Crowd counting is a fundamental task in computer vision. However, crowd counting in low-light environments remains largely underexplored, despite its practical importance in the real world.

Low-light human action recognition remains a challenging problem due to poor illumination, amplified noise, motion ambiguity, and diverse real-world scenes. Existing low-light datasets often lack sufficient action diversity, capture realism, or balanced class distribution, limiting the development of robust models.
arXiv:2606. 06899v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Variations in illumination remain a major challenge for visual representation learning, as they induce substantial appearance changes both across and within environments.
RelightFormer is a feed‑forward generative Transformer that performs single‑ and multi‑view image relighting without explicit intrinsic property estimation. It incorporates a latent illumination module that injects target environment maps into spatial features via cross‑attention, and uses permutation‑invariant positional encodings to process unordered multi‑view inputs symmetrically. Trained on the large Laval Objaverse Dataset, the model achieves state‑of‑the‑art visual and photorealistic relighting quality, and demonstrates strong zero‑shot generalization across various relighting tasks.
arXiv:2606. 14297v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Developing accurate crowd-counting models for Hajj pilgrimage scenes remains challenging because domain-specific annotated images are scarce and data collection during large gatherings raises privacy concerns.
arXiv:2602. 07343v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Robust semantic segmentation of road scenes under adverse illumination, lighting, and shadow conditions remain a core challenge for autonomous driving applications.
arXiv:2608. 06236v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Our primary objective is to advance video object counting in crowded scenes, aiming to robustly count all instances of a target category based on given text or visual prompts.
arXiv:2604. 10359v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Low-light image enhancement (LLIE) aims to restore natural visibility, color fidelity, and structural detail under severe illumination degradation.
arXiv:2607. 03013v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Images captured by consumer electronic devices, such as mobile phones and digital cameras, often suffer from low-light degradation due to sensor limitations and imaging pipelines, which degrades visual quality and affects downstream vision tasks.
The paper reviews the evolution of object‑counting techniques from class‑specific density regression to open‑vocabulary, foundation‑model‑backed counters that can handle visual and textual prompts. It highlights that current evaluation relies on a few saturated benchmarks, leading to models exploiting statistical regularities rather than true generalization. The authors propose a five‑axis taxonomy and audit the literature across domains such as microscopy, remote sensing, crowd counting, and agriculture, identifying six structural contradictions and outlining a roadmap for robust, multimodal evaluation protocols.
WildRelight is the first in-the-wild dataset designed to evaluate single-image relighting models, featuring high-resolution outdoor scenes captured under strictly aligned, temporally varying natural illuminations paired with high-dynamic-range environment maps. The benchmark demonstrates that state-of-the-art models trained on synthetic data suffer severe domain shifts when applied to real-world imagery. Leveraging the dataset’s temporal structure, the authors introduce a physics-guided inference framework combining Diffusion Posterior Sampling with Temporal Sampling-Aware Test-Time Adaptation, enabling synthetic models to self-supervise and align with real-world statistics on-the-fly.
