However, the existing local regularized models and some patch manifold based non-local models are often not effective in restoring the features and patterns in the large missing regions. In this paper, we will apply a strategy of inpainting from outside to inside and propose a re-weighted matching algorithm by closest patch (RWCP), contributing to further enhancing the features in the missing large regions. Additionally, we propose another re-weighted matching algorithm by distance-based weighted average (RWWA), leading to a result with higher PSNR value in some cases. Numerical simulations will demonstrate that for large region inpainting, the proposed method is more applicable than most canonical methods. Moreover, combined with image denoising methods, the proposed model is also applicable for noisy image restoration with large missing regions.","PeriodicalId":50274,"journal":{"name":"Inverse Problems and Imaging","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78176441","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, these methods are mainly limited to Gaussian noise removal. In this paper, the Poisson noise removal problem is considered. Unlike Gaussian noise which has an identical and independent distribution, Poisson noise is signal dependent, which makes the problem more challenging. By incorporating the prior that a group of similar patches should possess a low-rank structure, and applying the maximum a posterior (MAP) estimation, the Poisson noise removal problem is formulated as an optimization one. Then, an alternating minimization algorithm is developed to find the minimizer of the objective function efficiently. Convergence of the minimizing sequence will be established, and the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm will be demonstrated by numerical experiments.","PeriodicalId":50274,"journal":{"name":"Inverse Problems and Imaging","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91047154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
