用真实天空图像生成水下退化数据,解决水下图像增强缺乏真实标签问题。

A Generative Data Framework with Authentic Supervision for Underwater Image Restoration and Enhancement

  • 用空中自然图像生成水下退化版本,提供真实参考标签。
  • 构建涵盖6类退化的大型合成数据集,提升颜色还原与泛化能力。
  • 适用于水下视觉任务研究者,尤其关注数据质量的团队。

水下图像恢复与增强对纠正色彩失真、还原图像细节至关重要,是后续水下视觉任务的基础。然而当前深度学习方法受限于高质量成对数据集稀缺——由于难以获取水下场景的纯净参考图像,现有基准多依赖增强算法手动选择的结果,导致参考图色彩不一致,缺乏全局真实性,限制了模型在色彩恢复、图像增强及泛化上的表现。为此,我们提出以空中自然图像作为明确参考目标,通过无配对图像到图像转换将其生成水下退化版本,构建提供真实监督信号的合成数据集。具体而言,建立基于无配对图像翻译的生成数据框架,生成覆盖6种典型水下退化类型的大型数据集。该框架生成具备精确真实标签的合成数据,有助于学习从退化水下图像到原始场景外观的准确映射。在6种代表性网络架构和3个独立测试集上进行的大量定量与定性实验表明,基于本合成数据训练的模型,在色彩恢复与泛化性能上达到或优于现有基准。本研究为水下图像恢复与增强提供了可靠且可扩展的数据驱动解决方案。生成数据集已公开:https://github.com/yftian2025/SynUIEDatasets.git。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Underwater image restoration and enhancement are crucial for correcting color distortion and restoring image details, thereby establishing a fundamental basis for subsequent underwater visual tasks. However, current deep learning methodologies in this area are frequently constrained by the scarcity of high-quality paired datasets. Since it is difficult to obtain pristine reference labels in underwater scenes, existing benchmarks often rely on manually selected results from enhancement algorithms, providing debatable reference images that lack globally consistent color and authentic supervision. This limits the model's capabilities in color restoration, image enhancement, and generalization. To overcome this limitation, we propose using in-air natural images as unambiguous reference targets and translating them into underwater-degraded versions, thereby constructing synthetic datasets that provide authentic supervision signals for model learning. Specifically, we establish a generative data framework based on unpaired image-to-image translation, producing a large-scale dataset that covers 6 representative underwater degradation types. The framework constructs synthetic datasets with precise ground-truth labels, which facilitate the learning of an accurate mapping from degraded underwater images to their pristine scene appearances. Extensive quantitative and qualitative experiments across 6 representative network architectures and 3 independent test sets show that models trained on our synthetic data achieve comparable or superior color restoration and generalization performance to those trained on existing benchmarks. This research provides a reliable and scalable data-driven solution for underwater image restoration and enhancement. The generated dataset is publicly available at: https://github.com/yftian2025/SynUIEDatasets.git.
