We present here an effective scheme for image denoising based on total variation regularization. The proposed scheme allows to efficiently remove Poisson noise as well as Gaussian noise simultaneously with the help of a new kind of data fidelity term, suitable for the mixed Poisson-Gaussian noise model. The results show that the algorithm corresponding to our new scheme outperforms the existing methods for mixed Poisson-Gaussian noise removal.
In this paper, we present an effective algorithm for solving the Poisson-Gaussian total variation model. The existence and uniqueness of solution for the mixed Poisson-Gaussian model are proved. Due to the strict convexity of the model, the split-Bregman method is employed to solve the minimization problem. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method for mixed Poisson-Gaussion noise removal. Comparison with other existing and well-known methods is provided as well.
Introduction: A common problem in image restoration is image denoising. Among many noise models, the mixed Poisson-Gaussian model has recently aroused considerable interest. Purpose: Development of a model for denoising images corrupted by mixed Poisson-Gaussian noise, along with an algorithm for solving the resulting minimization problem. Results: We proposed a new total variation model for restoring an image with mixed Poisson-Gaussian noise, based on second-order total generalized variation. In order to solve this problem, an efficient alternating minimization algorithm is used. To illustrate its comparison with related methods, experimental results are presented, demonstrating the high efficiency of the proposed approach. Practical relevance: The proposed model allows you to remove mixed Poisson-Gaussian noise in digital images, preserving the edges. The presented numerical results demonstrate the competitive features of the proposed model.
In this paper, a hybrid regularizers model for Poissonian image restoration is introduced. We study existence and uniqueness of minimizer for this model. To solve the resulting minimization problem, we employ the alternating minimization method with rigorous convergence guarantee. Numerical results demonstrate the efficiency and stability of the proposed method for suppressing Poisson noise.
