在Keras中编写自定义MSE损失函数

Question

I'm trying to create an image denoising ConvNet in Keras and I want to create my own loss function. I want it to take a noisy image as an input and to get the noise as an output. This loss function is pretty much like a MSE loss but which will make my network learn to remove the clean image and not the noise from the input noisy image.

The loss function I want to implement with y the noisy image, x the clean image and R(y) the predicted image:

I've tried to make it by myself but I don't know how to make the loss access to my noisy images since it changes all the time.

def residual_loss(noisy_img):
  def loss(y_true, y_pred):
    return np.mean(np.square(y_pred - (noisy_img - y_true), axis=-1)
return loss

Basically, what I need to do is something like this :

input_img = Input(shape=(None,None,3))

c1 = Convolution2D(64, (3, 3))(input_img)
a1 = Activation('relu')(c1)

c2 = Convolution2D(64, (3, 3))(a1)
a2 = Activation('relu')(c2)

c3 = Convolution2D(64, (3, 3))(a2)
a3 = Activation('relu')(c3)

c4 = Convolution2D(64, (3, 3))(a3)
a4 = Activation('relu')(c4)

c5 = Convolution2D(3, (3, 3))(a4)
out = Activation('relu')(c5)

model = Model(input_img, out)
model.compile(optimizer='adam', loss=residual_loss(input_img))

But if I try this, I get :

 IndexError: tuple index out of range

What can I do ?

Answer 1

Since it's quite unusual to use the "input" in the loss function (it's not meant for that), I think it's worth saying:

It's not the role of the loss function to separate the noise. The loss function is just a measure of "how far from right you are".

It's your model that will separate things, and the results you expect from your model are y_true .

You should use a regular loss, with X_training = noisy images and Y_training = noises .

That said...

You can create a tensor for noisy_img outside the loss function and keep it stored. All operations inside a loss function must be tensor functions, so use the keras backend for that:

import keras.backend as K

noisy_img = K.variable(X_training) #you must do this for each bach

But you must take batch sizes into account, this var being outside the loss function will need you to fit just one batch per epoch .

def loss(y_true,y_pred):
    return K.mean(K.square(y_pred-y_true) - K.square(y_true-noisy_img))

Training one batch per epoch:

for batch in range(0,totalSamples,size):
    noisy_img = K.variable(X_training[batch:size])
    model.fit(X_training[batch:size],Y_training[batch:size], batch_size=size)

---

For using just a mean squared error , organize your data like this:

originalImages = loadYourImages() #without noises
Y_training = createRandomNoises() #without images

X_training = addNoiseToImages(originalImages,Y_training)

Now you just use a "mse", or any other built-in loss.

model.fit(X_training,Y_training,....)
