image despeckling

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images can be extensively informative owing to their resolution and availability. However, the removal of speckle-noise from these requires several pre-processing steps. In recent years, deep learning-based techniques have brought significant improvement in the domain of denoising and image restoration. However, further research has been hampered by the lack of availability of data suitable for training deep neural network-based systems. With this paper, we propose a standard synthetic data set for the training of speckle reduction algorithms.
