Low-Cost Denoising and Deblurring Using a Novel Nonlinear Diffusion Technique
Daniele Funaro, Lorella Fatone · Preprints.org · 2023
An algorithm for the treatment of images affected by both blurring and salt&pepper noise is proposed with a cost only proportional to the number of pixels. The methodology uses a discretization scheme for the Laplace operator multiplied by a suitable nonlinear term depending on the gradient. Even if this approach resembles a diffusion type algorithm, only one step of the procedure is applied, leading to significant time savings. The procedure is successfully tested on some standard black&white natural images.
