Abstract
Methods and systems for training and utilizing an artificial neural network (ANN) are provided. In an example method, a computing device could receive an input image comprising a plurality of channels and determine a saliency map for the input image. The computing device could also establish at least one of the plurality of channels as a training channel and at least some of the plurality of channels as one or more ground truth channels. Further, the computing device could train an ANN to predict one or more output channels from the one or more training channels, where the training involves computationally updating weights of the ANN based on a loss function that comprises a difference between the one or more output channels and the one or more ground truth channels, and where the difference is computationally biased based on values from the saliency map.
