A Zero-Shot Deep Image Prior Framework for Denoising and Deconvolution in Fluorescence Microscopy

arXiv:2606.28431v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Fluorescence microscopy images are degraded by noise and diffraction-induced blur, which compromise structural fidelity and limit quantitative analysis. Supervised deep learning methods achieve impressive restoration performance but require large-scale paired datasets that are difficult to obtain in practice. To address this issue, we propose SDIP, a zero-shot deep image prior (DIP) framework that sequentially performs denoising and deconvolution without external training data. An aSeqDIP-based module first suppresses noise while preserving fin
The increasing sophistication of deep learning techniques allows for zero-shot approaches that reduce the need for labor-intensive data acquisition, aligning with broader trends towards more efficient and autonomous AI systems.
This development significantly lowers the barrier to entry for high-quality image analysis in scientific research, potentially accelerating discoveries in fields reliant on microscopy without the prohibitive cost and time of creating large datasets.
Traditional reliance on extensive paired datasets for AI-powered image restoration in microscopy is reduced, making advanced image processing more accessible and efficient for researchers, especially those in niche areas.
