DART: A Degradation-Aware Recurrent Transformer for Archival Film Restoration

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2607. 21219v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Archival film restoration is a challenging problem because historical footage contains compound degradations such as scratches, dust, blur, noise, flicker, and photometric aging, while clean reference videos are unavailable.

AbsoluteDegradation: A Physics-Inspired Synthetic Film-Degradation Pipeline and Archival Film Restoration Benchmark

arXiv:2607. 02131v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Restoring archival film remains a fundamentally challenging problem due to the absence of paired training data and the lack of standardized evaluation benchmarks.

FastVR: Efficient Streaming Video Restoration with One-Step Diffusion

FastVR is a streaming video restoration framework that uses a one‑step diffusion model to achieve strong restoration quality and temporal consistency while processing 1080p video at 11 FPS on a single H20 GPU. It addresses efficiency bottlenecks by combining a lightweight VAE with chunk‑wise causal attention, and improves inference speed and restoration quality through velocity consistency regularization and continuous trajectory learning during training. Experiments demonstrate that FastVR outperforms diffusion baselines in efficiency and achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on both synthetic and real‑world benchmarks.
