摘要:
近年来,基于深度学习的方法已在图像去雾领域占据主导地位。为进一步提升去雾性能,本文提出一种由多流特征注意力模块(MSFAB)和交叉非局部模块(CNLB)组成的多感受野非局部网络(MRFNLN)。我们首先为去雾任务提取更丰富的特征:具体而言,设计了包含三个不同感受野(即$1\ imes 1$、$3\ imes 3$、$5\ imes 5$)并行卷积的多流特征提取(MSFE)子模块,用于提取多尺度特征;在MSFE之后,采用注意力子模块使模型自适应聚焦于重要的通道/区域,这两个子模块共同构成了MSFAB。随后,我们设计了交叉非局部模块(CNLB),可捕获查询范围之外的长距离依赖关系:与查询分支采用相同输入源不同,键分支和值分支通过融合更多前置特征得到增强;CNLB利用空间金字塔下采样(SPDS)策略在不牺牲性能的前提下降低计算量与内存消耗,具备计算友好性。最后,本文提出一种新型的聚焦细节的对比正则化(DFCR),在专门为去雾设计的表征空间中,强调低层细节并忽略高层语义信息。综合实验结果表明,所提出的MRFNLN模型参数量不足150万,性能优于近期最先进的去雾方法。
英文摘要:
Recently, deep learning-based methods have dominated image dehazing domain. A multi-receptive-field non-local network (MRFNLN) consisting of the multi-stream feature attention block (MSFAB) and the cross non-local block (CNLB) is presented in this paper to further enhance the performance. We start with extracting richer features for dehazing. Specifically, a multi-stream feature extraction (MSFE) sub-block, which contains three parallel convolutions with different receptive fields (i.e., $1\times 1$, $3\times 3$, $5\times 5$), is designed for extracting multi-scale features. Following MSFE, an attention sub-block is employed to make the model adaptively focus on important channels/regions. These two sub-blocks constitute our MSFAB. Then, we design a cross non-local block (CNLB), which can capture long-range dependencies beyond the query. Instead of the same input source of query branch, the key and value branches are enhanced by fusing more preceding features. CNLB is computation-friendly by leveraging a spatial pyramid down-sampling (SPDS) strategy to reduce the computation and memory consumption without sacrificing the performance. Last but not least, a novel detail-focused contrastive regularization (DFCR) is presented by emphasizing the low-level details and ignoring the high-level semantic information in a representation space specially designed for dehazing. Comprehensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed MRFNLN model outperforms recent state-of-the-art dehazing methods with less than 1.5 Million parameters.
