Overview

Lighting the Darkness in the Deep Learning Era: A Survey, An Online Platform, A New Dataset

This repository provides a unified online platform, LoLi-Platform http://mc.nankai.edu.cn/ll/, that covers many popular deep learning-based LLIE methods, of which the results can be produced through a user-friendly web interface, contains a low-light image and video dataset, LoLi-Phone (will be released soon), in which the images and videos are taken by various phones' cameras under diverse illumination conditions and scenes, and collects deep learning-based low-light image and video enhancement methods, datasets, and evaluation metrics. More content and details can be found in our Survey Paper: Lighting the Darkness in the Deep Learning Era. We provide the comparison results on the real low-light videos taken by different mobile phones’ cameras at YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Elo9TkrG5Oo&t=6s.

We will periodically update the content. Welcome to let us know if we miss your work that is published in top-tier Journal or conference. We will add it.

Our LoLi-Platform supports the function of download. Please right click and then save the figure.

If you use this dataset or platform, please cite our paper. Please hit the star at the top-right corner. Thanks!
