Moir\'eNet: A Compact Dual-Domain Network for Image Demoir\'eing

Shuwei Guo, Simin Luan, Yan Ke, Zeyd Boukhers, John See, Cong Yang

Moir\'e patterns arise from spectral aliasing between display pixel lattices and camera sensor grids, manifesting as anisotropic, multi-scale artifacts that pose significant challenges for digital image demoir\'eing. We propose Moir\'eNet, a convolutional neural U-Net-based framework that synergistically integrates frequency and spatial domain features for effective artifact removal. Moir\'eNet introduces two key components: a Directional Frequency-Spatial Encoder (DFSE) that discerns moir\'e orientation via directional difference convolution, and a Frequency-Spatial Adaptive Selector (FSAS) that enables precise, feature-adaptive suppression. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Moir\'eNet achieves state-of-the-art performance on public and actively used datasets while being highly parameter-efficient. With only 5.513M parameters, representing a 48% reduction compared to ESDNet-L, Moir\'eNet combines superior restoration quality with parameter efficiency, making it well-suited for resource-constrained applications including smartphone photography, industrial imaging, and augmented reality.
