In this paper, we present a Fast Motion Deblurring-Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (FMD-cGAN) that helps in blind motion deblurring of a single image. FMD-cGAN delivers impressive structural similarity and visual appearance after…

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) rely on a variety of sensors - acoustic, inertial and visual - for intelligent decision making. Due to its non-intrusive, passive nature, and high information content, vision is an attractive sensing…

Existing approaches for restoring weather-degraded images follow a fully-supervised paradigm and they require paired data for training. However, collecting paired data for weather degradations is extremely challenging, and existing methods…

This paper introduces a novel approach to image denoising that leverages the advantages of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Specifically, we propose a model that combines elements of the Pix2Pix model and the Wasserstein GAN (WGAN)…

Image content is a predominant factor in marketing campaigns, websites and banners. Today, marketers and designers spend considerable time and money in generating such professional quality content. We take a step towards simplifying this…

Single image deraining is an important and challenging task for some downstream artificial intelligence applications such as video surveillance and self-driving systems. Most of the existing deep-learning-based methods constrain the network…

Deraining is a significant and fundamental computer vision task, aiming to remove the rain streaks and accumulations in an image or video captured under a rainy day. Existing deraining methods usually make heuristic assumptions of the rain…

Face aging, which renders aging faces for an input face, has attracted extensive attention in the multimedia research. Recently, several conditional Generative Adversarial Nets (GANs) based methods have achieved great success. They can…
