| has gloss | eng: In statistics, the Anscombe transform (1948) is a variance-stabilizing transformation that transforms a random variable with a Poisson distribution into one with an approximately Gaussian distribution. The Anscombe transform is widely used in photon-limited imaging (astronomy, X-ray) where images naturally follow the Poisson law. The Anscombe transform is usually used to pre-process the data in order to have the noise of constant standard deviation so as to apply denoising algorithms in the extensively studied framework of Gaussian additive noise. |
