The robust image processing systems need to be fed with images closer to a real scene; however, sometimes, due to external factors, the data that represent the image captured are altered, which is translated into a loss of information. In this way, there are required procedures to recover data information closest to the real scene. This research project proposes a Denoising Vanilla Autoencoding (DVA) architecture by means of unsupervised neural networks for Gaussian denoising in color and grayscale images. The methodology improves other state-of-the-art architectures by means of objective numerical results. Additionally, a validation set and a high-resolution noisy image set are used, which reveal that our proposal outperforms other types of neural networks responsible for suppressing noise in images.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e25101467","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,20]],"date-time":"2023-10-20T07:22:32Z","timestamp":1697786552000},"page":"1467","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Denoising Vanilla Autoencoder for RGB and GS Images with Gaussian Noise"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"25","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4673-0490","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Armando Adri\u00e1n","family":"Miranda-Gonz\u00e1lez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela Superior de Ingenier\u00eda Mec\u00e1nica y El\u00e9ctrica Unidad Zacatenco Secci\u00f3n de Estudios de Posgrado e Investigaci\u00f3n, Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional, Mexico City 07738, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8436-3025","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alberto Jorge","family":"Rosales-Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela Superior de Ingenier\u00eda Mec\u00e1nica y El\u00e9ctrica Unidad Zacatenco Secci\u00f3n de Estudios de Posgrado e Investigaci\u00f3n, Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional, Mexico City 07738, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8665-4096","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dante","family":"M\u00fajica-Vargas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Ciencias Computacionales, Tecnol\u00f3gico Nacional de M\u00e9xico, Cuernavaca 62490, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3772-3651","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ponciano Jorge","family":"Escamilla-Ambrosio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centro de Investigaci\u00f3n en Computaci\u00f3n, Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional, Mexico City 07738, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4854-6438","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Francisco Javier","family":"Gallegos-Funes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela Superior de Ingenier\u00eda Mec\u00e1nica y El\u00e9ctrica Unidad Zacatenco Secci\u00f3n de Estudios de Posgrado e Investigaci\u00f3n, Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional, Mexico City 07738, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5237-3050","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jean Marie","family":"Vianney-Kinani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departamento de Ciencias Computacionales, Tecnol\u00f3gico Nacional de M\u00e9xico, Cuernavaca 62490, Mexico"},{"name":"Unidad Profesional Interdisciplinaria de Ingenier\u00eda Campus Hidalgo, Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional, Pachuca de Soto 42162, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8242-6731","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Erick","family":"Vel\u00e1zquez-Lozada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela Superior de Ingenier\u00eda Mec\u00e1nica y El\u00e9ctrica Unidad Zacatenco Secci\u00f3n de Estudios de Posgrado e Investigaci\u00f3n, Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional, Mexico City 07738, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Luis Manuel","family":"P\u00e9rez-Hern\u00e1ndez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela Superior de Ingenier\u00eda Mec\u00e1nica y El\u00e9ctrica Unidad Zacatenco Secci\u00f3n de Estudios de Posgrado e Investigaci\u00f3n, Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional, Mexico City 07738, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5686-1956","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lucero Ver\u00f3nica","family":"Lozano-V\u00e1zquez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela Superior de Ingenier\u00eda Mec\u00e1nica y El\u00e9ctrica Unidad Zacatenco Secci\u00f3n de Estudios de Posgrado e Investigaci\u00f3n, Instituto Polit\u00e9cnico Nacional, Mexico City 07738, Mexico"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Limshuebchuey, A., Duangsoithong, R., and Saejia, M.
