Although much progress has been made with existing deraining methods, the task of single image deraining remains challenging. In this paper, we first point out that existing Transformers lack sufficient ability to capture channel attention which restricted the ability of models in deraining. To improve the performance of deraining model, we propose a dual branch deraining network based on Transformer. One branch uses dense connections to connect Transformer modules which embed the attention of a composite channel. This branch captures channel attention more finely to learn the representation of rain streaks features. The other branch first obtains features at different scales by gradually expanding the receptive field, then uses these features to obtain attention for regional features, and finally uses the attention to guide the model to focus on areas of high rain streaks density and large scales. By fusing these two branches, the model is able to capture channel attention more finely and to focus on regions of high rain streaks density and large scales. The extensive experimental results on synthetic and real datasets demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms most advanced deraining methods.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/jifs-220055","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,24]],"date-time":"2022-05-24T11:52:28Z","timestamp":1653393148000},"page":"5109-5123","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["DBSwin:
