• Abstract: Exposure correction aims to enhance visual data suffering from improper exposures, which can greatly improve satisfactory visual effects. However, previous methods mainly focus on the image modality, and the video counterpart is less explored in the literature. Directly applying prior image-based methods to videos results in temporal incoherence with low visual quality. Through thorough investigation, we find that the development of relevant communities is limited by the absence of a benchmark dataset. Therefore, in this paper, we construct the first real-world paired video dataset, including both underexposure and overexposure dynamic scenes. To achieve spatial alignment, we utilize two DSLR cameras and a beam splitter to simultaneously capture improper and normal exposure videos. Additionally, we propose an end-to-end video exposure correction network, in which a dual-stream module is designed to deal with both underexposure and overexposure factors, enhancing the illumination based on Retinex theory. The extensive experiments based on various metrics and user studies demonstrate the significance of our dataset and the effectiveness of our method. The code and dataset are available at https://github.com/kravrolens/VECNet.

  We introduce a novel framework based on Mamba for Exposure Correction (ECMamba) with dual pathways, each dedicated to the restoration of reflectance and illumination map. Specifically, we derive the Retinex theory and we train a Retinex estimator capable of mapping inputs into two intermediary spaces. We develop a novel 2D Selective State-space layer guided by Retinex information (Retinex-SS2D) as the core operator of ECMM.

  This paper introduces a low-light video dataset, consisting of 40 scenes with various motion scenarios under two distinct low-lighting conditions. We provide fully registered ground truth data captured in normal light using a programmable motorized dolly and refine it via an image-based approach for pixel-wise frame alignment across different light levels. Our experimental results demonstrate the significance of fully registered video pairs for low-light video enhancement (LLVE) and the comprehensive evaluation shows that the models trained with our dataset outperform those trained with the existing datasets.

  We propose to utilize exposure bracketing photography to unify image restoration and enhancement tasks. Due to the difficulty in collecting real-world pairs, we suggest a solution that first pre-trains the model with synthetic paired data. In particular, a temporally modulated recurrent network (TMRNet) and self-supervised adaptation method are proposed.

Our method generalizes a detector from well-lit scenarios to low-light ones without requiring real low-light data.

  Enhancing images in low-light scenes is a challenging but widely concerned task in the computer vision. Main obstacle lies in the modeling conundrum from distribution discrepancy across different scenes. We introduce the bilevel paradigm to model the above latent correspondence. A bilevel learning framework is constructed to endow the scene-irrelevant generality of the encoder towards diverse scenes.

  In this work, we aim ambitiously for a more realistic and challenging task - joint video multi-frame and deblurring under unknown exposure time. We first adopt a variant of supervised contrastive learning to construct an exposure-aware representation from input blurred frames. We then build our video reconstruction network upon the exposure and motion representation by progressive exposure-adaptive convolution and motion refinement.
