Underwater Image Enhancement via Medium Transmission-Guided Multi-Color Space Embedding [PDF]
Underwater images suffer from color casts and low contrast due to wavelength- and distance-dependent attenuation and scattering. To solve these two degradation issues, we present an underwater image enhancement network via medium transmission-guided ...

PUGAN: Physical Model-Guided Underwater Image Enhancement Using GAN With Dual-Discriminators [PDF]
Due to the light absorption and scattering induced by the water medium, underwater images usually suffer from some degradation problems, such as low contrast, color distortion, and blurring details, which aggravate the difficulty of downstream underwater

U-Shape Transformer for Underwater Image Enhancement [PDF]
The light absorption and scattering of underwater impurities lead to poor underwater imaging quality. The existing data-driven based underwater image enhancement (UIE) techniques suffer from the lack of a large-scale dataset containing various underwater

Learning Semantic-Aware Knowledge Guidance for Low-Light Image Enhancement [PDF]
Low-light image enhancement (LLIE) investigates how to improve illumination and produce normal-light images. The majority of existing methods improve low-light images via a global and uniform manner, without taking into account the semantic information ...

Pyramid Diffusion Models For Low-light Image Enhancement [PDF]
Recovering noise-covered details from low-light images is challenging, and the results given by previous methods leave room for improvement. Recent diffusion models show realistic and detailed image generation through a sequence of denoising refinements ...
