Towards Color-Faithful Low-Light Image Enhancement via Adaptive Color Debiasing and Saturation Rectification

Low-light imaging often introduces color bias caused by the low signal-to-noise ratio and the image formation process. Although recent low-light image enhancement methods have achieved strong brightness recovery, faithful color restoration remains challenging, manifesting as overall color bias together with local under- and over-saturation. To address this issue, we propose CAGE, a cylindrical color correction framework with adaptive color debiasing and gamut-harmonized saturation rectification for color-faithful low-light image enhancement. We first introduce AdaLAB, a cylindrical adaptive LAB color space that provides a decoupled and image-specific basis for uniform color correction. Building on this color space, we further develop AdaCCT, an adaptive cylindrical color transform with forward and inverse transforms for the conversion between RGB and AdaLAB color space, as well as necessary color debiasing and saturation rectification. The forward transform suppresses embedded color bias before backbone enhancement by reorganizing the chromatic distribution through chromatic-plane shifting and scaling, while the inverse transform achieves faithful saturation rectification through out-of-gamut lightness compensation. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmarks show that CAGE achieves more faithful color restoration, specifically reduces color bias and saturation abnormality, and delivers better overall visual quality across different low-light enhancement backbones.

OmniVaT: Single Domain Generalization for Multimodal Visual-Tactile Learning

Visual-tactile learning (VTL) enables embodied agents to perceive the physical world by integrating visual (VIS) and tactile (TAC) sensors. However, VTL still suffers from modality discrepancies between VIS and TAC images, as well as domain gaps caused by non-standardized tactile sensors and inconsistent data collection procedures. We formulate these challenges as a new task, termed single domain generalization for multimodal VTL (SDG-VTL). In this paper, we propose an OmniVaT framework that, for the first time, successfully addresses this task. On the one hand, OmniVaT integrates a multimodal fractional Fourier adapter (MFFA) to map VIS and TAC embeddings into a unified embedding-frequency space, thereby effectively mitigating the modality gap without multi-domain training data or careful cross-modal fusion strategies. On the other hand, it also incorporates a discrete tree generation (DTG) module that obtains diverse and reliable multimodal fractional representations through a hierarchical tree structure, thereby enhancing its adaptivity to fluctuating domain shifts in unseen domains. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superior cross-domain generalization performance of OmniVaT on the SDG-VTL task.
