Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for low-light image enhancement using denoising preprocessing with wavelet decomposition AI-based techniques to enhance image quality of low-light images. Subsampled images are created from a raw input image. A wavelet decomposition process is performed on each subimage to create multiple frequency domain subimages. Each frequency domain subimage is input into a corresponding neural network. The output of each corresponding network is input to an inverse wavelet module. The output of the inverse wavelet module is a denoised image that is input to an image signal processing pipeline, where additional processing may be performed on the denoised image.
