Rain Removal From Still Images Using L0 Gradient Minimization Technique

A Matlab code to remove rain

A Matlab code is written to remove rain successfully using Lo gradient minimization technique.
How to run??
1. Unzip and place the folder 'Rain Pixel' in the path of Matlab
2. Run Rain_Removal_GUI.m
3. Select an image from 'Bangalore Rain' folder. Next click on Remove Rain button & observe the results.
4. Next run Verify.m to verify the proposed technique using HOG+SVM approach
The code is based on my paper: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Manu_Bn2/publication/295235499_Rain_Removal_From_Still_Images_Using_L0_Gradient_Minimization_Technique/links/56c847aa08ae96cdd06acb6f.pdf

Note: The method of rain detection is only approximate and is different than the one mentioned in the paper. Nevertheless gives highly satisfactory results.

Comments & suggestions are always welcome
