Abstract
In this work, we consider the adaptive Wiener filtering of noisy images and image sequences. We begin by using an adaptive weighted averaging (AWA) approach to estimate the second-order statistics required by the Wiener filter. Experimentally, the resulting Wiener filter is improved by about 1 dB in the sense of peak-to-peak SNR (PSNR). Also, the subjective improvement is significant in that the annoying boundary noise, common with the traditional Wiener filter, has been greatly suppressed. The second, and more substantial, part of this paper extends the AWA concept to the wavelet domain. The proposed AWA wavelet Wiener filter is superior to the traditional wavelet Wiener filter by about 0.5 dB (PSNR). Furthermore, an interesting method to effectively combine the denoising results from both wavelet and spatial domains is shown and discussed. Our experimental results outperform or are comparable to state-of-art methods.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
