Cascaded residual error neural network-based image denoising method

Abstract

The invention discloses a cascaded residual error neural network-based image denoising method. The method comprises the following steps of building a cascaded residual error neural network model, wherein the cascaded residual error neural network model is formed by connecting a plurality of residual error units in series, and each residual error unit comprises a plurality of convolutional layers, active layers after the convolutional layers and unit jump connection units; selecting a training set, and setting training parameters of the cascaded residual error neural network model; training the cascaded residual error neural network model by taking a minimized loss function as a target according to the cascaded residual error neural network model and the training parameters of the cascaded residual error neural network model to form an image denoising neural network model; and inputting a to-be-processed image to the image denoising neural network model, and outputting a denoised image. According to the cascaded residual error neural network-based image denoising method disclosed by the invention, the learning ability of the neural network is greatly enhanced, accurate mapping from noisy images to clean images is established, and real-time denoising can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of computer vision and digital image processing, in particular to an image denoising method based on a cascaded residual neural network. Background technique [0002] Image denoising is a classic and fundamental problem in computer vision and image processing. It is a necessary preprocessing process to solve many related problems. Its purpose is to restore a potential clean image x from a noisy image y. The process can be expressed as: y=x+n, where n is usually considered as Additive White Gaussian (AWG), which is a typical ill-conditioned linear inverse problem. In order to solve this problem, many early methods are solved by local filtering, such as Gaussian filtering, median filtering, bilateral filtering, etc. These local filtering methods neither filter in the global scope nor consider the relationship between natural image blocks and The connection between blocks, so the obtained denoising effect is not satisf...
