MSAU-Net: A Lightweight Self-Supervised Image Denoising Network with ReLU-Based Global Context Attention
摘要
In image denoising, neural network models based on the UNet architecture have become the mainstream due to their excellent performance and strong reconstruction capabilities. However, their heavy reliance on paired data and high computational costs limit their deployment and application on embedded devices. This paper adopts the Blind2Unblind (B2U) self-supervised training framework and proposes a lightweight U-Net-based denoising network with improved computational efficiency. This network is based on the UNet architecture, enhancing multi-scale denoising capabilities through multiple convolutional blocks and branch feature fusion, and introducing global attention by combining depthwise separable convolution, short skip connections, and GCBlock. To achieve lightweight, the softmax in GCBlock is replaced with
