Abstract
In computational color constancy, regressing illumination is one of the most common approaches to manifesting the original color appearance of an object in a real-life scene. However, this approach struggles with the challenge of accuracy arising from label vagueness, which is caused by unknown light sources, different reflection characteristics of scene objects, and extrinsic factors such as various types of imaging sensors. This article introduces a novel learning-based estimation model, an aggregate residual-in-residual transformation network (ARiRTN) architecture, by combining the inception model with the residual network and embedding residual networks into a residual network. The proposed model has two parts: the feature-map group and the ARiRTN operator. In the ARiRTN operator, all splits perform transformations simultaneously, and the resulting outputs are concatenated into their respective cardinal groups. Moreover, the proposed architecture is designed to develop multiple homogeneous branches for high cardinality, and an increased size of a set of transformations, which extends the network in width and in length. As a result of experimenting with the four most popular datasets in the field, the proposed architecture makes a compelling case that complexity increases accuracy. In other words, the combination of the two complicated networks, residual and inception networks, helps reduce overfitting, gradient distortion, and vanishing problems, and thereby contributes to improving accuracy. Our experimental results demonstrate this model’s outperformance over its most advanced counterparts in terms of accuracy, as well as the robustness of illuminant invariance and camera invariance.
