Blind Universal Bayesian Image Denoising With Gaussian Noise Level Learning

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou

Blind and universal image denoising consists of using a unique model that denoises images with any level of noise. It is especially practical as noise levels do not need to be known when the model is developed or at test time. We propose a theoretically-gr ...

Toward a Dynamic Threshold for Quality-Score Distortion in Reference-Based Alignment

Marco Mattavelli, Claudio Paolo Alberti, Ana Angelica Hernandez Lopez

The intrinsic high entropy metadata, known as quality scores, are largely the cause of the substantial size of sequence data files. Yet, there is no consensus on a viable reduction of the resolution of the quality score scale, arguably because of collatera ...
