New framework tackles nighttime lens flare removal with semi-supervised learning

Researchers have developed a novel semi-supervised framework for removing nighttime lens flares from images, addressing the challenge of limited paired data. The proposed method, Semi-LAR, enhances learning from unlabeled images by refining pseudo-labels through quality assessment and filtering, and by employing a flare-aware contrastive loss. This approach encourages representations that are discriminative against flare patterns while remaining consistent with reliable targets, demonstrating improved performance and robustness across various benchmarks.

    Semi-LAR: Semi-supervised Contrastive Learning with Linear Attention for Removal of Nighttime Flares

    Lens flare removal is challenging due to the large spatial extent of flare artifacts and their entanglement with scene structures, while existing methods heavily rely on large-scale paired data. We propose a semi-supervised flare removal framework that enables stable learning fro…
