Abstract

In recent years, the analysis of natural image has made great progress while the image of the intrinsic component analysis can solve many computer vision problems, such as the image shadow detection and removal. This paper presents the novel model, which integrates the feature fusion and the multiple dictionary learning. Traditional model can hardly handle the challenge of reserving the removal accuracy while keeping the low time consuming. Inspire by the compressive sensing theory, traditional single dictionary scenario is extended to the multiple condition. The human visual system is more sensitive to the high frequency part of the image, and the high frequency part expresses most of the semantic information of the image. At the same time, the high frequency characteristic of the high and low resolution image is adopted in the dictionary training, which can effectively recover the loss in the high resolution image with high frequency information. This paper presents the integration of compressive sensing model with feature extraction to construct the two-stage methodology. Therefore, the feature fusion algorithm is applied to the dictionary training procedure to finalize the robust model. Simulation results proves the effectiveness of the model, which outperforms compared with the other state-of-the-art algorithms.
