WildShadowRemover: In-the-Wild Video Shadow Removal via Detail-Preserving Video Diffusion Models

WildShadowRemover is a framework that adapts a pretrained video diffusion model for robust in-the-wild video shadow removal using LoRA fine-tuning. It augments the frozen VAE decoder with a detail injection module and introduces a shadow‑mask‑guided frequency‑decomposed modulation module to restore high‑frequency textures while suppressing shadow artifacts, with monocular depth priors providing geometry‑aware guidance. The authors also create WildShadow, a large‑scale paired video shadow removal dataset, and show that their method outperforms existing approaches in shadow removal quality, temporal consistency, and generalization across challenging real‑world scenarios.

FreeShadow: Training-Free Shadow Removal via Illumination Transfer and Selective Content Preservation in Diffusion Models

Existing supervised and unsupervised shadow removal methods often suffer from limited generalization due to the insufficient diversity of available training datasets, while zero-shot methods tend to produce artifacts and require time-consuming test-time optimization. To address these issues, we propose FreeShadow, a training-free shadow removal method built upon pretrained diffusion models, which exploits diffusion priors for shadow removal without any training or optimization.

PatchDenoiser: Parameter-efficient multi-scale patch learning and fusion denoiser for Low-dose CT imaging

arXiv:2602. 21987v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Low-dose CT images are essential for reducing radiation exposure in cancer screening, pediatric imaging, and longitudinal monitoring protocols, but their quality is often degraded by noise from low-dose acquisition, patient motion, or scanner limitations, affecting both clinical interpretation and downstream analysis.
