SimROD: A Simple Baseline for Raw Object Detection with Global and Local Enhancements
Haiyang Xie, Xi Shen, Shihua Huang, Qirui Wang, Zheng Wang
- SimROD takes a packed RAW image as input and first learns a global gamma transformation through the Global Gamma Enhancement (GGE) module. The transformed data is then processed by Green-Guided Local Enhancement (GGLE) to enhance local details. SimROD outperformed the state-of-the-art method with just 1% of the parameters. Code and paper are available at Project Page.

Striking a balance: Unsupervised cross-domain crowd counting via knowledge diffusion
Haiyang Xie*, Zhengwei Yang*, Huilin Zhu, Zheng Wang†
- This paper introduces a Selfawareness Knowledge Diffusion method (SaKnD) that leverages the self-knowledge without establishing cross-domain knowledge relationships, which aims to balance the knowledge bias between general and domain-specific knowledge
