Abstract:
A method, apparatus and computer program product for removing weather elements, such as rain, from images are provided. In this regard, imagery from self-driving cars or video surveillance may be blurred by weather elements. The weather elements may be removed by utilizing pure weather element images. The pure weather element images may be processed by machine learning techniques to model pure weather element data, and generate a pure weather element dictionary. Imagery including both weather elements and background scenery may then be processed accordingly, and the weather elements removed based on the learned pure weather element dictionary. Resulting weather-free images may then be generated.
