• Authors: Zeshan Fayyaz, Daniel Platnick, Hannan Fayyaz, Nariman Farsad
• Abstract summary: Non-uniform photoelectric response of infrared imaging systems results in fixed-pattern stripe noise being superimposed on infrared images. Existing image destriping methods struggle to concurrently remove all stripe noise artifacts, preserve image details and structures, and balance real-time performance. We propose a novel algorithm for destriping degraded images, which takes advantage of neighbouring column signal correlation to remove independent column stripe noise.

• Abstract: The non-uniform photoelectric response of infrared imaging systems results in fixed-pattern stripe noise being superimposed on infrared images, which severely reduces image quality. As the applications of degraded infrared images are limited, it is crucial to effectively preserve original details. Existing image destriping methods struggle to concurrently remove all stripe noise artifacts, preserve image details and structures, and balance real-time performance. In this paper we propose a novel algorithm for destriping degraded images, which takes advantage of neighbouring column signal correlation to remove independent column stripe noise. This is achieved through an iterative deep unfolding algorithm where the estimated noise of one network iteration is used as input to the next iteration. This progression substantially reduces the search space of possible function approximations, allowing for efficient training on larger datasets. The proposed method allows for a more precise estimation of stripe noise to preserve scene details more accurately. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms existing destriping methods on artificially corrupted images on both quantitative and qualitative assessments.

  Low-Light Image Enhancement (LLIE) techniques have made notable advancements in preserving image details and enhancing contrast.

  Deep neural networks have revolutionized image denoising in achieving significant accuracy improvements. To alleviate the requirement to learn image priors externally, single-image methods perform denoising solely based on the analysis of the input noisy image. This work investigates the effectiveness of linear combinations of patches for denoising under this constraint.
