Targeted Iterative Filtering

arXiv:2608.22299v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The assessment of image denoising results depends on the respective application area, i.e. image compression, still-image acquisition, and medical images require entirely different behavior of the applied denoising method. In this paper we propose a novel, nonlinear diffusion scheme that is derived from a linear diffusion process in a value space determined by the application. We show that application-driven linear diffusion in the transformed space compares favorably with existing nonlinear diffusion techniques.
