This paper presents a dual autoencoder network model based on the retinex theory to perform the low-light enhancement and noise reduction by combining the stacked and convolutional autoencoders. The proposed method first estimates the spatially smooth illumination component which is brighter than an input low-light image using a stacked autoencoder with a small number of hidden units. Next, we use a convolutional autoencoder which deals with 2-D image information to reduce the amplified noise in the brightness enhancement process. We analyzed and compared roles of the stacked and convolutional autoencoders with the constraint terms of the variational retinex model. In the experiments, we demonstrate the performance of the proposed algorithm by comparing with the state-of-the-art existing low-light and contrast enhancement methods. |
