Fundus image quality serves a crucial asset for medical diagnosis and applications. However, such images often suffer degradation during image acquisition where multiple types of degradation can occur in each image. Although recent deep learning based methods have shown promising results in image enhancement, they tend to focus on restoring one aspect of degradation and lack generalisability to multiple modes of degradation. We propose an adaptive image enhancement network that can simultaneously handle a mixture of different degradations. The main contribution of this work is to introduce our Multi-Degradation-Adaptive module which dynamically generates filters for different types of degradation. Moreover, we explore degradation representation learning and propose the degradation representation network and Multi-Degradation-Adaptive discriminator for our accompanying image enhancement network. Experimental results demonstrate that our method outperforms several existing state-of-the-art methods in fundus image enhancement. Code will be available at https://github.com/RuoyuGuo/MDA-Net.
