MeanFlow framework enhances low-light RAW images with motion blur

Researchers have introduced MeanFlow, a novel framework designed to enhance extremely low-light RAW images that also suffer from motion blur. This approach addresses the common oversight in existing methods that focus on illumination and noise while neglecting motion degradation. The framework includes a new dataset, SIDED, which captures controlled motion blur in low-light RAW images, and a unified RAW tokenizer to align different lighting conditions. MeanFlow performs enhancement in a single function evaluation, and a physics-guided refinement model further improves image quality without increasing computational cost. AI

IMPACT Introduces a new method for enhancing low-light images with motion blur, potentially improving performance in challenging photographic conditions.

    When Extreme Darkness Meets Motion Blur: MeanFlow for Unified RAW Restoration

    arXiv:2608.01720v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Extremely low-light RAW enhancement aims to recover severely attenuated sensor signals, yet existing methods often focus on illumination and noise while overlooking the motion-induced degradations inherent in practical low-light ima…
