Questions tagged [denoising]

Denoising is a collection of techniques to remove unwanted noise from a signal. Typically this is done by filtering, but a variety of other techniques is available. Often combinations are used in sequence to optimize the denoising.

PSNR decreases while denoising

I currently am trying to portray PSNR's ability to measure noise in an image. The PSNR is said to be high (around 40 dB) if there is a low amount of noise in the 2D signal. In my experiment I have ...
