LMQFormer: A Laplace-Prior-Guided Mask Query Transformer for Lightweight Snow Removal. (arXiv:2210.04787v3 [cs.CV] UPDATED)

Snow removal aims to locate snow areas and recover clean images without
repairing traces. Unlike the regularity and semitransparency of rain, snow with
various patterns and degradations seriously occludes the background. As a
result, the state-of-the-art snow removal methods usually retains a large
parameter size. In this paper, we propose a lightweight but high-efficient snow
removal network called Laplace Mask Query Transformer (LMQFormer). Firstly, we
present a Laplace-VQVAE to generate a coarse mask as prior knowledge of snow.
