Modulating image restoration level aims to generate a restored image by altering a factor that represents the restoration strength. Previous works mainly focused on optimizing the mean squared reconstruction error, which brings high reconstruction accuracy but lacks finer texture details. This paper presents a Controllable Unet Generative Adversarial Network (CUGAN) to generate high-frequency textures in the modulation tasks. CUGAN consists of two modules -- base networks and condition networks. The base networks comprise a generator and a discriminator. In the generator, we realize the interactive control of restoration levels by tuning the weights of different features from different scales in the Unet architecture. Moreover, we adaptively modulate the intermediate features in the discriminator according to the severity of degradations. The condition networks accept the condition vector (encoded degradation information) as input, then generate modulation parameters for both the generator and the discriminator. During testing, users can control the output effects by tweaking the condition vector. We also provide a smooth transition between GAN and MSE effects by a simple transition method. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed CUGAN achieves excellent performance on image restoration modulation tasks.

Machine learning and many of its applications are considered hard to approach due to their complexity and lack of transparency. One mission of human-centric machine learning is to improve algorithm transparency and user satisfaction while ensuring an
acceptable task accuracy. In this work, we present an interactive image restoration framework, which exploits both image prior and human painting knowledge in an iterative manner such that they can boost on each other. Additionally, in this system users can repeatedly get feedback of their interactions from the restoration progress. This informs the users about their impact on the restoration results, which leads to better sense of control, which can lead to greater trust and approachability. The positive results of both objective and subjective evaluation indicate that, our interactive approach positively contributes to the approachability of restoration algorithms in terms of algorithm performance and user experience.
Ill-posed inverse problems appear in many image processing applications, such as deblurring and super-resolution. In recent years, solutions that are based on deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have shown great promise. Yet, most of these tech
niques, which train CNNs using external data, are restricted to the observation models that have been used in the training phase. A recent alternative that does not have this drawback relies on learning the target image using internal learning. One such prominent example is the Deep Image Prior (DIP) technique that trains a network directly on the input image with a least-squares loss. In this paper, we propose a new image restoration framework that is based on minimizing a loss function that includes a projected-version of the Generalized SteinUnbiased Risk Estimator (GSURE) and parameterization of the latent image by a CNN. We demonstrate two ways to use our framework. In the first one, where no explicit prior is used, we show that the proposed approach outperforms other internal learning methods, such as DIP. In the second one, we show that our GSURE-based loss leads to improved performance when used within a plug-and-play priors scheme.
Hybrid-distorted image restoration (HD-IR) is dedicated to restore real distorted image that is degraded by multiple distortions. Existing HD-IR approaches usually ignore the inherent interference among hybrid distortions which compromises the restor
ation performance. To decompose such interference, we introduce the concept of Disentangled Feature Learning to achieve the feature-level divide-and-conquer of hybrid distortions. Specifically, we propose the feature disentanglement module (FDM) to distribute feature representations of different distortions into different channels by revising gain-control-based normalization. We also propose a feature aggregation module (FAM) with channel-wise attention to adaptively filter out the distortion representations and aggregate useful content information from different channels for the construction of raw image. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is verified by visualizing the correlation matrix of features and channel responses of different distortions. Extensive experimental results also prove superior performance of our approach compared with the latest HD-IR schemes.
Deep learning methods have witnessed the great progress in image restoration with specific metrics (e.g., PSNR, SSIM). However, the perceptual quality of the restored image is relatively subjective, and it is necessary for users to control the recons
truction result according to personal preferences or image characteristics, which cannot be done using existing deterministic networks. This motivates us to exquisitely design a unified interactive framework for general image restoration tasks. Under this framework, users can control continuous transition of different objectives, e.g., the perception-distortion trade-off of image super-resolution, the trade-off between noise reduction and detail preservation. We achieve this goal by controlling the latent features of the designed network. To be specific, our proposed framework, named Controllable Feature Space Network (CFSNet), is entangled by two branches based on different objectives. Our framework can adaptively learn the coupling coefficients of different layers and channels, which provides finer control of the restored image quality. Experiments on several typical image restoration tasks fully validate the effective benefits of the proposed method. Code is available at https://github.com/qibao77/CFSNet.
We present a single-image 3D face synthesis technique that can handle challenging facial expressions while recovering fine geometric details. Our technique employs expression analysis for proxy face geometry generation and combines supervised and uns
upervised learning for facial detail synthesis. On proxy generation, we conduct emotion prediction to determine a new expression-informed proxy. On detail synthesis, we present a Deep Facial Detail Net (DFDN) based on Conditional Generative Adversarial Net (CGAN) that employs both geometry and appearance loss functions. For geometry, we capture 366 high-quality 3D scans from 122 different subjects under 3 facial expressions. For appearance, we use additional 20K in-the-wild face images and apply image-based rendering to accommodate lighting variations. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that our framework can produce high-quality 3D faces with realistic details under challenging facial expressions.
