We propose a new image denoising algorithm when the data is contaminated by a Poisson noise. As in the Non-Local Means filter, the proposed algorithm is based on a weighted linear combination of the bserved image. But in contract to the latter where the weights are defined by a Gaussian kernel, we propose to choose them in an optimal way. First some "oracle" weights are defined by minimizing a very tight upper bound of the Mean Square Error. For a practical application the weights are estimated from the observed image. We prove that the proposed filter converges at the usual optimal rate to the true image. Simulation results are presented to compare the performance of the presented filter with conventional filtering methods.
