Blurring-Effect-Free CNN Network of Structural Edge for Focus Stacking

TL;DR: This work proposes a novel convolutional neural network (BEF-CNN) to restore blurring-effect-free image patches in order to enhance all-in-focus performance and is the first work to utilize CNN to generate all- in-focus image directly instead of pixel-to-pixel correspondence with depthmap.

Multi-level receptive field feature reuse for multi-focus image fusion

TL;DR: An end-to-end deep network, which includes an encoder and a decoder, which is a pseudo-Siamese network that extracts the same and different feature sets by using the features of double encoder, then reuses the shallow features and finally forms the coding.

ImageNet Classification with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks

TL;DR: The state-of-the-art performance of CNNs was achieved by Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) as discussed by the authors, which consists of five convolutional layers, some of which are followed by max-pooling layers, and three fully-connected layers with a final 1000-way softmax.
