Video Denoising using Temporal Coherency of Video Frames and Sparse Representation

Abstract

Sparse representation based on dictionary learning has been widely used in many applications over the past decade. In this article, a new method is proposed for removing noise from video images using sparse representation and a trained dictionary. To enhance the noise removal capability, the proposed method is combined with a block matching algorithm to take the advantage of the temporal dependency of video images and increase the quality of the output images. The simulations performed on different test data show the appropriate response of the proposed algorithm in terms of video image output quality.
