GREYCstoration is an image regularization algorithm which processes an image by locally removing small variations of pixel intensities while preserving significant global image features, such as sharp edges and corners.

The most direct application of image regularization is denoising. By extension, GREYCstoration can also be used to inpaint or resize images.

GREYCstoration is based on state-of-the-art methods using nonlinear multi-valued diffusion PDE's (Partial Differential Equations) for image regularization. This kind of method generally outperforms basic image filtering techniques (such as convolution, median filtering, etc.), classically encountered in painting programs.

Other image denoising plugins are available (for instance, Noise Ninja, Neat Image ) but are not free, and the corresponding algorithms are kept secret.

What's New in This Release:
The regularization algorithm has been improved and now performs three times faster than previous versions.
A edge-enhancement filter was added, allowing more sharply restored images.
Some bugs with filenames containing spaces have been corrected.
