limri.denoising.
nlm_denoising
(arr, n_coils=0)[source]ΒΆ Non-local means for denoising 3D and 4D images, using blockwise averaging approach.
- Parameters
arr : 3D or 4D ndarray
The array to be denoised
n_coils : int, default 0
Number of coils of the receiver array. Use N = 1 in case of a SENSE reconstruction (Philips scanners) or the number of coils for a GRAPPA reconstruction (Siemens and GE). Use 0 to disable the correction factor, as for example if the noise is Gaussian distributed.
- Returns
denoised_arr : ndarray
the denoised
arr
which has the same shape asarr
.
