Abstract: Rain streak removal is a challenging and interesting task of image processing where the rain streaks will be removed from an image with rain streaks. In the literature, a large number of proposals are made where rain streak removal is considered as image enhancement or denoising. In this paper, a model of rain streak removal was proposed using sparse coding. First the regularization terms of the rain streak removal are defined. Then, a suitable dictionary of sub- dictionary with respect to specific patch of input rainy image are prepared. Finally, the Sparse code is applied on the patches of input image individually. The simulation results prove that the proposed technique performs very well even if the raindrop size is above a certain threshold.

Keywords: — deraining, rain streak removal, remote sensing, sparse coding, stripe removal
