heya, good stuff, irc is a good idea. in the meantime, have a look at https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/blob/master/src/iop/useless_simple.c(or just useless.c if you prefer) to get you started in the framework. the guts go into process() and opencl can be done later. happy to support you

Sure, I'm not pointing the finger at profiled denoise specifically as my comments apply equally to any of the other tools, and I agree the profiled denoise is a real good starting point for processing images in general. I merely draw the observation that when shadows are boosted it seems as if t

hey, profiled denoise is purely driven by numbers.. the input is measured noise variances and the output is adjusted to minimise some mean square error if you don't do any other processing. it does that by minimising the risk of destroying data that was actually present in the input, while trying

Thanks Jo, I wonder if I have misunderstood. Say I take an image at 800 ISO and profiled denoise handles it just fine, but then I come along and hit it with shadows and highlights or otherwise boost shadows by two stops to pull out detail. My eyes now tell me that I can see noise in those lig

'Hot pixels' is exactly an 'impulse noise reduction' filter, you can lower the threshold if it doesn't fit your needs. Apart from that, you only have to use the 'Denoise profiled' (which as something like 2 useful sliders, and often works out of the box), so I don't quite see why the situation is s
