Specular removal of monochrome image using polarization and deep learning

We have proposed a method to remove specular reflection from a single polarization image. Most existing methods use color information for specular removal, however, those methods can neither be applied to monochrome images nor achromatic objects. To overcome this problem, we use polarization for specular removal. Most methods not only use polarization camera but also use polarized light, while we use polarization camera and unpolarized light. In addition to polarization, we also use a deep neural network to stably remove specular reflection in a grayscale image.
