We propose a simple, interpretable framework for solving a wide range of image reconstruction problems such as denoising and deconvolution. Given a corrupted input image, the model synthesizes a spatially varying linear filter which, when…

These last few years, image decomposition algorithms have been proposed to split an image into two parts: the structures and the textures. These algorithms are not adapted to the case of noisy images because the textures are corrupted by…
