BRIC-Net: Boundary-Reliable Illumination-Color Interaction for Remote Sensing Image Deshadowing
Shadows in remote sensing images obscure surface appearance and disrupt radiometric continuity, reducing the reliability of visual interpretation and downstream analysis. Remote sensing image deshadowing is an ill-posed inverse problem that requires spatially varying illumination recovery while preserving chromatic and radiometric consistency in non-shadow regions. Existing methods commonly rely on hard shadow masks for compensation or directly regress RGB intensities. Hard masks may inadequately model gradual penumbra variations and are sensitive to localization errors, often producing residual shadows or halo artifacts; direct RGB regression entangles illumination recovery with chromatic reconstruction and can introduce color casts. To this end, we propose the Boundary-Reliable Illumination-Color Interaction Network (BRIC-Net), which decouples these failures at different representation levels. A Lightness Reliability Prior (LRP) derives reliability-aware guidance from CIELAB statistics. Boundary-Adaptive Gated Mixing (BAGM) performs gated interpolation between shallow RGB and lightness features around uncertain transitions, while Spatial-Channel Mutual Modulation (SCMM) coordinates deeper spatial and channel responses for appearance-preserving illumination recovery. BRIC-Net achieves 29.46~dB full-image peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) on AeroDS-Syn and 27.96~dB on SRGTA. It also obtains the lowest Perception-based Image Quality Evaluator (PIQE) scores on AISD and AeroDS-Real. Region-wise evaluations and component ablations further support its effectiveness in shadow recovery and non-shadow preservation.
