用数学保证曝光矫正的单调性,实现一次成像的精准亮度修复。
AutoLumNet: Monotone Optimal Transport for Single-Shot Exposure Correction

- 将曝光矫正分解为全局单调曲线与局部残差,构造严格单调的参数化形式。
- 在5个基准上达到最优的PSNR和SSIM,每帧仅需11.2毫秒,零样本泛化至低光场景。
- 首次融合单调性保障、最优传输理论与局部自适应,适合图像修复与摄影算法研究者。
单次曝光矫正旨在将任意退化的图像(欠曝、过曝或混合)映射为良好曝光的输出。本文提出AutoLumNet,将该任务分解为全局单调色调曲线与有界局部残差,其中全局部分通过正密度的归一化累积积分参数化,天然保证严格单调性。证明该参数化可无条件保持所有像素及空间极值的亮度顺序,并在有效色调校正空间中稠密,包含输入到任意目标亮度分布的1维最优传输映射。训练使用可微分排序样本Wasserstein-2损失,驱动曲线逼近最优传输解。局部无法处理的阴影、色偏、截断区域等问题由双分支凸融合的有界残差解码器处理,并给出局部顺序保持的显式充分条件。在五个基准(MSEC、SICE、LCDP、LOL-v1、LOL-v2-real)上的实验表明,AutoLumNet在欠曝与过曝场景下均达领先性能,每帧仅需11.2毫秒,且无需再训练即可零样本泛化至纯低光数据集。据我们所知,这是首个在单一可训练架构中统一结构单调性、最优传输最优性与有界局部适应性的曝光矫正方法。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Single-shot exposure correction aims to map an arbitrarily degraded image---whether under-exposed, over-exposed, or a spatial mixture of both---to a well-exposed output from a single capture. We present AutoLumNet, a framework that decomposes this task into a global monotone tone curve and a bounded local residual, making the global component the locus of formal guarantees. The tone curve is parameterized as the normalized cumulative integral of a strictly positive density, ensuring strict monotonicity by construction rather than by penalty. We prove that this parameterization (i)~preserves the pairwise luminance ordering of all pixels and all spatial extrema unconditionally, and (ii)~is dense in the space of valid tone corrections, containing the one-dimensional optimal-transport map from the input to any target luminance distribution. A differentiable sorted-sample Wasserstein-2 objective drives the learned curve toward the OT optimum during training. Spatially varying effects that the global map provably cannot address---local shading, chrominance shifts, and clipped-region restoration---are handled by a bounded residual decoder with dual-branch convex fusion, for which we provide an explicit sufficient condition for local order preservation. Experiments on five benchmarks (MSEC, SICE, LCDP, LOL-v1, LOL-v2-real) show that AutoLumNet achieves state-of-the-art PSNR and SSIM across both under- and over-exposure regimes at 11.2\,ms per frame, and generalizes zero-shot to pure low-light benchmarks without retraining. To our knowledge, AutoLumNet is the first exposure-correction method to unite structural monotonicity, optimal-transport optimality, and bounded local adaptivity within a single trainable architecture.
