In this paper, we propose a novel multi-frame image denoising technique, which achieves the minimum variance of noise. Zero-mean and unknown variance white noise with an arbitrary distribution is considered in this paper. The proposed method consists of two parts. The first one is the estimation of the variance of noise for each image by considering the differences of all pairs of images. The second one is an actual denoising process in which the convex combination of all images with weight coefficients determined by the estimated variances is constructed. We also give an efficient algorithm by which we can obtain the same result by successive convex combinations. The efficacy of the proposed method is confirmed by computer simulations.
