Abstract

During rainy times, the impact of outdoor vision systems gets considerably decreased owing to the visibility barrier, distortion, and blurring instigated by raindrops. So, it is essential to eradicate it from the rainy images for ensuring the reliability of outdoor vision system. To achieve this, several rain removal studies have been performed in recent days. In this view, this paper presents a new Faster Region Convolutional Neural Network (Faster RCNN) with Optimal Densely Connected Networks (DenseNet)-based rain removal technique called FRCNN-ODN. The presented involves weighted mean filtering (WMF) is applied as a denoising technique, which helps to boost the quality of the input image. In addition, Faster RCNN technique is used for rain detection that comprises region proposal network (RPN) and Fast RCNN model. The RPN generates high quality region proposals that are exploited by the Faster RCNN to detect rain drops. Also, the DenseNet model is utilized as a baseline network to generate the feature map. Moreover, sparrow search optimization algorithm (SSOA) is applied to choose the hyperparameters of the DenseNet model namely learning rate, batch size, momentum, and weight decay. An extensive experimental validation process is performed to highlight the effectual outcome of the FRCNN-ODN model and investigated the results with respect to several dimensions. The FRCNN-ODN method produced a higher UIQI of 0.981 for the applied image 1. Furthermore, on the applied image 2, the FRCNN-ODN model achieved a maximum UIQI of 0.982. Furthermore, the FRCNN-ODN algorithm produced a higher UIQI of 0.998 on the applied image 3. The simulation outcome showcased the superior outcome of the FRCNN-ODN (Optimal Densely Connected Networks) model with existing methods in terms of distinct measures.
