Synopsis

Keywords: Data Processing, Data ProcessingIn noise reduction, the lower the amount of noise, the lower the image degradation associated with the noise reduction. Using this property, we propose a new denoising scheme that can improve denoising performance using trained CNN. Noise suppressed image by low-pass filter is inputted to denoising CNN and then output image is enhanced by high-pass filter. Experimental results show that noise suppression of the input image improves both image structure preservation and noise processing performance. The proposed method was applied to a parallel blind image denoising method. As a results, further improvement in performance was shown.
