Image restoration using the Q-Ising spin glass

Abstract

We investigate static and dynamic properties of gray-scale image restoration (GSIR) by making use of the Q-Ising spin glass model, whose ladder symmetry allows to take in account the distance between two spins. We thus give an explicit expression of the Hamming distance between the original and restored images as a function of the hyper-parameters in the mean field limit. Finally, numerical simulations for real-world pictures are carried out to prove the efficiency of our model.
