Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. The components of embodiments of the present invention generally described and illustrated in the figures herein may be arranged and designed in a wide variety of different configurations.
Thus, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention, presented in the figures, is not intended to limit the scope of the invention, as claimed, but is merely representative of selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Due to the limitation of storage space and transmission bandwidth, images transmitted on a network are usually compressed images obtained through multiple times of compression, compression noise is generated in the compression process of the images, and the image distortion may be caused by the high compression noise to influence user experience. In the related art, for an image with noise, a deep learning mode can be generally adopted to train a denoising model, and the noise in the image is removed through the denoising model, so that the image quality is improved. The sample images in the training sample set are typically required to be labeled with noise levels.
In the related technology, a marking person compares a sample image with a standard image of each noise level by naked eyes to further determine the noise level of the sample image and marks the noise level, but because the image content of the sample image to be marked is different from that of the standard image, the difficulty of judging the noise level of the sample image by the naked eyes is high, the accuracy is low, and the denoising effect of a denoising model obtained based on sample image training is poor.
Based on the above, the embodiments of the present invention provide a method, an apparatus, and a server for determining an image noise level, where the technique may be applied in noise level determination scenarios of various image noises, especially noise level determination scenarios of compression noise and gaussian noise. To facilitate understanding of the present embodiment, a detailed description is first provided for a method for determining a noise level of an image, as disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following specific steps:
step S102, acquiring an image to be processed.
The image to be processed is usually a photo taken by a camera, or a video frame in a video; the image to be processed can be an image with blurring or loss of detail texture caused by the existence of noise; the image to be processed may include a person, an animal, a building, a landscape, and the like.
Step S104, inputting the to-be-processed image into a plurality of pre-trained denoising models, and outputting a denoised to-be-processed image corresponding to each denoising model; each denoising model is preset with denoising intensity corresponding to the denoising model; and each denoising model carries out denoising processing on the image to be processed according to the denoising intensity corresponding to the denoising model.
The denoising model can be a neural network model or a deep learning model. Each denoising model presets a corresponding denoising intensity, which can be represented by letters or numbers, for example, 1, 2, 3, etc., and generally, the larger the number is, the higher the denoising intensity is. The denoising strength can be determined by a sample set of a training model, namely the strength of noise existing in a sample image in the sample set, and the denoising strength of the denoising model is determined. During specific implementation, the number of the denoising models can be set according to user requirements, and the more the denoising models are set, the more corresponding denoising strength gears are, and the more subsequent noise levels can be determined.
The image to be processed is input into the denoising model, the denoising model can perform denoising processing on the image to be processed according to the denoising intensity corresponding to the denoising model, and due to the fact that the denoising intensity corresponding to each denoising model is different, the image to be processed output by each denoising model after denoising is different for the same image to be processed, namely the denoising result of each denoising model on the same image to be processed is different.
And S106, determining the noise level of the image to be processed according to the denoised image to be processed corresponding to each denoising model and the denoising strength corresponding to each denoising model.
The denoising effect of the denoised image to be processed corresponding to each denoising model is different, and the denoising effect is best when the denoising intensity of the denoising model is the same as or matched with the denoising intensity existing in the image to be processed; the larger the difference between the denoising intensity of the denoising model and the noise intensity existing in the image to be processed is, the worse the denoising effect is; the noise intensity existing in the image to be processed corresponds to the noise level, which can also be understood as that the denoising intensity corresponds to the noise level, that is, the stronger the denoising intensity is, the higher the noise level of the image to be processed is, wherein the noise level can be represented by a number, for example, 1, 2, 3, etc., and the larger the number is, the larger the noise level is.
In specific implementation, the noise level appearing in the to-be-processed image can be obtained through the denoising effect of the denoising model, for example, the noise level of the to-be-processed image can be determined according to the denoising intensity corresponding to the denoising model with the best denoising effect, and generally, the denoising effect is best, namely, the noise in the to-be-processed image can be effectively removed, and the detail information in the image is kept as much as possible. For example, the denoising model with the denoising intensity of 1 has the best denoising effect on the image to be processed, and 1 is determined as the noise level of the image to be processed.
