The NTIRE 2026 Challenge on Image Denoising focused on restoring images degraded by high levels of additive white Gaussian noise. The competition evaluated advanced neural network architectures, prioritizing peak quantitative performance measured by Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR). The challenge saw 116 teams register, with 20 finalists contributing to a report that benchmarks the latest innovations in unconstrained image restoration. AI
