Abstract
Blocking artifacts are reduced by projecting each patch obtained from an input image onto a set of bases vectors to determine multiple representations for each patch. The set of bases vectors are learned from a training image, and the bases vectors include a full basis vector, and one or two subspace bases vectors. An optimal basis vector is determined in the set of bases vectors for each patch according to the projection. A threshold is applied to coefficients of the optimal basis vector to determine a filtered representation for each patch, and a reconstructed patch is generated using the filtered representation. Then, the aggregating the reconstructed patches are aggregated to produce an output image.
