摘要

Abstract

One of the main drawbacks of Digital Holography (DH) is the coherent nature of the light source

which severely corrupts the quality of holographic reconstructions. Although numerous techniques to reduce noise in DH have provided good results

holographic noise suppression remains a challenging task. We propose a novel framework that combines the concepts of encoding multiple uncorrelated digital holograms

block grouping and collaborative filtering to achieve quasi noise-free DH reconstructions. The optimized joint action of these different image-denoising methods permits the removal of up to 98% of the noise while preserving the image contrast. The resulting quality of the hologram reconstructions is comparable to the quality achievable with non-coherent techniques and far beyond the current state of art in DH. Experimental validation is provided for both single-wavelength and multi-wavelength DH

and a comparison with the most used holographic denoising methods is performed.
