Bilateral Interaction for Local-Global Collaborative Perception in Low-Light Image Enhancement

Low-light image enhancement is a challenging task due to the limited visibility in dark environments. While recent advances have shown progress in integrating CNNs and Transformers, the inadequate local-global perceptual interactions still impedes their application in complex degradation scenarios. To tackle this issue, we propose BiFormer, a lightweight framework that facilitates local-global collaborative perception via bilatera linteraction. Specifically, our framework introduces a core CNN-Transformer collaborative perception block (CPB) that combines local-aware convolutional attention (LCA) and global-aware recursive Transformer (GRT) to simultaneously preserve local details and ensure global consistency. To promote perceptual interaction, we adopt bilateral interaction strategy for both local and global perception, which involves local-to-global second-order interaction (SoI) in the dual-domain, as well as a mixed-channel fusion (MCF) module for global-to-local interaction. The MCF is also a highly efficient feature fusion module tailored for degraded features. Extensive experiments conducted on low-level and high-level tasks demonstrate that BiFormer achieves state-of-the-art performance. Furthermore, it exhibits a significant reduction in model parameters and computational cost compared to existing Transformer-based low-light image enhancement methods.
