Abstract

In this paper we explore the problem of reconstruction of RGB images with additive Gaussian noise. In order to solve this problem we use backward stochastic differential equations. The reconstructed image is characterized by smoothing noisy pixels and at the same time enhancing and sharpening edges. This novel look on the reconstruction is fruitful, gives encouraging results and can be successfully applied to denoising of high ISO images.
