Pretrained Neural Network Models for Guo 2018 study - TensorFlow format

The presence of raindrop induced image distortion has a significant negative impact on the performance of a wide range of all-weather visual sensing applications including within the increasingly important contexts of visual surveillance and vehicle autonomy. A key part of this problem is robust raindrop detection such that the potential for performance degradation in effected image regions can be identified. Here we address the problem of raindrop detection in colour video imagery by considering three varying region proposal approaches with secondary classification via a number of novel convolutional neural network architecture variants. This is verified over an extensive dataset with in-frame raindrop annotation to achieve maximal 0.95 detection accuracy with minimal false positives compared to prior work. Our approach is evaluated under a range of environmental conditions typical of all-weather automotive visual sensing applications. | Cited in: n The Impact Of Varying Region Proposal Strategies For Raindrop Detection And Classification Using Convolutional Neural Networks (T.
