Low-light Image Enhancement via CLIP-Fourier Guided Wavelet Diffusion

Low-light image enhancement techniques have significantly progressed, but unstable image quality recovery and unsatisfactory visual perception are still significant challenges. To solve these problems, we propose a novel and robust low-light image enhancement method via CLIP-Fourier Guided Wavelet Diffusion, abbreviated as CFWD. Specifically, we design a guided network with a multiscale visual language in the frequency domain based on the wavelet transform to achieve effective image enhancement iteratively. In addition, we combine the advantages of Fourier transform in detail perception to construct a hybrid frequency domain space with significant perceptual capabilities(HFDPM). This operation guides wavelet diffusion to recover the fine-grained structure of the image and avoid diversity confusion. Extensive quantitative and qualitative experiments on publicly available real-world benchmarks show that our method outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods and better reproduces images similar to normal images.
