Classic image-restoration algorithms use a variety of priors, either implicitly or explicitly. Their priors are hand-designed and their corresponding weights are heuristically assigned. Hence, deep learning methods often produce superior image restoration quality. Deep networks are, however, capable of inducing strong and hardly predictable hallucinations. Networks implicitly learn to be jointly faithful to the observed data while learning an image prior; and the separation of original data and hallucinated data downstream is then not possible. This limits their wide-spread adoption in image restoration. Furthermore, it is often the hallucinated part that is victim to degradation-model overfitting. We present an approach with decoupled network-prior based hallucination and data fidelity terms. We refer to our framework as the Bayesian Integration of a Generative Prior (BIGPrior). Our method is rooted in a Bayesian framework and tightly connected to classic restoration methods. In fact, it can be viewed as a generalization of a large family of classic restoration algorithms. We use network inversion to extract image prior information from a generative network. We show that, on image colorization, inpainting and denoising, our framework consistently improves the inversion results. Our method, though partly reliant on the quality of the generative network inversion, is competitive with state-of-the-art supervised and task-specific restoration methods. It also provides an additional metric that sets forth the degree of prior reliance per pixel relative to data fidelity.
