Thunder: Thumbnail based Fast Lightweight Image Denoising Network
To achieve promising results on removing noise from real-world images, most of existing denoising networks are formulated with complex network structure, making them impractical for deployment. Some attempts focused on reducing the number of filters and feature channels but suffered from large performance loss, and a more practical and lightweight denoising network with fast inference speed is of high demand. To this end, a \textbf{Thu}mb\textbf{n}ail based \textbf{D}\textbf{e}noising Netwo\textbf{r}k dubbed Thunder, is proposed and implemented as a lightweight structure for fast restoration without comprising the denoising capabilities. Specifically, the Thunder model contains two newly-established modules: (1) a wavelet-based Thumbnail Subspace Encoder (TSE) which can leverage sub-bands correlation to provide an approximate thumbnail based on the low-frequent feature; (2) a Subspace Projection based Refine Module (SPR) which can restore the details for thumbnail progressively based on the subspace projection approach. Extensive experiments have been carried out on two real-world denoising benchmarks, demonstrating that the proposed Thunder outperforms the existing lightweight models and achieves competitive performance on PSNR and SSIM when compared with the complex designs.
