Zusammenfassung:Single image de-raining is an emerging paradigm for many outdoor computer vision applications since rain streaks can significantly degrade the visibility and render the function compromised. The introduction of deep learning (DL) has brought about substantial advancement on de-raining methods. However, most existing DL-based methods use single homogeneous network architecture to generate de-rained images in a general image restoration manner, ignoring the discrepancy between rain location detection and rain intensity estimation. We find that this discrepancy would cause feature interference and representation ability degradation problems which significantly affect de-raining performance. In this paper, we propose a novel heterogeneous de-raining architecture aiming to decouple rain location detection and rain intensity estimation (DLINet). For these two subtasks, we provide dedicated network structures according to their differential properties to meet their respective performance requirements. To coordinate the decoupled subnetworks, we develop a high-order collaborative network learning the dynamic inter-layer interactions between rain location and intensity. To effectively supervise the decoupled subnetworks during training, we propose a novel training strategy that imposes task-oriented supervision using the label learned via joint training. Extensive experiments on synthetic datasets and real-world rainy scenes demonstrate that the proposed method has great advantages over existing state-of-the-art methods
