Overlapped Wavelet Diffusion for Low-Light Image Enhancement
In this study, we propose an overlapped wavelet diffusion framework for Low-Light Image Enhancement (LLIE), which incorporates two complementary components to achieve blocking artifact-free and detail-preserving enhancement. Although recent diffusion-based LLIE methods have demonstrated remarkable performance compared with traditional approaches, DiffLL still suffers from blocking artifacts caused by the Haar Wavelet Transform (WT) and blurred edges or over-smoothed textures due to the limitations of its High-Frequency Restoration Module (HFRM). To overcome these issues, we introduce an Overlapped WT (OWT) that incorporates correlations across neighboring regions, thereby structurally preventing blocking artifacts. Furthermore, we integrate a low-frequency-guided High-Frequency Enhance Block (HFEBlock) to strengthen detail recovery, yielding sharper edges and more reliable textures. Extensive experiments on the LOLv1 and LOLv2-real datasets demonstrate that our framework, termed OWDiff, consistently outperforms existing LLIE methods both qualitatively and quantitatively, achieving superior visual quality while maintaining computational efficiency. OWDiff effectively addresses the structural limitations of the Haar WT and the HFRM, achieving an average PSNR gain of 0.58 dB, along with a 1.64% relative improvement in SSIM and a 5.9% relative reduction in LPIPS, compared to DiffLL across both the LOLv1 and LOLv2-real datasets.
