A new research paper from Saptarshi Mandal highlights the distinct challenges in texture denoising compared to general image denoising. The study reveals that current state-of-the-art denoisers struggle with preserving fine textural details, often leading to over-smoothing. While fine-tuning these models on texture-specific datasets can improve performance, it results in a catastrophic forgetting of the original dataset's capabilities. The paper argues for the development of specialized, texture-aware denoisers, emphasizing their importance for accurate texture reconstruction and synthesis, which in turn impacts downstream applications like generative modeling.
