Dataset

I used the BDS500 dataset for training, you can download it here: http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/Research/Projects/CS/vision/grouping/BSR/BSR_bsds500.tgz It contains 500 RGB images, 400 for training and 100 for testing.

Data preprocessing and noise generation

Before training, you have to rescale the images to 180x180 and adding noise to them. The folder structure is supposed to be:

./data/train/original  for the 180x180 original train images
./data/train/noisy  for the 180x180 noisy train images
./data/test/original  for the 180x180 original test images
./data/test/noisy  for the 180x180 noisy test images

You need the original files for testing just to calculate the PSNR. You can denoise without original files: just put the noisy files also in ./data/test/original .

Train

$ python main.py
(note: You can add command line arguments according to the source code, for example
    $ python main.py --batch_size 64 )

Test

$ python main.py --phase test
