• Abstract: Social media images are generally transformed by filtering to obtain aesthetically more pleasing appearances. However, CNNs generally fail to interpret both the image and its filtered version as the same in the visual analysis of social media images. We introduce Instagram Filter Removal Network (IFRNet) to mitigate the effects of image filters for social media analysis applications. To achieve this, we assume any filter applied to an image substantially injects a piece of additional style information to it, and we consider this problem as a reverse style transfer problem. The visual effects of filtering can be directly removed by adaptively normalizing external style information in each level of the encoder. Experiments demonstrate that IFRNet outperforms all compared methods in quantitative and qualitative comparisons, and has the ability to remove the visual effects to a great extent. Additionally, we present the filter classification performance of our proposed model, and analyze the dominant color estimation on the images unfiltered by all compared methods.

  interpretable image enhancement is a technique that enhances image quality by adjusting filter parameters with easily understandable names such as "Exposure" and "Contrast" We introduce an image-adaptive neural implicit lookup table, which uses a multilayer perceptron to implicitly define the transformation from input feature space to output color space. We evaluate visual impressions of enhancement results, such as exposure and contrast, using a vision and language model along with guiding prompts.

  Fun selfie filters have come into tremendous mainstream use affecting the functioning of facial biometric systems. Current AR-based filters and filters which distort facial key points are in vogue recently and make the faces highly unrecognizable even to the naked eye. To mitigate these limitations, we aim to perform a holistic impact analysis of the latest filters and propose an user recognition model with the filtered images.

  The goal of this paper is guided image filtering, which emphasizes the importance of structure transfer during filtering. We propose a new and simplified formulation of the guided filter inspired by unsharp masking. Our formulation enjoys a filtering prior to a low-pass filter and enables explicit structure transfer by estimating a single coefficient.

We propose a content-adaptive smoothing filtering followed by dithered quantization, as a post-processing module. Experimental results show that our proposed debanding filter outperforms state-of-the-art false contour removing algorithms both visually and quantitatively.

• Recognizing Instagram Filtered Images with Feature De-stylization [81.38905784617089]
  This paper presents a study on how popular pretrained models are affected by commonly used Instagram filters. Our analysis suggests that simple structure preserving filters which only alter the global appearance of an image can lead to large differences in the convolutional feature space. We introduce a lightweight de-stylization module that predicts parameters used for scaling and shifting feature maps to "undo" the changes incurred by filters.
