چکیده

We present a stereo image denoising algorithm. Our algorithm takes as an input a pair of noisy images of an object captured from two different directions (stereo images). We use either Maximum Difference or Singular Value Decomposition similarity metrics for identifying locations of similar searching windows in the input images. We adapt the Non-local Means algorithm for denoising collected patches from the searching windows. Experimental results show that our algorithm outperforms the original Non-local Means and our previous method Stereo images denoising using Non-local Means with Structural SIMilarity (SSSIM), and it helps to estimate more accurate disparity maps at various noise levels.

A New Shearlet Framework for Image Denoising

Traditional noise removal methods like Non-Local Means create spurious boundaries inside regular zones. Visushrink removes too many coefficients and yields recovered images that are overly smoothed. In Bayesshrink method, sharp features are preserved. However, PSNR (Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio) is considerably low. BLS-GSM generates some discontinuous information during the course of denoising a...

Bayesian ensemble learning for image denoising

Natural images are often affected by random noise and image denoising has long been a central topic in Computer Vision. Many algorithms have been introduced to remove the noise from the natural images, such as Gaussian, Wiener filtering and wavelet thresholding. However, many of these algorithms remove the fine edges and make them blur. Recently, many promising denoising algorithms have been in...

Comparative Study of Non-local Means and Fast Non –local Means Algorithm for Image Denoising

Visual information transmitted in the form of digital images is becoming a major method of communication in the modern age. All digital images contain some degree of noise. Removing noise from the original signal is still a challenging problem for researchers. In this paper, the non-local denoising approach presented by Buades et al. is compared and analyzed by Fast nonlocal means algorithm. Th...
