Abstract
Described herein are techniques related to noise reduction for image sequences or videos. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope and meaning of the claims. A noise reduction tool includes a motion estimator configured to estimated motion in the video, a noise spectrum estimator configured to estimate noise in the video, a shot detector configured to trigger the noise estimation process, a noise spectrum validator configured to validate the estimated noise spectrum, and a noise reducer to reduce noise in the video using the estimated noise spectrum.
