Abstract

In view of the data dependence that is the major drawback of the supervised deep neural network(DNN) -based denoising models, this paper proposed an unsupervised deep image generation(UDIG) denoising model. Firstly, it utilized a noise level estimation(NLE) algorithm to measure the noise level of a given noisy image, the estimated noise level and the noisy image fed into the state-of-the-art denoising model(i. e., fast and flexible denoising convolutional neural network, FFDNet) to obtain a preliminary denoised image as the input to the UDIG model. Secondly, it chose the encoder-decoder architecture as backbone network, while using the sum of the mean square error among the output image of UDIG model(i. e. generated image), and the preliminary denoised image, and the given noisy image to define mixed loss function. Then, the regular stochastic gradient descent(SGD) algorithm optimized the loss function, adjusted the hyper-parameters of the UDIG model to generating a series of generated images. Finally, when the standard deviation of the residual image between the noisy image and generated image approximates the noise level measured by the NLE algorithm, the network iterative process was terminated adaptively, ensuring the image quality of the generated image(treated as the denoised image). Extensive experiments show that, the proposed UDIG denoising model has a better performance than other state-of-the-art counterparts with regard to denoising effect.
