Rain streaks degrade the quality of image. Many methods have been proposed to solve single image rain streaks removal recently. However, some methods over-smooth the recovered image. A deep network architecture called Multi-Scale Feature Attention Network (MSFA-Net) is proposed in this paper. We propose a novel basic block structure to exploit the image features, which consists of multi-scale residual learning block and feature attention block. Several basic block structures with a local residual learning compose a group architecture. The outputs of each group architecture are concatenated for final multi-scale feature fusion. Then the features are fed into feature attention block and reconstruction module. Finally, a global residual learning module restore the clean image. Besides, the feature attention block combines channel attention with spatial attention. The proposed MSFA-Net removes the rain streaks which study a non-linear mapping relationship between the rainy and clean image from synthesized dataset. Through comparing with other state-of-the-art algorithms, our algorithm performs better for both synthesized rainy image data and real rainy image data.
