• Abstract: With the goal of tuning up the brightness, low-light image enhancement enjoys numerous applications, such as surveillance, remote sensing and computational photography. Images captured under low-light conditions often suffer from poor visibility and blur. Solely brightening the dark regions will inevitably amplify the blur, thus may lead to detail loss. In this paper, we propose a simple yet effective two-stream framework named NEID to tune up the brightness and enhance the details simultaneously without introducing many computational costs. Precisely, the proposed method consists of three parts: Light Enhancement (LE), Detail Refinement (DR) and Feature Fusing (FF) module, which can aggregate composite features oriented to multiple tasks based on channel attention mechanism. Extensive experiments conducted on several benchmark datasets demonstrate the efficacy of our method and its superiority over state-of-the-art methods.

  Low-light image enhancement aims to improve the perception of images collected in dim environments. Existing methods cannot adaptively extract the differentiated luminance information, which will easily cause over-exposure and under-exposure. We propose a multi-scale attention Transformer named MSATr, which sufficiently extracts local and global features for light balance to improve the visual quality.

  We propose to leverage the pre-trained latent diffusion model to perform the neural ISP for enhancing extremely low-light images. Specifically, to tailor the pre-trained latent diffusion model to operate on the RAW domain, we train a set of lightweight taming modules. We observe different roles of UNet denoising and decoder reconstruction in the latent diffusion model, which inspires us to decompose the low-light image enhancement task into latent-space low-frequency content generation and decoding-phase high-frequency detail maintenance.

Our proposed method has surpassed the SOTA by 0.95dB in PSNR on LOL1000 dataset and 3.18% in mAP on ExDark dataset.
