Real-time Noise Source Estimation of a Camera System from an Image and Metadata

arXiv:2404.03251v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Autonomous machines must self-maintain proper functionality to ensure the safety of humans and themselves. This pertains particularly to its cameras as predominant sensors to perceive the environment and support actions. A fundamental camera problem addressed in this study is noise. Solutions often focus on denoising images a posteriori, that is, fighting symptoms rather than root causes. However, tackling root causes requires identifying the noise sources, considering the limitations of mobile platforms. This work investigates a …
