• Abstract: Color-polarization imaging using a color-polarization filter array (CPFA) sensor captures both texture (color intensity) and physical (polarization) information of the scene in a single shot, enabling various applications in computer vision. However, the raw mosaic output from a CPFA sensor often suffers from severe noise and resolution loss, especially under low-light conditions. Existing methods generally focus on either denoising or demosaicking tasks, failing to capture the coupling between them and neglecting shared low-level features. In this paper, we propose a color-polarization denoising and demosaicking network (CPDDNet), which is a joint framework that performs noise removal and CPFA interpolation using a feature fusion module that retains the features from the CPFA raw data at both the denoising and the demosaicking stages. Experimental results demonstrate that CPDDNet significantly enhances image quality and polarization parameter accuracy, outperforming existing approaches on a real dataset.
