The bilateral filter is a useful nonlinear filter which without smoothing edges, it does spatial averaging. In the literature, the effectiveness of this method for image denoising is shown. In this paper, an extension of this method is…
The goal of blind image deblurring is to recover a sharp image from a motion blurred one without knowing the camera motion. Current state-of-the-art methods have a remarkably good performance on images with no noise or very low noise…
Tackling unsupervised source separation jointly with an additional inverse problem such as deconvolution is central for the analysis of multi-wavelength data. This becomes highly challenging when applied to large data sampled on the sphere…
In recent years, the removal of motion blur in photographs has seen impressive progress in the hands of deep learning-based methods, trained to map directly from blurry to sharp images. For this reason, approaches that explicitly use a…
Blind image deblurring, i.e., deblurring without knowledge of the blur kernel, is a highly ill-posed problem. The problem can be solved in two parts: i) estimate a blur kernel from the blurry image, and ii) given estimated blur kernel,…
This note is devoted to an analysis of the so-called peeling algorithm in wavelet denoising. Assuming that the wavelet coefficients of the signal can be modeled by generalized Gaussian random variables, we compute a critical thresholding…

Two-dimensional singular decomposition (2DSVD) has been widely used for image processing tasks, such as image reconstruction, classification, and clustering. However, traditional 2DSVD algorithm is based on the mean square error (MSE) loss,…
Blind deconvolution and demixing is the problem of reconstructing convolved signals and kernels from the sum of their convolutions. This problem arises in many applications, such as blind MIMO. This work presents a separable approach to…
We propose a solution to the image deconvolution problem where the convolution kernel or point spread function (PSF) is assumed to be only partially known. Small perturbations generated from the model are exploited to produce a few…
Typical blur from camera shake often deviates from the standard uniform convolutional script, in part because of problematic rotations which create greater blurring away from some unknown center point. Consequently, successful blind…
Bayesian approaches are one of the primary methodologies to tackle an inverse problem in high dimensions. Such an inverse problem arises in hydrology to infer the permeability field given flow data in a porous media. It is common practice…
Future cosmological surveys will provide 3D large scale structure maps with large sky coverage, for which a 3D Spherical Fourier-Bessel (SFB) analysis in spherical coordinates is natural. Wavelets are particularly well-suited to the…
In this paper we present a blind deconvolution scheme based on statistical wavelet estimation. We assume no prior knowledge of the wavelet, and do not select a reflector from the signal. Instead, the wavelet (ultrasound pulse) is…
Blind deconvolution has made significant progress in the past decade. Most successful algorithms are classified either as Variational or Maximum a-Posteriori ($MAP$). In spite of the superior theoretical justification of variational…
In this paper, we introduce a variational Bayesian algorithm (VBA) for image blind deconvolution. Our generic framework incorporates smoothness priors on the unknown blur/image and possible affine constraints (e.g., sum to one) on the blur…
The hierarchical sparsity framework, and in particular the HiHTP algorithm, has been successfully applied to many relevant communication engineering problems recently, particularly when the signal space is hierarchically structured. In this…
