This paper presents a novel Hybrid Genetic Algorithm (HGA) for image denoising, whose main purpose is to restore images while preserving relevant information, for instance, texture and edges. The proposed method combines operators available in existing evolutionary methods, such as crossover, mutation and population reinitialization with some state-of-the-art image denoising methods. Experiments are...
