Abstract

The invention discloses an unsupervised learning method and system for low-illumination image enhancement, and belongs to the field of low-illumination image enhancement. In order to solve the problems that the quantity of supervision data is small and the supervision data is difficult to obtain, a training set of non-paired samples is firstly constructed, then a generator and a discriminator of a generative adversarial network are constructed by considering the brightness and semantic information of images, low-illumination images in the training set are input into the generator, and enhanced images are obtained and inputted into the discriminator, and the authenticity of the input images is distinguished; network parameters are updated and optimized by minimizing a loss function, and a trained model is obtained; and finally, a to-be-processed low-illumination image is enhnaced by using the trained generative adversarial network to obtain the enhanced image. According to the method, non-paired training can be regularized based on the brightness and semantic segmentation information of the input image, the problem of poor model effect caused by lack of supervision information is reduced, and the problems of overexposure and non-uniform color distribution after image enhancement can be solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of low-light image enhancement, and relates to a non-supervised learning method and system for low-light image enhancement, which can be widely applied to various low-light scenes that need to increase the brightness of images or videos to improve visibility. Background technique [0002] With the development of photographic technology, image quality has greatly improved in terms of resolution and clarity. However, due to unavoidable environmental or technical limitations, images captured under non-uniform lighting environments are still affected by low-light conditions, resulting in low visibility. Images in low-light environments are important analysis data in many scenes, so nighttime surveillance video / image enhancement processing is the key to fully maximizing the effectiveness of video surveillance systems, and it is also the premise of applying intelligent systems based on computer vision algorithms at night ....
