Images obtained under low-light conditions will seriously affect the quality of the images. Solving the problem of poor low-light image quality can effectively improve the visual quality of images and better improve the usability of computer vision. In addition, it has very important applications in many fields. This paper proposes a DEANet based on Retinex for low-light image enhancement. It combines the frequency information and content information of the image into three sub-networks: decomposition network, enhancement network and adjustment network. These three sub-networks are respectively used for decomposition, denoising, contrast enhancement and detail preservation, adjustment, and image generation. Our model has good robust results for all low-light images. The model is trained on the public data set LOL, and the experimental results show that our method is better than the existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of vision and quality.

In recent years, the security of deep learning models achieves more and more attentions with the rapid development of neural networks, which are vulnerable to adversarial examples. Almost all existing gradient-based attack methods use the sign function in the generation to meet the requirement of perturbation budget on $L_\infty$ norm. However, we find that the sign function may be improper for generating adversarial examples since it modifies the exact gradient direction. Instead of using the sign function, we propose to directly utilize the exact gradient direction with a scaling factor for generating adversarial perturbations, which improves the attack success rates of adversarial examples even with fewer perturbations. At the same time, we also theoretically prove that this method can achieve better black-box transferability. Moreover, considering that the best scaling factor varies across different images, we propose an adaptive scaling factor generator to seek an appropriate scaling factor for each image, which avoids the computational cost for manually searching the scaling factor. Our method can be integrated with almost all existing gradient-based attack methods to further improve their attack success rates. Extensive experiments on the CIFAR10 and ImageNet datasets show that our method exhibits higher transferability and outperforms the state-of-the-art methods.

Most graph-network-based meta-learning approaches model instance-level relation of examples. We extend this idea further to explicitly model the distribution-level relation of one example to all other examples in a 1-vs-N manner. We propose a novel approach named distribution propagation graph network (DPGN) for few-shot learning. It conveys both the distribution-level relations and instance-level relations in each few-shot learning task. To combine the distribution-level relations and instance-level relations for all examples, we construct a dual complete graph network which consists of a point graph and a distribution graph with each node standing for an example. Equipped with dual graph architecture, DPGN propagates label information from labeled examples to unlabeled examples within several update generations. In extensive experiments on few-shot learning benchmarks, DPGN outperforms state-of-the-art results by a large margin in 5% $\sim$ 12% under supervised setting and 7% $\sim$ 13% under semi-supervised setting. Code will be released.
