Single-image deraining is rather challenging due to the unknown rain model. Existing methods often make specific assumptions of the rain model, which can hardly cover many diverse circumstances in the real world, making them have to employ…
We present a supervised technique for learning to remove rain from images without using synthetic rain software. The method is based on a two-stage data distillation approach: 1) A rainy image is first paired with a coarsely derained…
Rain streaks bring complicated pixel intensity changes and additional gradients, greatly obstructing the extraction of image features from background. This causes serious performance degradation in feature-based applications. Thus, it is…
Single image deraining task is still a very challenging task due to its ill-posed nature in reality. Recently, researchers have tried to fix this issue by training the CNN-based end-to-end models, but they still cannot extract the negative…
Existing deraining methods focus mainly on a single input image. However, with just a single input image, it is extremely difficult to accurately detect and remove rain streaks, in order to restore a rain-free image. In contrast, a light…
In real-world environments, outdoor imaging systems are often affected by disturbances such as rain degradation. Especially, in nighttime driving scenes, insufficient and uneven lighting shrouds the scenes in darkness, resulting degradation…
Severe weather conditions such as rain and snow adversely affect the visual quality of images captured under such conditions thus rendering them useless for further usage and sharing. In addition, such degraded images drastically affect…
Image deraining is an essential vision technique that removes rain streaks and water droplets, enhancing clarity for critical vision tasks like autonomous driving. However, current single-scale models struggle with fine-grained recovery and…
We propose RainyScape, an unsupervised framework for reconstructing clean scenes from a collection of multi-view rainy images. RainyScape consists of two main modules: a neural rendering module and a rain-prediction module that incorporates…
How to effectively explore multi-scale representations of rain streaks is important for image deraining. In contrast to existing Transformer-based methods that depend mostly on single-scale rain appearance, we develop an end-to-end…
Image deraining is a typical low-level image restoration task, which aims at decomposing the rainy image into two distinguishable layers: the clean image layer and the rain layer. Most of the existing learning-based deraining methods are…
Acquisition of data with adverse conditions in robotics is a cumbersome task due to the difficulty in guaranteeing proper ground truth and synchronising with desired weather conditions. In this paper, we present a simple method - recording…
It is challenging to remove rain-steaks from a single rainy image because the rain steaks are spatially varying in the rainy image. Although the CNN based methods have reported promising performance recently, there are still some defects,…
Restoring clear frames from rainy videos presents a significant challenge due to the rapid motion of rain streaks. Traditional frame-based visual sensors, which capture scene content synchronously, struggle to capture the fast-moving…
The quality of images captured outdoors is often affected by the weather. One factor that interferes with sight is rain, which can obstruct the view of observers and computer vision applications that rely on those images. The work aims to…
Due to the difficulty in collecting paired real-world training data, image deraining is currently dominated by supervised learning with synthesized data generated by e.g., Photoshop rendering. However, the generalization to real rainy…
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…
Existing deep learning-based image deraining methods have achieved promising performance for synthetic rainy images, typically rely on the pairs of sharp images and simulated rainy counterparts. However, these methods suffer from…
Rain streaks in the air appear in various blurring degrees and resolutions due to different distances from their positions to the camera. Similar rain patterns are visible in a rain image as well as its multi-scale (or multi-resolution)…
Different rain models and novel network structures have been proposed to remove rain streaks from single rainy images. In this work, we bring attention to the intrinsic priors and multi-scale features of the rainy images, and develop…