The invention provides a method for determining the noise level of an image, which comprises the steps of firstly obtaining an image to be processed; inputting the image to be processed into a plurality of pre-trained denoising models, and outputting a denoised image to be processed corresponding to each denoising model; each denoising model is preset with denoising intensity corresponding to the denoising model; each denoising model carries out denoising processing on the image to be processed according to the denoising intensity corresponding to the denoising model; and then determining the noise level of the image to be processed according to the denoised image to be processed corresponding to each denoising model and the denoising intensity corresponding to each denoising model. According to the method, the to-be-processed images are denoised by adopting the denoising models with different denoising strengths, then the denoising grade of the to-be-processed images is determined according to the denoising effect of each denoising model, compared with a mode of judging the noise grade of the images through visual comparison, the mode improves the accuracy of judging the denoising grade, and is favorable for improving the denoising effect of the denoising model obtained by training based on the to-be-processed images marked with the denoising grades.
The method is realized on the basis of the method of the embodiment; the method mainly describes a specific process for training each denoising model, and provides a method for training the denoising models as shown in fig. 2, wherein the method comprises the following specific steps:
step S202, determining a sample image pair based on a sample set corresponding to a current denoising model; the sample image pair comprises a standard image and a noise image obtained by adding noise to the standard image based on the denoising intensity corresponding to the current denoising model.
The sample set usually includes a plurality of standard images, which are usually high-definition images, and noise images can be obtained by adding noise with different denoising intensities to the high-definition images. The sample image pair generally comprises a standard image and a noise image corresponding to the standard image, and in the specific implementation, under the condition that the denoising intensity corresponding to the denoising model is determined, the standard image can be obtained from the sample set, and then the noise corresponding to the denoising intensity is added to the standard image to obtain the noise image, so that a sample image pair is obtained; or directly adding noise according to the intensity of the denoising intensity to all the standard images in the sample set to obtain a noise image, so as to combine the standard images and the corresponding noise images into a sample image pair, and storing the sample image pair in the sample set to extract the required sample image pair from the sample set.
The sample set may adopt a data set DIV2K, where the data set DIV2K generally includes 1000 high-definition images (2K resolution), where 800 images serve as a training set, 100 images serve as a verification set, and another 100 images serve as a test set, and at the same time, the images in the data set DIV2K are compressed or reduced in quality, so as to obtain low-definition images (corresponding to the above noise images), and the images in the data set DIV2K may be compressed or reduced in quality generally according to the number of denoising models and corresponding denoising strengths. The more the quality of the image in the data set DIV2K is generally degraded, the higher the noise intensity of the resulting noisy image.
For example, assuming that the quality of the high-definition image of the data set DIV2K is 100, and the quality of the high-definition image is reduced to 20, 30, 40, 60, and 80, respectively, five sets of noise images with different noise intensities can be obtained, wherein the noise intensity corresponding to the noise image with the quality of 20 is the highest, and the noise intensity corresponding to the noise image with the quality of 80 is the weakest. The five groups of noise images with different noise intensities respectively correspond to five groups of denoising models with different denoising intensities, for example, a noise image corresponding sample set with the quality of 20 can be trained to obtain a strong denoising model, a noise image corresponding sample set with the quality of 30 can be trained to obtain a medium-strong denoising model, a noise image corresponding sample set with the quality of 40 can be trained to obtain a medium denoising model, a noise image corresponding sample set with the quality of 60 can be trained to obtain a medium-weak denoising model, and a noise image corresponding sample set with the quality of 80 can be trained to obtain a weak denoising model.
And S204, training a preset initial network model through the sample image pair to obtain a current denoising model.
Inputting the sample image pair into a preset initial network model to obtain an output result, adjusting model parameters in the initial network model according to the output result, and continuing to execute the step of determining the sample image pair based on the sample set corresponding to the current denoising model until the output result is in accordance with expectation or the preset training iteration number (for example, 500 times) is reached, finishing training and obtaining the current denoising model. In a specific implementation, each denoising model can be determined by using the training method of the current denoising model, and in the training process, a sample image pair corresponding to each denoising model is different, that is, the standard images in the sample image pair are the same, but the noise intensity of the noise image corresponding to each standard image is different.
In some embodiments, the initial network model includes a network add and a network drop; the network uplink comprises a first convolution block, a residual error body and a second convolution block; the network downlink includes a third volume block, and fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of the initial network model. The first convolution block in fig. 3 is typically composed of convolution layers, normalization layers and activation function layers, wherein the convolution layers may be 3 × 3 convolution or 5 × 5 convolution; the residual volume typically consists of a number of residual blocks, typically consisting of 2 3 x 3 convolutions, 2 normalization layers and 1 activation function layer, the second and third convolution blocks typically having the same structure as the first convolution block.
Based on the network structure of the initial model, the step S204 can be implemented by the following steps 10-13:
and step 10, respectively inputting the noise images in the sample image pair into the first volume block and the third volume block.
