MIMT: Multi-Illuminant Color Constancy via Multi-Task Local Surface and Light Color Learning

The assumption of a uniform light color distribution is no longer applicable in scenes that have multiple light colors. Most color constancy methods are designed to deal with a single light color, and thus are erroneous when applied to multiple light colors. The spatial variability in multiple light colors causes the color constancy problem to be more challenging and requires the extraction of local surface/light information. Motivated by this, we introduce a multi-task learning method to discount multiple light colors in a single input image. To have better cues of the local surface/light colors under multiple light color conditions, we design a novel multi-task learning framework. Our framework includes auxiliary tasks of achromatic-pixel detection and surface-color similarity prediction, providing better cues for local light and surface colors, respectively. Moreover, to ensure that our model maintains the constancy of surface colors regardless of the variations of light colors, a novel local surface color feature preservation scheme is developed. We demonstrate that our model achieves 47.1% improvement (from 4.69 mean angular error to 2.48) compared to a state-of-the-art multi-illuminant color constancy method on a multi-illuminant dataset (LSMI).
