============
Rank filters
============
Rank filters are non-linear filters using local gray-level ordering to
compute the filtered value. This ensemble of filters share a common base:
the local gray-level histogram is computed on the neighborhood of a pixel
(defined by a 2D structuring element). If the filtered value is taken as the
middle value of the histogram, we get the classical median filter.
Rank filters can be used for several purposes, such as:
* image quality enhancement,
e.g., image smoothing, sharpening
* image pre-processing,
e.g., noise reduction, contrast enhancement
* feature extraction,
e.g., border detection, isolated point detection
* image post-processing,
e.g., small object removal, object grouping, contour smoothing
Some well-known filters (e.g., morphological dilation and morphological
erosion) are specific cases of rank filters [1]_.
In this example, we will see how to filter a gray-level image using some of the
linear and non-linear filters available in skimage. We use the ``camera`` image
from `skimage.data` for all comparisons.

# The added noise is efficiently removed, as the image defaults are small (1-\
# pixel wide), a small filter radius is sufficient. As the radius
# increases, objects with bigger sizes get filtered as well, such as the
# camera tripod. The median filter is often used for noise removal because it
# preserves borders. For example, consider noise which is located only on a
# few pixels in the entire image, as is the case with salt-and-pepper noise
# [2]_: the median filter will ignore the noisy pixels, for they will appear
# as outliers; thus, it will not change significantly the median of a group of
# local pixels, in contrast to what a moving average filter would do.
