Abstract: Most existing filters for video denoising are spatio-temporal filters which operate on data over 3 dimensions. This paper presents a purely linear temporal filter with multihypothesis motion compensation (MC). Compared to the spatio-temporal filters, the proposed one needs much fewer inputs and much simpler operation. Experimental results show that just by involving 3 pixels, the proposed filter can achieve very good noise suppression performance. Moreover, as a purely temporal filter, it can well preserve spatial details and achieve satisfactory visual quality.
