The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.

[0041] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a highway scene reconstruction method based on low-light image enhancement includes the following steps:

[0042] S1. Collect daytime highway images and real nighttime highway images, and synthesize the daytime highway images into nighttime highway images.

[0043] S2. Use the synthetic nighttime highway images and the real nighttime highway images as a dataset, and divide the dataset into a training set and a test set.

[0044] Among them, when collecting daytime highway images, Adobe Lightroom software can be used to artificially synthesize nighttime highway images by changing the exposure, highlights, shadows, saturation, and white level properties of the daytime highway images. Together with the collected real nighttime highway images, they are used as a dataset for the subsequent training and testing of the low-light image enhancement model.

[0045] S3. Build a low-light image enhancement model. The low-light image enhancement model includes an illumination optimization module and a texture detail enhancement module, where:

[0048] Among them, u t is the illumination at the t-th iteration, H(·) is the illumination function, I 0 is the input image of the 0th iteration, that is, the original input image S, I t is the input image of the tth iteration, I t+1 is the input image of the t+1th iteration, θ is the parameter of the illumination function, t∈{0, 1, …, T-1}, and T is the number of iterations;

[0049] The Texture Detail Enhancement module is used to perform the following operations:

[0050] Normal light characteristic diagram The Sobel operator is used to extract features in the height direction and width direction, and the corresponding height direction feature map is obtained. and width-wise feature maps Normal light characteristic diagram That is, the illumination optimization feature map I T ;

[0051] The height directional feature map and width-wise feature maps Superposition forms a first fusion feature map;

[0052] Combine the first fusion feature map with the normal light feature map Superposition is performed to form a second fusion feature map;

[0053] The second fusion feature map is convolved through the sixteenth convolution layer to obtain the final feature

[0054] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the illumination optimization module extracts features from the original input image (which can be a synthetic nighttime highway image or a real nighttime highway image) to obtain the output features of the current iteration, and then inputs the output features of the current iteration into the illumination optimization module for the next iteration. After T iterations, the illumination optimization feature map I is obtained. T .

[0055] F(I t ) is the learning function, and the entire learning process is iterated T times, t∈{0, 1,…, T-1}, θ is the parameter of the illumination function, which is specifically expressed as the weight in the convolution process of the illumination function.

Otherwise, the p-th pixel is considered not to be an edge point and there is no need to obtain the corresponding image edge information.
