Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) [1] are often used for image reconstruction, but perform better reconstructing the low frequencies of the image than the high frequencies. This is especially the case when using noisy images. In this paper, we test using a Learning Synthesis Deep Neural Network (LS-DNN) [2] in combination with BM3D [3], an off the shelf de-noising tool, to generate images, attempting to decouple the de-noising and de-blurring steps to reconstruct noisy, blurry images. Overall, the LS-DNN performed similarly to the DNN trained only with respect to the ground truth images, and decoupling the de-noising and de-blurring steps underperformed compared to the results of images de-blurred and de-noised simultaneously with a DNN.
