• Abstract: Night time semantic segmentation is a crucial task in computer vision, focusing on accurately classifying and segmenting objects in low-light conditions. Unlike daytime techniques, which often perform worse in nighttime scenes, it is essential for autonomous driving due to insufficient lighting, low illumination, dynamic lighting, shadow effects, and reduced contrast. We propose RHRSegNet, implementing a relighting model over a High-Resolution Network for semantic segmentation. RHRSegNet implements residual convolutional feature learning to handle complex lighting conditions. Our model then feeds the lightened scene feature maps into a high-resolution network for scene segmentation. The network consists of a convolutional producing feature maps with varying resolutions, achieving different levels of resolution through down-sampling and up-sampling. Large nighttime datasets are used for training and evaluation, such as NightCity, City-Scape, and Dark-Zurich datasets. Our proposed model increases the HRnet segmentation performance by 5% in low-light or nighttime images.

  We propose a novel end-to-end optimized approach, named NightFormer, tailored for night-time semantic segmentation. Specifically, we design a pixel-level texture enhancement module to acquire texture-aware features hierarchically with phase enhancement and amplified attention. Our proposed method performs favorably against state-of-the-art night-time semantic segmentation methods.

  Low-light conditions not only hamper human visual experience but also degrade the model's performance on downstream vision tasks.

We propose a similarity min-max paradigm that considers them under a unified framework.

  Nighttime surveillance suffers from degradation due to poor illumination and arduous human annotations. Existing methods rely on multi-spectral images to perceive objects in the dark, which are troubled by low resolution and color absence. We argue that the ultimate solution for nighttime surveillance is night-to-day translation, or Night2Day. This paper contributes a new surveillance dataset called NightSuR. It includes six scenes to support the study on nighttime surveillance.

  We show how to use a combination of three techniques to allow the existing photometric losses to work for both day and nighttime images. First, we introduce a per-pixel neural intensity transformation to compensate for the light changes that occur between successive frames. Second, we predict a per-pixel residual flow map that we use to correct the reprojection correspondences induced by the estimated ego-motion and depth.
