Fill My Mirror: Geometry-Constrained Mirror Inpainting

The paper introduces a method for mirror inpainting that leverages scene geometry to generate realistic reflections. By estimating the geometry of the fixed scene, the approach projects visible content into the mirror region, reducing the need for hallucination. A two‑mask diffusion strategy then refines the mirror area, balancing geometric constraints with learned priors, and the method operates without training on complex real‑world scenes.

Reflection-aware Generative Novel View Synthesis

The paper introduces Ref-GeNVS, a training‑free, reflection‑aware approach for generative novel view synthesis in mirror scenes. It treats a mirror image as two complementary views, estimates the mirror plane and reflected camera poses, and uses a two‑stage generation process with Mirror‑gated attention and Reflection injection to produce reflection‑consistent novel views. The method leverages a multi‑view diffusion backbone without finetuning, outperforming recent generative NVS methods on synthetic and real mirror scenes.

PRISM: Feed-Forward Single-Image 3D Reconstruction via Geometric Warp-Residual Modeling

Reconstructing 3D scenes from a single image is a fundamental challenge in computer vision, with broad applications in virtual reality, robotics, and content creation. Recent methods achieve outstanding performance by leveraging camera-controlled video diffusion models, but rely on iterative diffusion sampling, which greatly limits their practical deployment.

MirrorDistill: Illumination-Aware Latent Distillation for Efficient Low-Light Restoration

MirrorDistill introduces an illumination‑aware latent distillation framework for low‑light image enhancement. It trains a lightweight student encoder‑decoder by aligning its intermediate features with clean‑domain targets generated by a teacher decoder, using feature mirroring and illumination‑aware weighting to emphasize underexposed regions. The method achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on the LOL‑v2‑Real benchmark while maintaining the lowest computational complexity, and the code is released as open source.
