- Introduces a Spatial-Spectral Dual-Gated Translator that learns the correspondence between auxiliary modalities and RGB inputs.
- Generates implicit auxiliary representations to support robust enhancement when real auxiliary modalities are missing.
- Leverages an RGB-only dataset together with large-scale multimodal pretraining, enabling the model to handle arbitrary combinations of input modalities at inference time.
- Achieves excellent performance under modality-absent conditions, addressing a key limitation of prior multimodal LLVE methods.
Abstract
Low-light video enhancement (LLVE) remains a challenging task due to severe information degradation under low-illumination conditions. Recent multimodal approaches have significantly improved enhancement performance by incorporating auxiliary modalities, such as event streams and infrared images. However, these methods typically assume the availability of these modalities at inference, which is often not feasible in real-world scenarios.
To solve this problem, the authors propose AMNet, a unified multimodal framework for LLVE that supports flexible, modality-agnostic inference, where auxiliary modalities may be unavailable.
