LLNet: A deep autoencoder approach to natural low-light image enhancement

作者:

Highlights:

• Novel application of stacked sparse denoising autoencoder enhances low-light images.

• Simultaneous learning of contrast-enhancement and denoising (LLNet).

• Sequential learning of contrast-enhancement and denoising (Staged LLNet).

• Synthetically trained model evaluated on natural low-light images.

• Learned features visualized to gain insights about the model.
