• Abstract: Current deep learning-based low-light image enhancement methods often struggle with high-resolution images, and fail to meet the practical demands of visual perception across diverse and unseen scenarios. In this paper, we introduce a novel approach termed CoLIE, which redefines the enhancement process through mapping the 2D coordinates of an underexposed image to its illumination component, conditioned on local context. We propose a reconstruction of enhanced-light images within the HSV space utilizing an implicit neural function combined with an embedded guided filter, thereby significantly reducing computational overhead. Moreover, we introduce a single image-based training loss function to enhance the model's adaptability to various scenes, further enhancing its practical applicability. Through rigorous evaluations, we analyze the properties of our proposed framework, demonstrating its superiority in both image quality and scene adaptability. Furthermore, our evaluation extends to applications in downstream tasks within low-light scenarios, underscoring the practical utility of CoLIE.

  Low-light conditions have an adverse impact on machine cognition, limiting the performance of computer vision systems in real life. We propose to improve the existing zero-reference low-light enhancement by leveraging the CLIP model to capture image prior and for semantic guidance. We experimentally show, that the proposed prior and semantic guidance help to improve the overall image contrast and hue, as well as improve background-foreground discrimination.

  This paper presents the deep compensation network unfolding (DCUNet) for restoring light field (LF) images captured under low-light conditions. The framework uses the intermediate enhanced result to estimate the illumination map, which is then employed in the unfolding process to produce a new enhanced result. To properly leverage the unique characteristics of LF images, this paper proposes a pseudo-explicit feature interaction module.
