We address the problem of signal denoising via transform-domain shrinkage based on a novel $\textit{risk}$ criterion called the minimum probability of error (MPE), which measures the probability that the estimated parameter lies outside an…

Machine learning (ML) methods are extraordinarily successful at denoising photographic images. The application of such denoising methods to scientific images is, however, often complicated by the difficulty in experimentally obtaining a…

We propose a randomized version of the non-local means (NLM) algorithm for large-scale image filtering. The new algorithm, called Monte Carlo non-local means (MCNLM), speeds up the classical NLM by computing a small subset of image patch…

Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging allows for the imaging of objects around a corner, which enables potential applications in various fields such as autonomous driving, robotic vision, medical imaging, security monitoring, etc. However, the…

Linear inverse problems are very common in signal and image processing. Many algorithms that aim at solving such problems include unknown parameters that need tuning. In this work we focus on optimally selecting such parameters in iterative…

Inspired by group-based sparse coding, recently proposed group sparsity residual (GSR) scheme has demonstrated superior performance in image processing. However, one challenge in GSR is to estimate the residual by using a proper reference…

Group sparse representation has shown promising results in image debulrring and image inpainting in GSR [3] , the main reason that lead to the success is by exploiting Sparsity and Nonlocal self-similarity (NSS) between patches on natural…

Non-local self similarity (NSS) is a powerful prior of natural images for image denoising. Most of existing denoising methods employ similar patches, which is a patch-level NSS prior. In this paper, we take one step forward by introducing a…

There are two main streams in up-to-date image denoising algorithms: non-local self similarity (NSS) prior based methods and convolutional neural network (CNN) based methods. The NSS based methods are favorable on images with regular and…

We introduce a fast iterative non-local shrinkage algorithm to recover MRI data from undersampled Fourier measurements. This approach is enabled by the reformulation of current non-local schemes as an alternating algorithm to minimize a…

We address the problem of image denoising in additive white noise without placing restrictive assumptions on its statistical distribution. In the recent literature, specific noise distributions have been considered and correspondingly,…

Gaussian noise removal is an interesting area in digital image processing not only to improve the visual quality, but for its impact on other post-processing algorithms like image registration or segmentation. Many presented…

With the widespread application of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), the traditional model based denoising algorithms are now outperformed. However, CNNs face two problems. First, they are computationally demanding, which makes their…

A problem of image denoising when images are corrupted by a non-stationary noise is considered in this paper. Since in practice no a priori information on noise is available, noise statistics should be pre-estimated for image denoising. In…

A method of determining the optimum number of levels of decomposition in soft-thresholding wavelet denoising using Stationary Wavelet Transform is presented here. The method calculates the risk at each level of decomposition using Steins…

Nonlocal image representation has been successfully used in many image-related inverse problems including denoising, deblurring and deblocking. However, a majority of reconstruction methods only exploit the nonlocal self-similarity (NSS)…

In this article, we present a denoising algorithm to improve the interpretation and quality of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) images. Given the high level of self-similarity of STM images, we propose a denoising algorithm by…

The wavelet shrinkage denoising approach is able to maintain local regularity of a signal while suppressing noise. However, the conventional wavelet shrinkage based methods are not time-scale adaptive to track the local time-scale…

Conventional algorithms for sparse signal recovery and sparse representation rely on $l_1$-norm regularized variational methods. However, when applied to the reconstruction of $\textit{sparse images}$, i.e., images where only a few pixels…

Stein's unbiased risk estimator (SURE) has been shown to be an effective metric for determining optimal parameters for many applications. The topic of this article is focused on the use of SURE for determining parameters for blind…
