Abstract
A sensor acquires an input image X of a scene. The image includes noise with a variance σ. A deep Gaussian conditional random field (GCRF) network is applied to the input image to produce an output image Y, where the output image is denoised, and wherein the deep GCRF includes a prior generation (PgNet) network followed by an inference network (InfNet), wherein the PgNet produces patch covariance priors Σfor patches centered on every pixel (i,j) in the input image, and wherein the InfNet is applied to the patch covariance priors and the input image to solve the GCRF.
