Currently, many blind deblurring methods assume blurred images are noise-free and perform unsatisfactorily on the blurry images with noise. Unfortunately, noise is quite common in real scenes. A straightforward solution is to denoise images…
In this study, we propose a simple and effective fine-tuning algorithm called "restore-from-restored", which can greatly enhance the performance of fully pre-trained image denoising networks. Many supervised denoising approaches can produce…

Inverse imaging problems are inherently under-determined, and hence it is important to employ appropriate image priors for regularization. One recent popular prior---the graph Laplacian regularizer---assumes that the target pixel patch is…
