Tree-serial parametric dynamic programming with flexible prior model for image denoising

Abstract

We consider here image denoising procedures, based on computationally effective tree-serial parametric dynamic programming procedures, different representations of an image lattice by the set of acyclic graphs and non-convex regularization of a new type which allows to flexibly set a priori preferences. Experimental results in image denoising, as well as comparison with related methods, are provided. A new extended version of multi quadratic dynamic programming procedures for image denoising, proposed here, shows an improved accuracy for images of a different type.
