<Abstract>

In this paper, we propose a new impulse noise detecter for color images. In our method, we use absolute deviation and spatial relations between the color components. Proposed method reduces undetected noise pixels and misdetected pixels compared to conventional ones. Extensive simulations indicate that proposed method performs significantly better than comventional ones.
