DEANet: Decomposition Enhancement and Adjustment Network for Low-Light Image Enhancement

Poor illumination greatly affects the quality of obtained images.In this paper,a novel convolutional neural network named DEANet is proposed on the basis of Retinex for low-light image enhancement.DEANet combines the frequency and content information of images and is divided into three subnetworks:decomposition,enhancement,and adjustment networks,which perform image decomposition;denoising,contrast enhancement,and detail preservation;and image adjustment and generation,respectively.The model is trained on the public LOL dataset,and the experimental results show that it outperforms the existing state-of-the-art methods regarding visual effects and image quality.
