A state-of-the-art, simple and fast network for Deep Video Denoising which uses no motion compensation

Previous deep video denoising algorithm: DVDnet

This source code provides a PyTorch implementation of FastDVDnet image denoising, as in Tassano, Matias and Delon, Julie and Veit, Thomas. "FastDVDnet: Towards Real-Time Video Denoising Without Explicit Motion Estimation", arXiv preprint arXiv:1907.01361 (2019).

Coming soon

The code as is runs in Python +3.6 with the following dependencies:

• PyTorch v1.0.0
• NVIDIA DALI
• scikit-image
• numpy
• OpenCV
• tensorboardX

If you want to denoise an image sequence using the pretrained model you can execute

test_fastdvdnet.py \
	--test_path <path_to_input_sequence> \
	--noise_sigma 30 \
	--save_path results

NOTES

• The image sequence should be stored under <path_to_input_sequence>
• The model has been trained for values of noise in [5, 55]
• run with --no_gpu to run on CPU instead of GPU
• run with --save_noisy to save noisy frames
• set max_num_fr_per_seq to set the max number of frames to load per sequence
• run with --help to see details on all input parameters

If you want to train your own models you can execute

train_fastdvdnet.py \
	--trainset_dir <path_to_input_mp4s> \
	--valset_dir <path_to_val_sequences> \
	--log_dir logs

NOTES

• As the dataloader in based on the DALI library, the training sequences must be provided as mp4 files, all under <path_to_input_mp4s>
• The validation sequences must be stored as image sequences in individual folders under <path_to_val_sequences>
• run with --help to see details on all input parameters
