LLPR: Location-aware learning and physics-based reconstruction for raindrop removal from a single image

The paper introduces LLPR, a framework that integrates location-aware learning and physics-based reconstruction to remove raindrops from single images. It replaces costly preprocessing masks with a learnable branch that can be discarded during inference, and reconstructs the background by first estimating a transparency matrix and raindrop layer using a physical model. The authors also present a new real-world dataset and show that LLPR outperforms existing state‑of‑the‑art methods.

GRAR: Glass-induced Reflection Artifact Removal in LiDAR Point Clouds

Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) point clouds captured in urban environments frequently suffer from glass-induced reflection artifacts, severely degrading downstream applications. Existing reflection artifact removal methods generally rely on ideal reflection symmetry assumptions, yet their performance is limited by inaccurate glass estimation and insufficient geometric representations.

Learning Intrinsic Water-Quality Dynamics with Rainfall for Data-Driven Forecasting

The paper introduces RaiNet, a data‑driven model that jointly learns multiscale water‑quality dynamics and station‑specific rainfall effects. It uses LocTrend to capture irregular water‑quality patterns, constructs station‑oriented rainfall events from gridded precipitation, and applies XGateFusion for lag‑aware fusion across scales. Experiments on three new multimodal datasets show RaiNet surpasses existing time‑series, water‑quality, diffusion‑based, and spatiotemporal models by over 20%, with each module contributing uniquely to performance.

Weather-Conditioned Depth Anything

Weather-Conditioned Depth Anything (DA‑W) is a new framework that enhances monocular depth estimation models, like the Depth Anything series, to perform robustly under adverse weather conditions such as fog, rain, snow, and low‑light. It achieves this by disentangling style from content: a Style Filter extracts weather‑specific embeddings from a curated mix of real and synthetic degradation data, which are then injected into the backbone via a lightweight, zero‑initialized adapter. The adapter is trained with pseudo‑label distillation and alignment, enabling a single unified model to adapt to diverse weather scenarios while preserving its generalization on clean data, and it achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance with an average 3.7% improvement in AbsRel on weather benchmarks.

FluidRain: Incompressible Rain Flow as an Attention Bias for Loop-in-Loop Video Deraining

FluidRain is a lightweight video deraining model that leverages a divergence‑free rain flow field to guide Loop‑in‑Loop attention across scales and neighboring frames, eliminating the need for explicit motion alignment. By projecting estimated rain‑flow onto a divergence‑free subspace, the method steers window attention along rain streaks, enabling efficient temporal aggregation with only 0.80 M parameters. Experiments on four benchmarks demonstrate competitive performance against larger models, and the authors introduce a new RainSyn‑Gust dataset and a physics‑based no‑reference metric for evaluating real‑rain removal.
