Spatiotemporal wavelet maximum a posteriori estimation for video denoising

We examine one way to extend recently proposed waveletbased maximum a posteriori estimation rules for image denoising to video. The proposed approach takes into account both spatial and temporal dependencies between wavelet coefficients, and is general enough to incorporate different spherically contoured prior distributions on noiseless coefficients, as well as different spatiotemporal coefficient neighborhoods. Presented extensions of the algorithm have reasonable complexity and are suited to vectorized, convolutionbased implementations.
