Purple flare, a diffuse chromatic aberration artifact commonly found around highlight areas, severely degrades the tone transition and color of the image. Existing traditional methods are based on hand-crafted features, which lack flexibility and rely entirely on fixed priors, while the scarcity of paired training data critically hampers deep learning. To address this issue, we propose a novel network built upon decoupled HSV Look-Up Tables (LUTs). The method aims to simplify color correction by adjusting the Hue (H), Saturation (S), and Value (V) components independently. This approach resolves the inherent color coupling problems in traditional methods. Our model adopts a two-stage architecture: First, a Chroma-Aware Spectral Tokenizer (CAST) converts the input image from RGB space to HSV space and independently encodes the Hue (H) and Value (V) channels into a set of semantic tokens describing the Purple flare status; second, the HSV-LUT module takes these tokens as input and dynamically generates independent correction curves (1D-LUTs) for the three channels H, S, and V. To effectively train and validate our model, we built the first large-scale purple flare dataset with diverse scenes. We also proposed new metrics and a loss function specifically designed for this task. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our model not only significantly outperforms existing methods in visual effects but also achieves state-of-the-art performance on all quantitative metrics.

Video imaging is often affected by complex degradations such as blur, noise, and compression artifacts. Traditional restoration methods follow a "single-task single-model" paradigm, resulting in poor generalization and high computational cost, limiting their applicability in real-world scenarios with diverse degradation types. We propose UniFlowRestore, a general video restoration framework that models restoration as a time-continuous evolution under a prompt-guided and physics-informed vector field. A physics-aware backbone PhysicsUNet encodes degradation priors as potential energy, while PromptGenerator produces task-relevant prompts as momentum. These components define a Hamiltonian system whose vector field integrates inertial dynamics, decaying physical gradients, and prompt-based guidance. The system is optimized via a fixed-step ODE solver to achieve efficient and unified restoration across tasks. Experiments show that UniFlowRestore delivers stateof-the-art performance with strong generalization and efficiency. Quantitative results demonstrate that UniFlowRestore achieves state-of-the-art performance, attaining the highest PSNR (33.89 dB) and SSIM (0.97) on the video denoising task, while maintaining top or second-best scores across all evaluated tasks.

Although \textbf{L}abel \textbf{D}istribution \textbf{L}earning (LDL) has promising representation capabilities for characterizing the polysemy of an instance, the complexity and high cost of the label distribution annotation lead to inexact in the construction of the label space. The existence of a large number of inexact labels generates a label space with uncertainty, which misleads the LDL algorithm to yield incorrect decisions. To alleviate this problem, we model the uncertainty of label distributions by constructing a \textbf{L}atent \textbf{L}abel \textbf{D}istribution \textbf{G}rid (LLDG) to form a low-noise representation space. Specifically, we first construct a label correlation matrix based on the differences between labels, and then expand each value of the matrix into a vector that obeys a Gaussian distribution, thus building a LLDG to model the uncertainty of the label space. Finally, the LLDG is reconstructed by the LLDG-Mixer to generate an accurate label distribution. Note that we enforce a customized low-rank scheme on this grid, which assumes that the label relations may be noisy and it needs to perform noise-reduction with the help of a Tucker reconstruction technique. Furthermore, we attempt to evaluate the effectiveness of the LLDG by considering its generation as an upstream task to achieve the classification of the objects. Extensive experimental results show that our approach performs competitively on several benchmarks.
