19 Mar 2021 | Abstract: | Low-light image enhancement aims to improve an image’s visibility while
keeping its visual naturalness. Different from existing methods, which tend to
accomplish the enhancement task directly, we investigate the intrinsic
degradation and relight the low-light image while refining the details and
color in two steps. Inspired by the color image formulation (diffuse
illumination color plus environment illumination color), we first estimate the
degradation from low-light inputs to simulate the distortion of environment
illumination color, and then refine the content to recover the loss of diffuse
illumination color. To this end, we propose a novel Degradation-to-Refinement
Generation Network (DRGN). Its distinctive features can be summarized as 1) A
novel two-step generation network for degradation learning and content
refinement. It is not only superior to one-step methods, but also is capable of
synthesizing sufficient paired samples to benefit the model training; 2) A
multi-resolution fusion network to represent the target information
(degradation or contents) in a multi-scale cooperative manner, which is more
effective to address the complex unmixing problems. Extensive experiments on
both the enhancement task and the joint detection task have verified the
effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed method, surpassing the SOTA by
0.95dB in PSNR on LOL1000 dataset and 3.18\% in mAP on ExDark dataset. Our code
