Seamlessly moving objects within a scene is a common requirement for image editing, but it is still a challenge for existing editing methods. Especially for real-world images, the occlusion situation further increases the difficulty. The main difficulty is that the occluded portion needs to be compl…
Diffusion models have achieved significant progress in image generation and the pre-trained Stable Diffusion (SD) models are helpful for image deblurring by providing clear image priors. However, directly using a blurry image or a pre-deblurred one as a conditional control for SD will either hinder…
Large-scale pre-trained diffusion models are becoming increasingly popular in solving the Real-World Image Super-Resolution (Real-ISR) problem because of their rich generative priors. The recent development of diffusion transformer (DiT) has witnessed overwhelming performance over the traditional UN…
Image retouching aims to enhance the visual quality of photos. Considering the different aesthetic preferences of users, the target of retouching is subjective. However, current retouching methods mostly adopt deterministic models, which not only neglects the style diversity in the expert-retouched…
Balancing helpfulness and safety (harmlessness) is a critical challenge in aligning large language models (LLMs). Current approaches often decouple these two objectives, training separate preference models for helpfulness and safety, while framing safety as a constraint within a constrained Markov D…
Events provide High Dynamic Range (HDR) intensity change which can guide Low Dynamic Range (LDR) image for HDR reconstruction. However, events only provide temporal intensity differences and it is still ill-posed in over-/under-exposed areas due to missing initial reference brightness and color info…
Image-based 3D generation has vast applications in robotics and gaming, where high-quality, diverse outputs and consistent 3D representations are crucial. However, existing methods have limitations: 3D diffusion models are limited by dataset scarcity and the absence of strong pre-trained priors, whi…
Recovering degraded low-resolution text images is challenging especially for Chinese text images with complex strokes and severe degradation in real-world scenarios. Ensuring both text fidelity and style realness is crucial for high-quality text image super-resolution. Recently diffusion models have…
Continuous-time video frame interpolation is a fundamental technique in computer vision for its flexibility in synthesizing motion trajectories and novel video frames at arbitrary intermediate time steps. Yet, how to infer accurate intermediate motion and synthesize high-quality video frames are two…
"We present deep Bayesian video frame interpolation, a novel approach for upsampling a low frame-rate video temporally to its higher frame-rate counterpart. Our approach learns posterior distributions of optical flows and frames to be interpolated, which is optimized via learned gradient descent for…
Recently, video deblurring has attracted considerable research attention, and several works suggest that events at high time rate can benefit deblurring. In this paper, we develop a principled framework D2Nets for video deblurring to exploit non-consecutively blurry frames, and propose a flexible ev…
Event-based video frame interpolation is promising as event cameras capture dense motion signals that can greatly facilitate motion-aware synthesis. However, training existing frameworks for this task requires high frame-rate videos with synchronized events, posing challenges to collect real trainin…
Recovering sharp video sequence from a motion-blurred image is highly ill-posed due to the significant loss of motion information in the blurring process. For event-based cameras, however, fast motion can be captured as events at high frame rate, raising new opportunities to exploring effective solu…
Event-based sensors, which have a response if the change of pixel intensity exceeds a triggering threshold, can capture high-speed motion with microsecond accuracy. Assisted by an event camera, we can generate high frame-rate sharp videos from low frame-rate blurry ones captured by an intensity came…
Imaging in the dark environment is important for many real-world applications like video surveillance. Recently, the development of Event Cameras raises promising directions in solving this task thanks to its High Dynamic Range (HDR) and low requirement of computational sources. However, such camera…
This paper addresses stereoscopic view synthesis from a single image. Various recent works solve this task by reorganizing pixels from the input view to reconstruct the target one in a stereo setup. However, purely depending on such photometric-based reconstruction process, the network may produce s…
Obtaining an appropriate dictionary is the key point when sparse representation is applied to computer vision or image processing problems such as image restoration. It is expected that preserving data structure during sparse coding and dictionary learning can enhance the recovery performance. Howev…
We introduce a novel method of video matting via sparse and low-rank representation. Previous matting methods [10, 9] introduced a nonlocal prior to estimate the alpha matte and have achieved impressive results on some data. However, on one hand, searching inadequate or excessive samples may miss go…
