Abstract

The problem of denoising of video signals corrupted by additive Gaussian noise is considered in this paper. A novel 3D DCT-based video-denoising algorithm is proposed. Video data are locally filtered in sliding/running 3D windows (arrays) consisting of highly correlated spatial layers taken from consecutive frames of video. Their selection is done by the use of a block matching or similar techniques. Denoising in local windows is performed by a hard thresholding of 3D DCT coefficients of each 3D array. Final estimates of reconstructed pixels are obtained by a weighted average of the local estimates from all overlapping windows. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm provides a competitive performance with state-of-the-art video denoising methods both in terms of PSNR and visual quality.
