Embodiment Construction

[0047]The invention proposes an image noise intensity estimation method of Gaussian noise, and the difference value in the difference value histogram contains both noise and edge texture. Is it possible to process the difference distribution to make it closer to the difference distribution of the noise? Regardless of the structure of the image, the general image signal is regular (sparse feature). The difference distribution of image noise is different from that of edge texture. The difference distribution of noise is close to Gaussian distribution, while the difference distribution of edge texture is generally irregular. We can use the difference between noise and edge texture difference distribution to process the difference distribution to make it closer to the noise distribution. Then calculate the variance of the noise.

[0048] The following is based on Figure 1 to Figure 5 The specific embodiment of the present invention is further described:

Abstract

The invention discloses an image noise intensity estimation method for Gaussian noise. The image noise intensity estimation method comprises the steps of: subjecting an image to block processing to obtain a plurality of blocked images; filtering the blocked images; acquiring difference values between the original blocked images and the corresponding filtered blocked images, and recording the difference values in the form of a difference value histogram; cutting down a pixel number with large difference in the difference value histogram; calculating a mean square value of a positive number part and a mean square value of a negative number part of the difference values in the difference value histogram, extracting the minimum in the mean square value of the positive number part and the minimum in the mean square value of the negative number part, and regarding the minimums as noise intensity of the blocked images; and calculating a noise intensity value of each blocked image, and extracting the minimum from the noise intensity values of the blocked images to serve as noise intensity of the whole image. The image noise intensity estimation method for Gaussian noise can reduce the influence of the edge texture of the image, so as to further estimate the true noise.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of digital image processing, in particular to an image noise intensity estimation method of Gaussian noise. Background technique [0002] Image denoising has a wide range of applications, and classic denoising algorithms such as BM3D and Non Local Means have very good denoising effects. However, general denoising algorithms need to know the noise level to denoise. Like BM3D, the denoising process of the Non local Means algorithm needs to know the variance of the noise and use the noise variance as a parameter in the calculation process. [0003] When denoising an image, we often need to estimate the noise level of the image, and we use the variance of the noise to describe the intensity of the noise. An inaccurate noise estimate can adversely affect the denoising process. If the estimate is too high, the denoising process will remove some textures that should not be removed. If the estimate is too low, the denoisin...
