Graph-Based Joint Dequantization and Contrast Enhancement of Poorly Lit JPEG Images.
IEEE Transactions on Image Processing : a Publication of the IEEE Signal Processing Society 2019 March
JPEG images captured in poor lighting conditions suffer from both low luminance contrast and coarse quantization artifacts due to lossy compression. Performing dequantization and contrast enhancement in separate back-to-back steps would amplify the residual compression artifacts, resulting in low visual quality. Leveraging on recent development in graph signal processing (GSP), we propose to jointly dequantize and contrast-enhance such images in a single graph-signal restoration framework. Specifically, we separate each observed pixel patch into illumination and reflectance via Retinex theory, where we define generalized smoothness prior and signed graph smoothness prior according to their respective unique signal characteristics. Given only a transform-coded image patch, we compute robust edge weights for each graph via low-pass filtering in the dual graph domain. We compute the illumination and reflectance components for each patch alternately, adopting accelerated proximal gradient (APG) algorithms in the transform domain, with backtracking line search for further speedup. Experimental results show that our generated images outperform the state-of-the-art schemes noticeably in the subjective quality evaluation.
