DiTTo: Scalable Order-aware All-in-One Image Restoration Agent

Real-world images rarely suffer from a single degradation, and the order in which degradations are removed substantially affects the final restoration quality, motivating agent-based image restoration (IR), where a vision-language model schedules a pool of pre-built restoration-experts. However, existing training-based agents require $\mathcal{O}((N^{\mathbf{D}})^{2})$ restoration-expert calls per image to construct the Optimal Restoration-action Trajectory Dataset (ORTD), where $N^{\mathbf{D}}$ denotes the number of degradation types in the universe $\mathbf{D}$, and couple agent training to a fixed restoration-expert pool, preventing extension to newly introduced restoration-experts without full retraining. To overcome these efficiency and extensibility bottlenecks, we propose \textbf{DiTTo}, a novel order-aware image restoration agent framework consisting of the DiTTo Simulator and the DiTTo Agent. The DiTTo Simulator combines $\cup$S-IR for single-step restoration-action simulation and AiO-IQA for per-action quality prediction, reducing ORTD construction to $\mathcal{O}(N^{\mathbf{D}})$ simulator calls per image; the DiTTo Agent is trained by SFT on the simulator-generated ORTD, followed by \textbf{Order-aware Restoration Alignment (ORA)} that aligns degradation identification, restoration-action-ordering, and output format along independent axes. This enables \textbf{plug-and-play scalable extensibility}: adding a new restoration-expert requires updating only the lightweight ORA stage. On the MiO-100 evaluation set with up to five concurrent degradations, our DiTTo Agent achieves state-of-the-art multi-degradation restoration quality among previous agent-based IR methods.

HyperCLOVA X Technical Report

We introduce HyperCLOVA X, a family of large language models (LLMs) tailored to the Korean language and culture, along with competitive capabilities in English, math, and coding. HyperCLOVA X was trained on a balanced mix of Korean, English, and code data, followed by instruction-tuning with high-quality human-annotated datasets while abiding by strict safety guidelines reflecting our commitment to responsible AI. The model is evaluated across various benchmarks, including comprehensive reasoning, knowledge, commonsense, factuality, coding, math, chatting, instruction-following, and harmlessness, in both Korean and English. HyperCLOVA X exhibits strong reasoning capabilities in Korean backed by a deep understanding of the language and cultural nuances. Further analysis of the inherent bilingual nature and its extension to multilingualism highlights the model's cross-lingual proficiency and strong generalization ability to untargeted languages, including machine translation between several language pairs and cross-lingual inference tasks. We believe that HyperCLOVA X can provide helpful guidance for regions or countries in developing their sovereign LLMs.
