All techniques for denoising involve a notion of a true (noise-free) image, and a hypothesis space. The hypothesis space may reconstruct the image directly as a grayscale valued function, or indirectly by its Fourier or wavelet spectrum.…
Image restoration is the task of recovering a clean image from a degraded version. In most cases, the degradation is spatially varying, and it requires the restoration network to both localize and restore the affected regions. In this…
