ZeroIDIR: Zero-Reference Illumination Degradation Image Restoration with Perturbed Consistency Diffusion Models
In this paper, we propose a zero-reference diffusion-based framework, named ZeroIDIR, for illumination degradation image restoration, which decouples the restoration process into adaptive illumination correction and diffusion-based reconstruction while being trained solely on low-quality degraded images. Specifically, we design an adaptive gamma correction module that performs spatially varying exposure correction to generate illumination-corrected only representations to mitigate exposure bias and serve as reliable inputs for subsequent diffusion processes, where a histogram-guided illumination correction loss is introduced to regularize the corrected illumination distribution toward that of natural scenes. Subsequently, the illumination-corrected image is treated as an intermediate noisy state for the proposed perturbed consistency diffusion model to reconstruct details and suppress noise. Moreover, a perturbed diffusion consistency loss is proposed to constrain the forward diffusion trajectory of the final restored image to remain consistent with the perturbed state, thus improving restoration fidelity and stability in the absence of supervision. Extensive experiments on publicly available benchmarks show that the proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art unsupervised competitors and is comparable to supervised methods while being more generalizable to various scenes.
