摘要
A low illumination image enhancement algorithm based on dual branch channel priors and Retinex is proposed to address the issues of local dimming,detail loss,and over enhancement in existing algorithms. Firstly,on the basis of Retinex,a dual branch bright dark prior feature guidance method is proposed,and a bright channel prior feature module and a dark channel prior feature module are designed to guide the network to suppress reflection component noise and improve lighting component brightness;Secondly,a pixel mixed attention mechanism module is designed to learn targeted features from three dimensions:channel,space,and pixel;Thirdly,a dark channel refractive index estimation module is designed to amplify image detail features. Finally,a mixed loss function is used to adjust brightness,contrast,noise,and color constraints. The experimental results on public datasets show that compared with 10 advanced algorithms,this algorithm improves image brightness while reducing color distortion and detail loss,achieving the best visual effects and quality indicators. © 2025 Editorial Board of Jilin University.
