The degraded image during the process of image analysis needs more number of iterations to restore it. These iterations take long waiting time and slow scanning, resulting in inefficient image restoration. A few numbers of measurements are enough to recuperate an image with good condition. Due to tree sparsity, a 2D wavelet tree reduces the number of coefficients and iterations to restore the degraded image. All the wavelet coefficients are extracted with overlaps as low and high sub-band space and ordered them such that they are decomposed in the tree ordering structured path. Some articles have addressed the problems with tree sparsity and total variation (TV), but few authors endorsed the benefits of tree sparsity. In this paper, a spatial variation regularization algorithm based on tree order is implemented to change the window size and variation estimators to reduce the loss of image information and to solve the problem of image smoothing operation. The acceptance rate of the tree-structured path relies on local variation estimators to regularize the performance parameters and update them to restore the image. For this, the Localized Total Variation (LTV) method is proposed and implemented on a 2D wavelet tree ordering structured path based on the proposed image smooth adjustment scheme. In the end, a reliable reordering algorithm proposed to reorder the set of pixels and to increase the reliability of the restored image. Simulation results clearly show that the proposed method improved the performance compared to existing methods of image restoration.

Total Variation Model

Introduction: Many methods have been proposed to handle the image restoration problem with Poisson noise. A popular approach to Poissonian image reconstruction is the one based on Total Variation. This method can provide significantly sharp edges and visually fine images, but it results in piecewise-constant regions in the resulting images. Purpose: Developing an adaptive total variation-based model for the reconstruction of images contaminated by Poisson noise, and an algorithm for solving the optimization problem. Results: We proposed an effective way to restore images degraded by Poisson noise. Using the Bayesian framework, we proposed an adaptive model based on a combination of first-order total variation and fractional order total variation. The first-order total variation model is efficient for suppressing the noise and preserving the keen edges simultaneously. However, the first-order total variation method usually causes artifact problems in the obtained results. To avoid this drawback, we can use high-order total variation models, one of which is the fractional-order total variation-based model for image restoration. In the fractional-order total variation model, the derivatives have an order greater than or equal to one. It leads to the convenience of computation with a compact discrete form. However, methods based on the fractional-order total variation may cause image blurring. Thus, the proposed model incorporates the advantages of two total variation regularization models, having a significant effect on the edge-preserving image restoration. In order to solve the considered optimization problem, the Split Bregman method is used. Experimental results are provided, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed method.  Practical relevance: The proposed method allows you to restore Poissonian images preserving their edges. The presented numerical simulation demonstrates the competitive performance of the model proposed for image reconstruction. Discussion: From the experimental results, we can see that the proposed algorithm is effective in suppressing noise and preserving the image edges. However, the weighted parameters in the proposed model were not automatically selected at each iteration of the proposed algorithm. This requires additional research.
