Enlighten Anything: When Segment Anything Model Meets Low-Light Image Enhancement

Qihan Zhao, Xiaofeng Zhang, Hao Tang, Chaochen Gu, Shanying Zhu

Image restoration is a low-level visual task, and most CNN methods are designed as black boxes, lacking transparency and intrinsic aesthetics. Many unsupervised approaches ignore the degradation of visible information in low-light scenes, which will seriously affect the aggregation of complementary information and also make the fusion algorithm unable to produce satisfactory fusion results under extreme conditions. In this paper, we propose Enlighten-anything, which is able to enhance and fuse the semantic intent of SAM segmentation with low-light images to obtain fused images with good visual perception. The generalization ability of unsupervised learning is greatly improved, and experiments on LOL dataset are conducted to show that our method improves 3db in PSNR over baseline and 8 in SSIM. Zero-shot learning of SAM introduces a powerful aid for unsupervised low-light enhancement.
