针对复杂光照下图像增强难题,提出递归感知亮度的增强框架。
Brightness Perceiving for Recursive Low-Light Image Enhancement
- 分两路并行网络:自适应增强对比度与纹理,感知亮度分布控制递归次数。
- 在新构建数据集上,PSNR较现有最优方法提升0.9 dB。
- 适合需要处理高动态范围低光图像的场景,如夜间监控、自动驾驶。
由于真实低光场景动态范围广,成像存在显著对比度退化和细节模糊差异,现有端到端方法难以将低光图像恢复至正常曝光。为此,本文将低光图像增强分解为递归增强任务,提出基于亮度感知的递归增强框架。该框架包含两个并行子网络:自适应对比度与纹理增强网络(ACT-Net)和亮度感知网络(BP-Net)。ACT-Net在亮度调整分支与梯度调整分支引导下,自适应增强图像对比度与细节;为适应不同亮度条件,BP-Net通过探索图像亮度分布特性,控制ACT-Net的递归增强次数。为协调两者,设计新型无监督训练策略。为验证有效性,构建了融合三个低光数据集的新数据集,覆盖更广亮度范围。相比十一个代表性方法,本方法在六个参考与无参考指标上达到新SOTA,PSNR提升0.9 dB。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Due to the wide dynamic range in real low-light scenes, there will be large differences in the degree of contrast degradation and detail blurring of captured images, making it difficult for existing end-to-end methods to enhance low-light images to normal exposure. To address the above issue, we decompose low-light image enhancement into a recursive enhancement task and propose a brightness-perceiving-based recursive enhancement framework for high dynamic range low-light image enhancement. Specifically, our recursive enhancement framework consists of two parallel sub-networks: Adaptive Contrast and Texture enhancement network (ACT-Net) and Brightness Perception network (BP-Net). The ACT-Net is proposed to adaptively enhance image contrast and details under the guidance of the brightness adjustment branch and gradient adjustment branch, which are proposed to perceive the degradation degree of contrast and details in low-light images. To adaptively enhance images captured under different brightness levels, BP-Net is proposed to control the recursive enhancement times of ACT-Net by exploring the image brightness distribution properties. Finally, in order to coordinate ACT-Net and BP-Net, we design a novel unsupervised training strategy to facilitate the training procedure. To further validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we construct a new dataset with a broader brightness distribution by mixing three low-light datasets. Compared with eleven existing representative methods, the proposed method achieves new SOTA performance on six reference and no reference metrics. Specifically, the proposed method improves the PSNR by 0.9 dB compared to the existing SOTA method.
