# wrapper for BM3D denoising - from Tampere with love Wrapper for BM3D for stationary correlated noise (including white noise) for color, grayscale and multichannel images, as well as deblurring. This implementation is based on Y. Mäkinen, L. Azzari, A. Foi, "Collaborative Filtering of Correlated Noise: Exact Transform-Domain Variance for Improved Shrinkage and Patch Matching", IEEE Trans. Image Process., vol. 29, pp. 8339-8354, 2020. DOI: 10.1109/TIP.2020.3014721 The Python package contains the BM3D binaries compiled for: - Windows (Win10, MinGW-32) - Linux (Debian 10, 64-bit) - Mac OSX (El Capitan, 64-bit) The Matlab package contains the BM3D binaries compiled for: - Windows (R2018b) - Linux (R2017b) - Mac OSX (R2018a) The binaries are available for non-commercial use only.
