Deep Learning Denoising

Remove noise from TIFF image stacks using self-supervised deep learning methods that require no clean reference images.

Deep learning denoising uses neural networks trained directly on your noisy images — no clean training data required. This is possible through self-supervised learning techniques.

Available Methods

Noise2Void (N2V)

A fast single-stage method ideal for random, uncorrelated noise like Gaussian or Poisson noise commonly found in microscopy images. N2V works by training a network to predict masked pixels from their surroundings.

autoStructN2V

A two-stage approach for structured noise patterns like scan lines, periodic artifacts from tomography, or camera-specific patterns. Stage 1 trains standard N2V, then analyzes residuals to detect noise patterns. Stage 2 uses these patterns to better preserve real structures while removing noise.

Workflow

  1. Select Method & Data: Choose your denoising method and upload images

  2. Configure: Adjust training parameters or use presets

  3. Training: Train the model (images are denoised during training)

  4. Inference (Optional): Apply the model to additional images
