TLDR
A strategy to efficiently denoise multi-images or video by using a complex image processing chain involving accurate registration, video equalization, noise estimation and the use of state-of-the-art denoising methods that can be estimated accurately from the image burst.Abstract:
Taking photographs under low light conditions with a hand-held camera is problematic. A long exposure time can cause motion blur due to the camera shaking and a short exposure time gives a noisy image. We consider the new technical possibility offered by cameras that take image bursts. Each image of the burst is sharp but noisy. In this preliminary investigation, we explore a strategy to efficiently denoise multi-images or video. The proposed algorithm is a complex image processing chain involving accurate registration, video equalization, noise estimation and the use of state-of-the-art denoising methods. Yet, we show that this complex chain may become risk free thanks to a key feature: the noise model can be estimated accurately from the image burst. Preliminary tests will be presented. On the technical side, the method can already be used to estimate a non parametric camera noise model from any image burst.read more

An Optimized Blockwise Nonlocal Means Denoising Filter for 3-D Magnetic Resonance Images
TL;DR: The results show that the optimized NL-means filter outperforms the classical implementation of the NL- means filter, as well as two other classical denoising methods and total variation minimization process in terms of accuracy with low computation time.

TL;DR: This work proposes an end-to-end system that is aware of the camera and image model, enforces natural-image priors, while jointly accounting for common image processing steps like demosaicking, denoising, deconvolution, and so forth, all directly in a given output representation.

Image denoising review: From classical to state-of-the-art approaches
TL;DR: This article focuses on classifying and comparing some of the significant works in the field of denoising and explains why some methods work optimally and others tend to create artefacts and remove fine structural details under general conditions.

Secrets of image denoising cuisine
TL;DR: This work has shown that it is possible to estimate the signal-to-noise ratio of a noise model from a single noisy image, and that this model is relatively easy to obtain.

Fast burst images denoising
TL;DR: A fast denoising method that produces a clean image from a burst of noisy images by introducing a lightweight camera motion representation called homography flow and a mechanism of selecting consistent pixels for temporal fusion to handle scene motion during the capture.

Random sample consensus: a paradigm for model fitting with applications to image analysis and automated cartography
TL;DR: New results are derived on the minimum number of landmarks needed to obtain a solution, and algorithms are presented for computing these minimum-landmark solutions in closed form that provide the basis for an automatic system that can solve the Location Determination Problem under difficult viewing.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide comprehensive background material and explain how to apply the methods and implement the algorithms directly in a unified framework, including geometric principles and how to represent objects algebraically so they can be computed and applied.
Distinctive Image Features from Scale-Invariant Keypoints
TL;DR: The Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (or SIFT) algorithm is a highly robust method to extract and consequently match distinctive invariant features from images that can then be used to reliably match objects in diering images.
