In this paper, we jointly combine image classification and image denoising, aiming to enhance human perception of noisy images captured by edge devices, like low-light security cameras. In such settings, it is important to retain the…

We propose a bilevel optimization approach for the estimation of parameters in nonlocal image denoising models. The parameters we consider are both the fidelity weight and weights within the kernel of the nonlocal operator. In both cases we…

Recent studies on learning-based image denoising have achieved promising performance on various noise reduction tasks. Most of these deep denoisers are trained either under the supervision of clean references, or unsupervised on synthetic…

Image denoising is an essential part of many image processing and computer vision tasks due to inevitable noise corruption during image acquisition. Traditionally, many researchers have investigated image priors for the denoising, within…

Removal of noise from an image is an extensively studied problem in image processing. Indeed, the recent advent of sophisticated and highly effective denoising algorithms lead some to believe that existing methods are touching the ceiling…

Learning-based denoising algorithms achieve state-of-the-art performance across various denoising tasks. However, training such models relies on access to large training datasets consisting of clean and noisy image pairs. On the other hand,…

We provide a framework for the numerical approximation of distributed optimal control problems, based on least-squares finite element methods. Our proposed method simultaneously solves the state and adjoint equations and is $\inf$--$\sup$…

We introduce a direct numerical treatment of nonlinear higher-index differential-algebraic equations by means of overdetermined polynomial least-squares collocation. The procedure is not much more computationally expensive than standard…

Optical neuroimaging is a vital tool for understanding the brain structure and the connection between regions and nuclei. However, the image noise introduced in the sample preparation and the imaging system hinders the extraction of the…

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have shown very promising results for various image restoration (IR) tasks. However, the design of network architectures remains a major challenging for achieving further improvements. While most existing…

Plug-and-Play Priors (PnP) and Regularisation by Denoising (RED) have established that image denoisers can effectively replace traditional regularisers in linear inverse problem solvers for tasks like super-resolution, demosaicing, and…

The goal of a denoising algorithm is to reconstruct a signal from its noise-corrupted observations. Perfect reconstruction is seldom possible and performance is measured under a given fidelity criterion. In a recent work, the authors…

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…

We address the problem of minimizing a class of energy functions consisting of data and smoothness terms that commonly occur in machine learning, computer vision, and pattern recognition. While discrete optimization methods are able to give…

Non-convex optimization is ubiquitous in modern machine learning. Researchers devise non-convex objective functions and optimize them using off-the-shelf optimizers such as stochastic gradient descent and its variants, which leverage the…

Over the years, progressive improvements in denoising performance have been achieved by several image denoising algorithms that have been proposed. Despite this, many of these state-of-the-art algorithms tend to smooth out the denoised…

Stellarator optimization is a multi-objective, non-convex problem characterized by a complex objective landscape containing many local minima. The solution resulting from a single optimization is highly sensitive to factors such as the…

In this paper, we propose a novel image denoising algorithm exploiting features from both spatial as well as transformed domain. We implement intensity-invariance based improved grouping for collaborative support-agnostic sparse…

Image classification and denoising suffer from complementary issues of lack of robustness or partially ignoring conditioning information. We argue that they can be alleviated by unifying both tasks through a model of the joint probability…

In this paper we introduce a novel block-based regression strategy for image denoising based on edge-aware Steered-Mixture-of-Experts (SMoE) models. SMoEs provide very sparse image representations, able to model sharp edges as well as…
