Abstract
Removing noise from images is a challenging and fundamental problem in the field of computer vision. Images captured by modern cameras are inevitably degraded by noise which limits the accuracy of any quantitative measurements on those images. In this project, we propose a novel image reconstruction framework which can be used for tasks such as image denoising, deblurring or inpainting. The model proposed in this project is based on Vision Transformer (ViT) that takes 2D images as input and outputs embeddings which can be used for reconstructing denoised images. We incorporate four additional optimization techniques in the framework to improve the model reconstruction capability, namely Locality Sensitive Attention (LSA), Shifted Patch Tokenization (SPT), Rotary Position Embeddings (RoPE) and adversarial loss function inspired from Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). LSA, SPT and RoPE enable the transformer to learn from the dataset more efficiently, while the adversarial loss function enhances the resolution of the reconstructed images. Based on our experiments, the proposed architecture outperforms the benchmark U-Net model by more than 3.5\% structural similarity (SSIM) for the reconstruction tasks of image denoising and inpainting. The proposed enhancements further show an improvement of \textasciitilde5\% SSIM over the benchmark for both tasks.

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
