Nighttime image dehazing is a challenging task due to the presence of multiple types adverse degrading effects including glow, haze, blur, noise, color distortion, and so on. However, most previous studies mainly focus on daytime or partial degradations presented in nighttime hazy scenes, which may lead unsatisfactory restoration results. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end transformer-based framework for haze removal, called NightHazeFormer. Our proposed approach consists two stages:...

Night photography often struggles with challenges like low light and blurring, stemming from dark environments prolonged exposures. Current methods either disregard priors directly fitting end-to-end networks, leading to inconsistent illumination, or rely on unreliable handcrafted constrain the network, thereby bringing greater error final result. We believe in strength of data-driven high-quality strive offer a reliable consistent prior, circumventing restrictions manual priors. In this...

Existing low-light image enhancement (LIE) methods have achieved noteworthy success in solving synthetic distortions, yet they often fall short practical applications. The limitations arise from two inherent challenges real-world LIE: 1) the collection of distorted/clean pairs is impractical and sometimes even unavailable, 2) accurately modeling complex degradations presents a non-trivial problem. To overcome them, we propose Attribute Guidance Diffusion framework (AGLLDiff), training-free...
