Abstract

Image will be polluted by different kinds of noise in the process of acquisition, compression, and transmission, resulting in interference to subsequent image segmentation, feature extraction and other processing. With the development of deep convolutional neural network (DCNN), quite a few effective DCNNs have been designed and have made remarkable progress in image denoising. Gradient descent algorithm is generally used for DCNN training. However, due to the complex mathematical properties of the high-dimensional and non-convex loss optimization surface, there are often many local optimal points, saddle points or large range of gradient gentle regions, which affects training effect of the gradient descent algorithm. Although intelligent algorithms such as evolutionary algorithm have global optimization capability, they often have large computing resource requirements and slow convergence speed, which limit its application in DCNN training which is a high-dimensional optimization problem. Beetle antennae search (BAS) algorithm is a simple and efficient bionic intelligent optimization algorithm, which has global search ability. In this paper, the gradient descent method and BAS method are combined as a hybrid method for deep auto-encoder (DAE) denoising network training. Experimental results show that the proposed method accelerates the training speed of the DAE denoising network, reduces the blurring of edge details and improves the visual effect of the restored image.
