Image Restoration via Collaborative Filtering and Deep Learning

In this paper, we investigate the challenge of image restoration from severely incomplete data, encompassing compressive sensing image restoration and image inpainting. We propose a versatile implementation framework of plug-and-play ADMM image reconstruction, leveraging readily several available denoisers including model-based nonlocal denoisers and deep learning-based denoisers. We conduct a comprehensive comparative analysis against state-of-the-art methods, showcasing superior performance in both qualitative and quantitative aspects, including image quality and implementation complexity.
