Abstract
A computer implemented method of determining a latent image from an observed image is disclosed. The method comprises implementing a plurality of image processing operations within a single optimization framework, wherein the single optimization framework comprises solving a linear minimization expression. The method further comprises mapping the linear minimization expression onto at least one non-linear solver. Further, the method comprises using the non-linear solver, iteratively solving the linear minimization expression in order to extract the latent image from the observed image, wherein the linear minimization expression comprises: a data term, and a regularization term, and wherein the regularization term comprises a plurality of non-linear image priors.
