Improving Image Denoising Performance With CNN-Attention-Like Encoder Layers
摘要
Image denoising is a fundamental task in computer vision, critical for improving image quality in a variety of applications. This research presents a novel technique for image denoising that employs dual Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) encoders and attention-based decoders. This research uses the strengths of attention mechanisms to selectively reconstitute features retrieved by encoders, improving the quality of denoised images. Furthermore, it offers a method for combining attention maps from various encoders to improve the denoising process. In terms of objective quality and its capacity to reduce noise, the CNN with Attention (CNWATT2) denoising technique performs better than the previously employed denoising models.
