最近提出了非局部欧几里得中值 (NLEM),并且在去除重噪声方面显示出比非局部均值 (NLM) 更有效。 在这封信中,我们发现NLEM中两个不同度量之间的不一致会影响其健壮性,因此开发了一种改进版本(INLEM)来弥补这种不一致。 此外,我们为 NLEM 和 INLEM 中使用的迭代算法提供了简洁的收敛证明。 最后,我们对合成和自然图像的实验表明,INLEM 取得了令人鼓舞的结果。

Analysis of Non-Local Euclidean
Medians and Its Improvement
Zhonggui Sun and Songcan Chen
Abstract—Non-Local Euclidean Medians (NLEM) has recently
been proposed and show s more effective than Non-Local Means
(NLM) in removing heavy noise. In this letter, we find the inconsis-
tency be t we en the two dissimilarity measu res in NLEM can affect
its robustness, thus develop an improved version (INLEM) to com-
pensate such an inconsistency. Further, we provide a concise con-
vergence proof for the iterative algorithm used in both NLEM and
INLEM. Finally, our experiments on synthetic and natural images
show that INLEM achieves encouraging results.

I. INTRODUCTION
N
ON-LOCAL denoising method s have d rawn a lot of
attention in the imag
e processing community and chiefly
originate from the non-local means (NLM) proposed by Buades
et al. [1]. Unlike local counterparts which typically operate
within a local ne
ighborhood, NLM computes weighted means
in a non-local way by employing the between-patch dissim-
ilarity (m easure). Despite simple in idea, NLM outperforms
some popular fi
lters [4] and then motivates many successors
proposed. Such a patch-based and non-local viewpoint has
become a core of most state-of-the-art fi lters including BM3D
[2], K-SVD
[3] et al.,asreviewedin[4].
Along the line, recently, Chaudhury et al. proposed the
Non-local Euclidean medians (NLEM) to improve robust
performan
ce of NLM to heavy ( large noise level) noise b y re-
placing the Euclidean mean with Euclidean median [5]. Unlike
those weighted mean followers of NLM, NLEM is its weighted
median
variant and inherits robustness of the median filters to
outlier or heavy noise [6]. However, we find that in its im ple-
mentation, NLEM adopts two different kinds of b etween -patch
measu
res: one is the Euclidean norm in the definition of the
Euclidean median and the other is its squares in the definitio n of
weight com putation. In fact, measures are often task-dependent
[7]
and yield different robustness. Thus in NLEM, such a joint
use of inconsistent measures likely discounts its robustness in

denoising (as confirmed in ou r experiments). The observation
motivates us to propose an improved NLEM (INLEM) to elim-
inate such an inconsistency. Overall, our main contributions
can be summarized as follows:
1) We point ou t and analyze t he inconsisten cy of the tw o kinds
of between-patch measures used in NLEM.
2) We develop a new non-lo cal median filter (INLEM) with
consistent measures and obtain enco uragin g denoising
effect.
3) For the iterative algorith m of both NLEM and I NLEM, we
give a q uite concise convergence pro of.
