• Abstract: In modern smartphone cameras, the Image Signal Processor (ISP) is the core element that converts the RAW readings from the sensor into perceptually pleasant RGB images for the end users. The ISP is typically proprietary and handcrafted and consists of several blocks such as white balance, color correction, and tone mapping. Deep learning-based ISPs aim to transform RAW images into DSLR-like RGB images using deep neural networks. However, most learned ISPs are trained using patches (small regions) due to computational limitations. Such methods lack global context, which limits their efficacy on full-resolution images and harms their ability to capture global properties such as color constancy or illumination. First, we propose a novel module that can be integrated into any neural ISP to capture the global context information from the full RAW images. Second, we propose an efficient and simple neural ISP that utilizes our proposed module. Our model achieves state-of-the-art results on different benchmarks using diverse and real smartphone images.

  Conventional cameras capture image irradiance on a sensor and convert it to RGB images using an image signal processor (ISP) One can argue that since RAW images contain all the captured information, the conversion of RAW to RGB using an ISP is not necessary for visual computing. We propose a novel $rho$-Vision framework to perform high-level semantic understanding and low-level compression using RAW images.

  Traditional image signal processing (ISP) pipeline in a smartphone camera consists of several image processing steps performed sequentially to reconstruct a high quality sRGB image from the raw sensor data. Deep learning methods using convolutional neural networks (CNN) have become popular in solving many image-related tasks such as image denoising, contrast enhancement, super resolution, deblurring, etc. In this paper we propose DelNet - a single end-to-end deep learning model - to learn the entire ISP pipeline within reasonable complexity for smartphone deployment.
