Abstract: * Given a degraded input image, image restoration aims to recover the missing high-quality image content. Numerous applications demand effective image restoration, e.g., computational photography, surveillance, autonomous vehicles, and remote sensing. Significant advances in image restoration have been made in recent years, dominated by convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The widely-used CNN-based methods typically operate either on full-resolution or on progressively low-resolution representations. In the former case, spatial details are preserved but the contextual information cannot be precisely encoded. In the latter case, generated outputs are semantically reliable but spatially less accurate. This paper presents a new architecture with a holistic goal of maintaining spatially-precise high-resolution representations through the entire network, and receiving complementary contextual information from the low-resolution representations. The core of our approach is a multi-scale residual block containing the following key elements: (a) parallel multi-resolution convolution streams for extracting multi-scale features, (b) information exchange across the multi-resolution streams, (c) non-local attention mechanism for capturing contextual information, and (d) attention based multi-scale feature aggregation. Our approach learns an enriched set of features that combines contextual information from multiple scales, while simultaneously preserving the high-resolution spatial details. Extensive experiments on six real image benchmark datasets demonstrate that our method, named as MIRNet-v2 , achieves state-of-the-art results for a variety of image processing tasks, including defocus deblurring, image denoising, super-resolution, and image enhancement.*

Installation

See INSTALL.md for the installation of dependencies required to run MIRNet_v2.

Demo

To test the pre-trained MIRNet_v2 models of Real Denoising, Dual-Pixel Defocus Deblurring, Super-Resolution, and Image Enhancement on your own images,you can either use Google Colab Open In Colab, or command line as following

python demo.py --task Task_Name --input_dir path_to_images --result_dir save_images_here

Example usage to perform Image Denoising on a directory of images:

python demo.py --task real_denoising --input_dir './demo/degraded/' --result_dir './demo/restored/'

Example usage to perform Image Denoising on an image directly:

python demo.py --task real_denoising --input_dir './demo/degraded/noisy.png' --result_dir './demo/restored/'
