AIM 2019 Challenge on Image Demoireing: Dataset and Study

Abstract: This paper introduces a novel dataset, called LCDMoire, which was created for the first-ever image demoireing challenge that was part of the Advances in Image Manipulation (AIM) workshop, held in conjunction with ICCV 2019. The dataset comprises 10,200 synthetically generated image pairs (consisting of an image degraded by moire and a clean ground truth image). In addition to describing the dataset and its creation, this paper also reviews the challenge tracks, competition, and results, the latter summarizing the current state-of-the-art on this dataset.
