  [1] G. Varghese and Z. Wang, Video denoising based on a
      spatiotemporal Gaussian scale mixture model, IEEE Transactions on 
       Circuit and Systems for Video Technology, to appear, 2010

The toolbox is built on the BLS-GSM toolbox develeoped by Javier Portilla(http://decsai.ugr.es/~javier/denoise/).
