Unsupervised Hyperspectral Mixed Noise Removal Via Spatial-Spectral Constrained Deep Image Prior
share
Hyperspectral images (HSIs) are unavoidably corrupted by mixed noise which hinders the subsequent applications. Traditional methods exploit the structure of the HSI via optimization-based models for denoising, while their capacity is inferior to the convolutional neural network (CNN)-based methods, which supervisedly learn the noisy-to-denoised mapping from a large amount of data. However, as the clean-noisy pairs of hyperspectral data are always unavailable in many applications, it is eager to build an unsupervised HSI denoising method with high model capability. To remove the mixed noise in HSIs, we suggest the spatial-spectral constrained deep image prior (S2DIP), which simultaneously capitalize the high model representation ability brought by the CNN in an unsupervised manner and does not need any extra training data. Specifically, we employ the separable 3D convolution blocks to faithfully encode the HSI in the framework of DIP, and a spatial-spectral total variation (SSTV) term is tailored to explore the spatial-spectral smoothness of HSIs. Moreover, our method favorably addresses the semi-convergence behavior of prevailing unsupervised methods, e.g., DIP 2D, and DIP 3D. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art optimization-based HSI denoising methods in terms of effectiveness and robustness.
