx ( f1 , f 2 ) ] [H 2 ( f1 , f 2 ) S xx ( f1 , f 2 ) + S nn ( f1 , f 2 ) ]
*

[H

where sxx(f1,f2), snn(f1,f2) power spectra of image and the addition are respectively noise, and H*(f1,f2) is the blurring filter it is easy to be noted that the wiener filter has two spectra part, an inverse filtering (high pass filtering ) but also removes the noise with compression operation (low pass filtering )

And v(n) is the noise source (reference), v'(n) corrupting noise, s(n) signal of interest (say, a sine wave), and u(n) is the signal plus noise input signal.