Step 11, in the network path, processing the noise image by the first convolution block, the residual error body and the second convolution block in sequence to obtain a first intermediate result; and in the network downlink, processing the noise image through a third convolution block to obtain a second intermediate result.
In the network path, firstly performing convolution processing on a noise image through a first convolution block, then sending the noise image after the convolution processing into a residual error body, outputting a characteristic diagram corresponding to the noise image, and then sending the characteristic diagram to a second convolution module for convolution processing to obtain a first intermediate result, wherein the first intermediate result is the characteristic diagram after the convolution processing; in the network downlink, the noise image is convolved by three convolution blocks to obtain a second intermediate result, and the second intermediate result is the noise image after convolution.
Step 12, adding the first intermediate result and the second intermediate result to obtain an addition result; the addition result may be an image obtained by superimposing the convolution-processed feature map and the convolution-processed noise image.
And step 13, calculating a loss value according to the addition result and a standard image in the sample image pair, adjusting parameters in the initial network model according to the loss value, and continuously executing the step of determining the sample image pair based on the sample set corresponding to the current denoising model until the loss value is converged to obtain the current denoising model.
In specific implementation, a loss value corresponding to the initial network model can be obtained according to the addition result and a residual error value or a difference value of the standard image; the addition result and the standard image may be input into a preset loss function, so as to obtain a loss value, where the loss function may be a mean square error loss function, a cross entropy loss function, a difference loss function, or the like. In general, the loss value may characterize the difference between the addition result and the standard image, and in general, the larger the loss value, the larger the difference between the addition result and the standard image.
Parameters in the initial network model can be adjusted based on the loss values to achieve the purpose of training. In the training process, a sample image pair is continuously determined from a sample set corresponding to the current denoising model, and a noise image in the sample image pair is input into the initial network model to obtain a loss value, until model parameters in the initial network model converge, namely when the loss value converges, the training is finished to obtain the current denoising model.
Firstly, determining a sample image pair based on a sample set corresponding to a current denoising model; the sample image pair comprises a standard image and a noise image which is obtained by adding noise to the standard image based on the denoising intensity corresponding to the current denoising model, and then the preset initial network model is trained through the sample image pair to obtain the current denoising model. The denoising model obtained by the mode training can perform denoising processing on the image according to the denoising intensity, so that the denoising processing on the image to be processed is facilitated, and the noise level of the image to be processed is obtained according to the denoising level of the denoising image.
The embodiment of the invention also provides another method for determining the noise level of the image, which is realized on the basis of the method of the embodiment; the method mainly describes a specific process of determining the noise level of the image to be processed according to the denoised image to be processed corresponding to each denoising model and the denoising strength corresponding to each denoising model (specifically, the method is realized by the following steps S406-S408); as shown in fig. 4, the training method includes the following steps:
step S402, acquiring an image to be processed.
Step S404, inputting the image to be processed into a plurality of pre-trained denoising models, and outputting a denoised image to be processed corresponding to each denoising model; each denoising model is preset with denoising intensity corresponding to the denoising model; and each denoising model carries out denoising processing on the image to be processed according to the denoising intensity corresponding to the denoising model.
Step S406, selecting the denoised image to be processed with the optimal display effect from the denoised images to be processed corresponding to each denoising model.
The image to be processed after denoising output by each denoising model can be displayed in a graphical interaction interface of a user terminal, a user can judge and display the image with the best denoising effect in the denoised images to be processed corresponding to the denoising models through naked eyes, then the user triggers a control or a button corresponding to the image with the good denoising effect in the graphical interaction interface, and an image determination designation is sent to determine the denoised image with the best display effect; the denoised image to be processed can also be calculated by adopting a preset algorithm or formula, and the denoised image to be processed with the optimal display effect can be automatically determined based on the calculation result. The preset algorithm or formula can calculate the size, display accuracy and the like of pixel points in the image, and can also calculate detail information in the image.
Step S408, determining the denoising intensity of the denoising model corresponding to the denoised image to be processed with the optimal display effect as the noise level of the image to be processed.
For example, when there are five denoising models, the denoising strength of the denoising model can be represented as 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 from large to small, if the effect of the denoised image to be processed output by the denoising model with the denoising strength of 3 is optimal, the noise level of the image to be processed is determined as 3, and it can also be understood that the denoising model with the denoising strength of 3 can effectively remove the noise in the image to be processed, and can retain the detail information in the original image as much as possible.
