Researchers have identified a significant bias in image denoising models that disproportionately affects dark pixels, leading to poor detail recovery in low-light conditions. This bias, termed brightness bias, arises because standard Mean Squared Error (MSE) training methods overemphasize bright regions. To address this, a new method called Brightness Bias-Robust Denoising (BBRD) has been proposed. BBRD normalizes per-band error by empirical noise variance and uses Group Distributionally Robust Optimization (Group-DRO) to dynamically adjust weightings, improving dark pixel reconstruction without adding parameters.
