Systems and methods for reducing noise in video streams

摘要

Disclosed are apparatus and methods for denoising a video stream of a camera. A current frame of the video stream and a temporally adjacent frame of the video stream that has been previously spatially and temporally denoised are obtained. The current frame is first spatially denoised, while preserving edges in such current frame to generate a plurality of spatially denoised pixels for the current frame. A particular pixel of the current frame is then both spatially and temporally denoised based on a weighted averaging of the particular pixel's associated spatially denoised pixel from the current frame and a plurality of pixels from the temporally adjacent frame that have already been spatially and temporally denoised.

1. A method of denoising a video stream of a camera, the method comprising:
spatially denoising a current frame of the video stream to generate a plurality of spatially denoised pixels for the current frame; and after the current frame is spatially denoised, temporally denoising a particular pixel of the current frame using a weighted average of a spatially denoised pixel in the plurality of spatially denoised pixels for the current frame and a plurality of pixels from a spatially and temporally denoised frame temporally adjacent to the current frame.
