Embodiments of the present invention provide context-class-based universal denoising of noisy images and other noise-corrupted data sets. Prediction-error statistics for each prediction class, relative to a prefiltered image, are collected to estimate a bias for each prediction class, and prediction-error statistics for each conditioning class, relative to a prefiltered image, are accumulated based on the difference between predicted values and corresponding prefiltered-image symbols. The prediction-error statistics are accumulated using computed prediction-error-statistics vectors, with inversion of a prediction-error vector generated from each prediction prior to accumulation in a prediction-error-statistics vector. Conditional probability distributions are computed for individual contexts, which allow for computing a clean-image-estimated, value for each noisy-image value by minimizing a computed distortion over a range of possible estimated-clean-image symbols.
