FourLLIE: Boosting Low-Light Image Enhancement by Fourier Frequency Information

Introduction

This is the official pytorch implementation of "FourLLIE: Boosting Low-Light Image Enhancement by Fourier Frequency Information" (ACM MM 2023)

pipeline

We design a two-stage framework to enhance low-light images with the help of the Fourier frequency information. In the first stage, we improve the lightness of low-light images by estimating the amplitude transform map in the Fourier space. In the second stage, we introduce the Signal-to-Noise-Ratio (SNR) map to provide the prior for integrating the global Fourier frequency and the local spatial information, which recovers image details in the spatial space. With this ingenious design, FourLLIE outperforms the existing state-of-the-art (SOTA) LLIE methods on four representative datasets while maintaining good model efficiency.

Installation

conda create --name FourLLIE --file requirements.txt
conda activate FourLLIE

Train

You can modify the training configuration (e.g., the path of datasets, learning rate, or model settings) in ./options/train/LOLv2_real.yml and run:

python train.py -opt ./options/train/LOLv2_real.yml

Test

Modify the testing configuration in ./options/test/LOLv2_real.yml and run:

python test.py -opt ./options/test/LOLv2_real.yml

Datasets

LOL-real and LOL-sys can be found in here.
LSRW-Huawei and LSRW-Nikon can be found in here.

Pre-trained

We update the pre-trained model in the ./pre-trained. Note that the initial models of LSRW is missing and we re-trained them. The metric results may not exactly match the results reported in paper. You can freely choose any version.

Acknowledgement

This repo is based on SNR-Aware.
