DeepBlindness: Fast Blindness Map Estimation and Blindness Type Classification for Outdoor Scene from Single Color Image
Outdoor vision robotic systems and autonomous cars suffer from many image-quality issues, particularly haze, defocus blur, and motion blur, which we will define generically as "blindness issues". These blindness issues may seriously affect the performance of robotic systems and could lead to unsafe decisions being made. However, existing solutions either focus on one type of blindness only or lack the ability to estimate the degree of blindness accurately. Besides, heavy computation is needed so that these solutions cannot run in real-time on practical systems. In this paper, we provide a method which could simultaneously detect the type of blindness and provide a blindness map indicating to what degree the vision is limited on a pixel-by-pixel basis. Both the blindness type and the estimate of per-pixel blindness are essential for tasks like deblur, dehaze, or the fail-safe functioning of robotic systems. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on the KITTI and CUHK datasets where experiments show that our method outperforms other state-of-the-art approaches, achieving speeds of about 130 frames per second (fps).

Towards Healing the Blindness of Score Matching
Score-based divergences have been widely used in machine learning and statistics applications. Despite their empirical success, a blindness problem has been observed when using these for multi-modal distributions. In thi…
Density EstimationAn Adaptive Fuzzy-Based System to Simulate, Quantify and Compensate Color Blindness
About 8% of the male population of the world are affected by a determined type of color vision disturbance, which varies from the partial to complete reduction of the ability to distinguish certain colors. A considerable…

This paper presents ColorBlindnessEval, a novel benchmark designed to evaluate the robustness of Vision-Language Models (VLMs) in visually adversarial scenarios inspired by the Ishihara color blindness test. Our dataset …
Simulation of Color Blindness and a Proposal for Using Google Glass as Color-correcting Tool
The human visual color response is driven by specialized cells called cones, which exist in three types, viz. R, G, and B. Software is developed to simulate how color images are displayed for different types of color bli…
Uncovering and Mitigating Transient Blindness in Multimodal Model Editing
Multimodal Model Editing (MMED) aims to correct erroneous knowledge in multimodal models. Existing evaluation methods, adapted from textual model editing, overstate success by relying on low-similarity or random inputs, …
