Abstract

In an embodiment, a method includes receiving a low-light digital image; generating, by at least one processor, a resulting digital image by processing the low-light digital image with an encoder-decoder neural network comprising a plurality of convolutional layers classified into a downsampling stage and an upscaling stage, and a multi-scale context aggregating block configured to aggregate multi-scale context information of the low-light digital image and employed between the downsampling stage and the upscaling stage; and outputting, by the at least one processor, the resulting digital image to an output device.
