Multi-illuminant color constancy methods aim to eliminate local color casts within an image through pixel-wise illuminant estimation. Existing methods mainly employ deep learning to establish a direct mapping between an image and its…
Most recent methods of deep image enhancement can be generally classified into two types: decompose-and-enhance and illumination estimation-centric. The former is usually less efficient, and the latter is constrained by a strong assumption…
