Multiscale denoising of videos

Abstract:

Implementations disclosed herein include an image capture device, a system, and a method for performing multiscale denoising of a video. An image processor of the image capture device obtains a video frame. The video frame may be in any format and may include noise artifacts. The image processor decomposes the video frame into one or more sub-frames. In some implementations, the image processor denoises each of the one or more sub-frames. The image processor decomposes one or more video frames in a temporal buffer into one or more temporal sub-frames. The image processor denoises each of the temporal sub-frames. The image processor reconstructs the one or more denoised sub-frames and the one or more temporal sub-frames to produce a denoised video frame. A memory of the image capture device may be configured to store the denoised video frame.
