A noise model is iteratively trained to simulate introduction of noise by a capture device, by use of a denoiser and a training data set of pairs of noisy signals. First and second noisy signals of each pair are independently sampled by the capture device from source information corresponding to the pair. Each iteration of training obtains first and second denoised signals from respective noisy signals, then optimizes at least one loss function which sums first and second terms to train both the noise model and the denoiser, where the first term is based on the first denoised signal and the second noisy signal, and the second term is based on the second denoised signal and the first noisy signal. By using noisy samples, the complexities of obtaining 'clean' signals are avoided. By using “cross-sample” loss functions, convergence on undesired training results is avoided without complex regularization.
