Video monitoring of traffic is useful for traffic management and control, traffic counting, and traffic law enforcement. However, traffic monitoring during inclement weather such as rain is a challenging task because video quality is corrupted by streaks of falling rain on the video image, and this hinders reliable characterization not only of the road environment but also of road-user behavior during such adverse weather events. This study proposes a two-stage self-supervised learning method to remove rain streaks in traffic videos. The first and second stages address intra- and inter-frame noise, respectively. The results indicated that the model exhibits satisfactory performance in terms of the image visual quality and the Peak Signal-Noise Ratio value.
