All,
We are trying to use Intel Media SDK's denoiser for denoising some yuvs and we have some questions in this regard.
1. From the deoiser output, we see that Intel Media SDK's denoiser does not seem to denoise chroma data. We see that chroma data before and after denoising is exactly matching. Is it that Intel Media SDK's denoiser does not denoise the chroma data? With regards to chroma, is it okay to create monochrome surfaces for each component and then call denoise for each surface?
2. What is the speed at which software and hardware denoiser can be run (say on i7 4770 machine)? Does the speed change depending on content properties?
3. We see that hardware and software denoisers don't give identical results. Is it expected?
4. We see that VPP call for denoising gives output from the first frame? Is it that first frame uses spatial denoising and second frame on spatial + temporal denoising is used?
Regards,
Ranjit
