Deraining and Desnowing Algorithm on Adaptive Tolerance and Dual-tree Complex Wavelet Fusion

Abstract

Severe weather conditions such as rain and snow often reduce the visual perception quality of the video image system, the traditional methods of deraining and desnowing usually rarely consider adaptive parameters. In order to enhance the effect of video deraining and desnowing, this paper proposes a video deraining and desnowing algorithm based on adaptive tolerance and dual-tree complex wavelet. This algorithm can be widely used in security surveillance, military defense, biological monitoring, remote sensing and other fields. First, this paper introduces the main work of the adaptive tolerance method for the video of dynamic scenes. Second, the algorithm of dual-tree complex wavelet fusion is analyzed and introduced. Using principal component analysis fusion rules to process low-frequency sub-bands, the fusion rule of local energy matching is used to process the high-frequency sub-bands. Finally, this paper used various rain and snow videos to verify the validity and superiority of image reconstruction. Experimental results show that the algorithm has achieved good results in improving the image clarity and restoring the image details obscured by raindrops and snows.
