A GPU-accelerated real-time NLMeans algorithm for denoising color video sequences

Abstract. The NLMeans filter, originally proposed by Buades et al., is a very popular filter for the removal of white Gaussian noise, due to its simplicity and excellent performance. The strength of this filter lies in exploiting the repetitive …

Locally adaptive complex wavelet-based demosaicing for color filter array images

A new approach for wavelet-based demosaicing of color filter array (CFA) images is presented. It is observed that conventional wavelet-based demosaicing results in demosaicing artifacts in high spatial frequency regions of the image. By proposing a …

EM-based estimation of spatially variant correlated image noise

In image denoising applications, noise is often correlated and the noise energy and correlation structure may even vary with the position in the image. Existing noise reduction and estimation methods are usually designed for stationary white Gaussian …

Noise removal from images by projecting onto bases of principal components

In this paper, we develop a new wavelet domain statistical model for the removal of stationary noise in images. The new model is a combination of local linear projections onto bases of Principal Components, that perform a dimension reduction of the …
