Existing low-light image enhancement (LIE) methods have achieved noteworthy success in solving synthetic distortions, yet they often fall short in practical applications. The limitations arise from two inherent challenges in real-world LIE: 1) the collection of distorted/clean image pairs is often i…
Low-light image enhancement (LIE) aims at precisely and efficiently recovering an image degraded in poor illumination environments. Recent advanced LIE techniques are using deep neural networks, which require lots of low-normal light image pairs, network parameters, and computational resources. As a…
Light field microscopy (LFM) has gained significant attention due to its ability to capture snapshot-based, large-scale 3D fluorescence images. However, existing LFM reconstruction algorithms are highly sensitive to sensor noise or require hard-to-get ground-truth annotated data for training. To add…
Pan-sharpening aims to leverage the high-frequency signal of the panchromatic (PAN) image to enhance the resolution of its corresponding multi-spectral (MS) image. However, deep neural networks (DNNs) tend to prioritize learning the low-frequency components during the training process, which limits…
Low-light Image Enhancement (LIE) aims at improving contrast and restoring details for images captured in low-light conditions. Most of the previous LIE algorithms adjust illumination using a single input image with several handcrafted priors. Those solutions, however, often fail in revealing image…
Underwater object segmentation is one of the key technologies in the fields of marine biology research and autonomous underwater vehicles. The challenges of underwater object segmentation originate from two aspects, 1) the complex underwater environment and 2) the camouflage characteristics of marin…
"A main challenge faced in the deep learning-based Underwater Image Enhancement (UIE) is that the ground truth high-quality image is unavailable. Most of the existing methods first generate approximate reference maps and then train an enhancement network with certainty. This kind of method fails to…
We present a novel underwater image enhancement method termed SCNet to improve the image quality meanwhile cope with the degradation diversity caused by the water. SCNet is based on normalization schemes across both spatial and channel dimensions with the key idea of learning water type desensitized…
Underwater images suffer from degradation due to light scattering and absorption. It remains challenging to restore such degraded images using deep neural networks since real-world paired data is scarcely available while synthetic paired data cannot approximate real-world data perfectly. In this pap…
Underwater images suffer from degradation caused by light scattering and absorption. Training a deep neural network to restore underwater images is challenging due to the labor-intensive data collection and the lack of paired data. To this end, we propose an unsupervised and untrained underwater ima…
