Abstract

An image processing method, an image processing device, a training method of a neural network, an image processing method based on a combined neural network model, a constructing method of a combined neural network model, a neural network processor, and a storage medium are provided. The image processing method includes: obtaining, based on an input image, initial feature images of N stages with resolutions from high to low, where N is a positive integer and N>2, performing, based on initial feature images of second to N-th stages, cyclic scaling processing on an initial feature image of a first stage, to obtain an intermediate feature image; and preforming merging processing on the intermediate feature image to obtain an output image. The cyclic scaling processing includes hierarchically-nested scaling processing of N−1 stages, and scaling processing of each stage includes down-sampling processing, concatenating processing, up-sampling processing, and residual link addition processing.
