Image denoising using deep CNN with batch renormalization(BRDNet)by Chunwei Tian, Yong Xu and Wangmeng Zuo is publised in Neural Networks (IF:9.657), 2020. (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0893608019302394) and it is implemented by Keras.

This paper is pushed on home page of the Nueral Networks and BRDNet is collected by iHub,which is Chinese largest artificial intelligence platform. Also, it becomes a ESI highly cited paper. It is a contribution code of the GitHub in 2020. Additionally, it is reported by wechat public accounts at https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/Jk6PlRBYorLI5FSa5xxOkw and https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/dSCRx-6QW9bFDYQkDBGdLw.

This paper is the first paper via using enlaring the network width for addressing image denoising. Also, it is the first paper via deep network to address real noisy images of CC.

Absract

Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have attracted great attention in the field of image denoising. However, there are two drawbacks: (1) It is very difficult to train a deeper CNN for denoising tasks, and (2) most of deeper CNNs suffer from performance saturation. In this paper, we report the design of a novel network called a batch-renormalization denoising network (BRDNet). Specifically, we combine two networks to increase the width of the network, and thus obtain more features. Because batch renormalization is fused into BRDNet, we can address the internal covariate shift and small mini-batchproblems. Residual learning is also adopted in a holistic way to facilitate network training. Dilated convolutions are exploited to extract more information for denoising tasks. Extensive experimental results show that BRDNet outperforms state-of-the-art image denoising methods. The code of BRDNet is accessible at http://www.yongxu.org/lunwen.html.
