contents Image reconstruction in the presence of severe degradation remains a challenging inverse problem, particularly in beam diagnostics for high-energy physics accelerators. As modern facilities demand precise detection of beam halo structures to control losses, traditional analysis tools have reached their performance limits. This work reviews existing image-processing techniques for data cleaning, contour extraction, and emittance reconstruction, and introduces a novel approach based on convolutional filtering and neural networks with optimized early-stopping strategies in order to control overfitting. Despite the absence of training datasets, the proposed unsupervised framework achieves robust denoising and high-fidelity reconstruction of beam emittance images under low signal-to-noise conditions. The method extends measurable amplitudes beyond seven standard deviations, enabling unprecedented halo resolution.
