Consist‑Retinex introduces a one‑step noise‑emphasized consistency training framework for Retinex‑based low‑light image enhancement. It first decomposes images into reflectance and illumination maps using a Retinex Transformer Decomposition Network, then trains two conditional consistency models with a dual objective that blends trajectory consistency and ground‑truth alignment. The method employs adaptive noise‑emphasized fixed‑point sampling to focus supervision near the inference endpoint, achieving state‑of‑the‑art VE‑LOL‑L scores on paired and unpaired low‑light benchmarks while reducing sampling and training costs.

Real-world image super-resolution (Real-ISR) aims to reconstruct high-quality (HQ) images from low-quality (LQ) inputs subject to diverse real-world degradations. Recent advances have leveraged the LQ inputs and natural image priors learned by Stable Diffusion models to achieve impressive results.

arXiv:2512. 04390v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Joint video super-resolution and deblurring (VSRDB) requires both efficient long-range temporal modeling and robustness to frame-wise exposure-duration variation, which changes the extent of motion blur across video frames.

The paper introduces a zero‑shot video restoration and enhancement framework that leverages a text‑to‑image latent diffusion model along with multi‑modal references. It employs dual prompt tuning inversion and sampling to cut inference time to about one‑third of the original, while also strengthening performance and temporal consistency. Additional techniques such as texture‑aware video token merging, referenced self‑attention, and referenced token merging further improve temporal coherence across frames.

Diffusion Editing with Soft Mask: Pixel Level Redo of Image and Video with Adjustable Strength introduces SoftPaint, a zero‑shot sampling method that uses soft masks to provide continuous, pixel‑level control over edits in diffusion models. The approach employs a Langevin‑iteration sampler that respects per‑pixel mask strengths, enabling smooth edits from preserving to fully re‑synthesizing content across image and video backbones. SoftPaint is gradient‑free, memory‑efficient, and works universally with existing diffusion models.

IDM-Net is a lightweight Illumination-Decoupled Modulation Network designed for low-light image enhancement. It uses a dual-encoder architecture: a structure encoder extracts multi-scale appearance features from the RGB image, while a lightweight illumination encoder learns illumination priors from the decoupled luminance channel. An Illumination-Guided Modulation module injects these priors into the decoder via spatially adaptive affine modulation, and a Feature Refinement Block progressively suppresses artifacts and recovers fine details, achieving competitive performance on standard benchmarks with good balance between quality and efficiency.
