Abstract:
Conventional image denoising algorithms attempt to remove noise on the basis of spectral separation between signal and noise. However, in practice, the spectra of signal and noise usually overlap. As a result, conventional denoising algorithms often suppress noises at the cost of losing details in fine texture and causing blurring in output images. This paper formulates the image denoising problem by adopting a new model of sparse and low-rank matrix decomposition. Based on this model, the alternating direction method (ADM) is utilized to obtain the restored image. Our experiment demonstrates that the ADM suppresses salt-and-pepper noise more efficiently and better preserves detail information in the input image, as compared to the commonly used median filtering method.
